    The best camp site I’ve ever stayed at. Jodie’s property is beautiful. We had lots of privacy and our own section of creek to swim in. Jodie was accommodating and great company. her dogs, blue and hammer are great too. They played and swam with our dog. Can’t wait to go back there at some point. Highly recommend

    It was great to have private access to each camp site along the river. Also, the waterfalls on the property were truly amazing and very relaxing for a one-day stay. I would definitely return again.

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at this incredible camping spot nestled by a crystal-clear creek, surrounded by lush rainforest. This place is nothing short of magical. The gentle sound of the creek flowing provided the perfect natural soundtrack, creating an atmosphere of peace and relaxation. The campsite itself was well-maintained, with enough flat, shaded areas to pitch a tent comfortably. The proximity to the creek was perfect for cooling off during the day, and sitting by the water as the sun set was truly enchanting. I highly recommend this camping spot to anyone seeking a serene, back-to-nature experience. Just be sure to leave it as you found it to keep this hidden gem pristine for future adventurers!

    Jodie really is living her best life ! Words can't describe how beautiful and calming her land is , we stayed at FNQ Blooms and never wanted to leave ! You can see how proud she is of the land by the way she maintains & preserves it. If you're travelling with dogs, Jodie does have two beautiful dogs but they're very friendly and your dogs will be welcomed. She has her very own private waterfall and the hike to it isn't that strenuous. We will definitely be saving this location for next time. Thank you Jodie 😊.

    We absolutely loved our beautiful camp amongst the heleconia & ginger flowers alongside the refreshingly cool crystal clear mountain stream. Our host Jodie was extremely welcoming & friendly and invited us to watch her pollinating the vanilla flowers, as well as giving us great info on the production of vanilla. Luckily for us, we were even able to purchase some pure organic vanilla essence whilst we were there...such an immersive & relaxing experience ❤️. Thank you Jodie, Hammer & Blue for sharing your beautiful property with us, we loved our stay 😀
