Yabba creek Farm is one of three Hipcamps along this stretch of Yabba Creek. To the west is Maluka Park - runner up Hipcamp 2022 and finalist 2023 in Australia.
To the east is Yabba Ridge with an abundance of unique animals you can see across the paddock from Yabba Creek Farm.
These campsites are really hidden gems. Be sure to book early as we are gaining popularity with limited bookings available.
Camps are spaced out along a manicured 300m creek frontage. There is a total of 1km creek frontage on Yabba Creek Farm for your to explore.
Attractions include kayaking - provided and are free to use, hiking in adjacent Imbil state forest and wildlife watching. Platypus are frequently sighted in the Yabba creek. Lungfish can also be viewed while kayaking or snorkelling. Koalas, wallabies, gonnas and an abundance of bird life are also commonly sighted.
Dogs are welcome on very strict conditions as we have farm animals including, chickens, horses and a turkey, so must remain secure on a leash at all times. Dogs with hunting or chasing nature are not welcome for the safety of our animals and wildlife.

Camping at Yabba Creek Farm on the Hidden Gem site was great. We had a lovely view of the creek and access to the creek was steep but doable even for the 3 year old we had with us. Our site was very spacious and private. We had a fair bit of rain but the site was well grassed and the rain ran off well. The free use of kayaks was terrific and the creek is lovely to paddle along. Kaylea and Dean were very welcoming and they maintain the camp very well. We loved seeing the beautiful blue kingfishers along the creek.

What a spot!
This is an excellent spot for kids! The description is very accurate of included facilities and what's available. Our favourite parts were the included kayaks, beautiful creek with easy access by foot and animal visits in the mornings (our toddlers LOVED this part). The views are truly spectacular and it's one of the most well kept campsites we've been to. Would highly recommend (but also please stay away so it's available for us again 😝). Thank you for sharing your slice of paradise and little farm creatures with us.
