Harper Creek Road and Harper Creek criss cross one another as you drive through the valley. The ridges either side of the road are largely timbered, whereas the valley floor is productive land. The large property is located towards the end of this no-through-road, almost at the end of the line. While the property has dual access from both Engle Rd at the top & Harper Creek Rd, we enter from the valley. Camping on the top block is also available for 4WD vehicles only and not suited to large caravans. Campers are required to be self-contained with their own toilet/shower facilities and must take all waste and rubbish with them on departure. Campfires are welcome in the fire pits with firewood provided or BYO. The mid-1900’s cottage sits in an idyllic setting, framed by the trees. The cottage is not yet available for Farm stays but will be soon. The location, vegetation and topography provide the privacy, the fauna & birdlife (the Bellbirds) combine to provide the solitude. Harper Creek cuts through the front corner of the property where it is met by a minor creek that drains the high country. You want more … how about a total of 115 acres (46.42 ha). While it is predominantly well-treed, it does have some cleared camping opportunities. It is watered by the creeks and one dam. There’s a great camping site at the top of the block, with a fantastic view! The property is off Aherns Rd, close to the village of Conondale and mid-way between Maleny & Kenilworth. With good access to the freeway via either Maleny or Kenilworth.… a perfect bush camping spot in a perfect setting! Pets welcome, please ensure they are kept under control and picked up after.Harper Creek Road and Harper Creek criss cross one another as you drive through the valley.

Stargazing and Peace
Such a wonderful and secluded area. Very quiet near the end of a gravel road. The property is huge and includes a rainforest and walk with a freshwater stream. Definitely recommended. Bottom sites are flat and great for watching the stars at night due to low levels of light pollution.

The top block with kids and the dog
The top block at Max's Farm is a wonderfully secluded camping spot in a large clearing up on the ridge. A big fire pit is provided and the view west out over the valley is superb.

Had the privilege of camping here for the long weekend. Warren was a lovely host and gave us a tour of the property on his buggy, showing us each campsite. He was even kind enough to offer some firewood when we had realised we forgot to stop for some on the way! The land was beautiful and my partner and I loved waking up and seeing the local wildlife. Was also dog friendly and a great place to introduce our puppy to the camping life.

If you love getting in to nature, being completely off grid and isolated there are some great spots at Max’s place. You’ll have to be fully self sufficient and need a 4wd to get to the best spots. Max is friendly and helpful and is working towards making this one of the best spots in the hinterland. Halfway between Maleny and kenilworth and close enough to the walks at both Conondale and Maleny it’s a great place to base yourself.
