Tent

Loved my camp, very pretty setting by creek, ideal for a dip. Lots of private camp spots, just a short drive to Broken river national park and platypus. Need to be fairly self sufficient, entry road a little rough so definitely 4wd or if a pretend 4wd ( like my RAV4) that your not to precious about! Great hosts, even bought me a sourdough bread from their bakery. Looking forward to my next visit!

This is a truly breathtaking campsite situated up the mountain in Eungella. All the campsites are secluded and quite tranquil — you’d never know other people were around. We were absolutely wowed by the natural beauty surrounding us.

Magical

22 ft travel trailer

This is a magical place. We spent a day beside a newborn lamb and a river with rock pools. Too cold to swim. But when we got into a bit of strife when leaving, Adam arranged for his fabulous neighbours, Mary and Doug, to help pull us out of a ditch. They were amazing. We just loved the time we spent here.

We love camping at Hillbilly Farm. Its so peaceful, and the grounds are well-kept. The creek is lovely for a swim during the warmer months. Adam and Ali are very welcoming, and go out of their way to ensure you have a great stay
