The campsite is situated on the beach, sheltered by the sheoaks in the back dunes. At the rear of the campsite lies a freshwater lagoon, locally known as the keyholes. Currently, there are four sites available to be booked. There is a camp kitchen with a two gas burner, all pots and pans, plates and cutlery with table and chairs to sit at. There is also a big esky there to use for either your food or drinks. Fresh water is provided in twenty litre drums. The bush shower works on the keg being heated up just like a kettle. Once it is hot then a nice warm shower is to be had to wash off all the salt from the ocean. There is also two compost toilets for your convenience. A unique feature includes the opportunity for surfing, fishing, and swimming in your private lagoon. A short drive will take you to Point Lookout. 10 minutes and you are at the pub mixing with the locals. Access is via the beach only and tides are a consideration. Please check "Point Lookout tides" on Willy Weather. I don't normally travel on the beach if the tide is over 1.5 metres. A 4 wheel drive vehicle is required. Camper trailers can be brought in as they are light. Caravans are not permitted due to the tight turning circles.

The sky changes from pale blue to dark blue, and the horizon changes from vibrant golden to orange, and you’ll forget that you are in this world during the twilight time. Makes you feel like you’re in Heaven! After sunset, a sky full of stars appears there. The countless glittering stars are just natural planetariums. On sunny nights, especially near the new moon, the entire night sky becomes a sea of stars. Feel the eternal flow of time under all the constellations, the Milky Way, the nebulae, and the shooting stars found in the Southern Hemisphere.As the sun rises, there is a morning mist coloured by the sunrise. After enjoying breakfast in the magnificent nature, stroll through the nearby mountains and beautiful rainforests.

Perfect stay. Kathryn and Phil have been so thoughtful in the way they have set up the cabin and surrounding area. The cabin and facilities were super-clean, and stocked with everything you would need. Even the fires were pre-sticker with kindling. And the fresh bread was incredible. Thanks so much for a lovely stay, I will be back :)

From the very first interaction, Kathryn and Phil set the tone for an unforgettable experience. Their warm and thoughtful communication included a delightful surprise: they asked for my preferred type of bread. What arrived was the best gluten-free bread I have ever tasted—fresh, flavourful, and clearly made with care. The site itself was pure magic. I stayed during the night of the last full moon of 2025, and the peacefulness of the surroundings was almost otherworldly. The clawfoot bathtub under the stars was a highlight—soaking in warm water while gazing at the moonlit sky felt like a dream come true. To top it all off, I enjoyed my first viewing of Love Actually for 2025 on a big screen set up in the bush. Watching a classic film in such a unique setting added a cozy, cinematic touch to an already enchanting evening. Mystic Adventures is more than a campsite—it’s an experience crafted with heart and attention to detail. Highly recommended for anyone seeking tranquility, a touch of luxury, and unforgettable memories.

Craig was very kind and helpful with getting me into the musings of Brisbane by Ferry. Water is there. Power for those who need it. It is a safe place and the highway can be heard at night, but not felt. So, when I need a place within Brisbane again, I believe this is an affordable Option for some days.

We took our new camping trailer out to test it out. The property is beautiful and green. Well maintained. The toilet was clean and looked after. It is close to town and perfect for a quick escape. Peter was freindly and we felt welcome. Due to the recent weather in qld we recomend insect repelent. With a mozzie coil going we had no bugs. Lots of bird life and we enjoyed watching them. We didnt see much other wildlife and had no issues with any pests or overly freindly natives. There was a breeze the whole time we were there which is perfect. Fire areas are well set up.

We loved camping in our caravan at Oz Sky Ranch. We had a perfect flat spot on 3A right next to the lake. The view was beautiful. There was a clean portaloo right near our site and a shower/toilet block just like home only a short walk away. It was great to be able to swim in the lake and cool down. We really enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful little cabin tucked away amongst the trees, fully set up so you don’t need to leave. Kathryn and Phillip were so accomodating and really made the stay as easy and pleasant as possible. They made fresh bread for arrival and brought up water, ice and firewood when we ran low free of charge! They have built a beautiful fairy garden and look out point at the back which was lovely for a walk through. They really have put in a big effort with it! Outdoor bath was super lovely too by the fire. Highly recommend the property for all the amenities and what it offers and for how lovely Kathryn and Phillip are!

Overview

About

  • Accessible facilities are available, including toilets and picnic tables.
  • Bring your own drinking water, as tap water may require treatment.
