Isolated heaven near Sydney

Cassie and the camping site was just amazing. It is a perfect spot to go as a couple (which we did) and it would also suit if you are going with friends and families. I would totally recco this site and Cassie and might go again.

Stunning hipcamp!
Tent
This place is absolutely stunning, the photos don't do it justice. Absolutely amazing as a relaxing weekend away as a couple (like we did) or I'm sure just as great as a small group. The bath is a real treat whilst camping!

Outdoor glamping at its best
Tent · With kids
The property is a slice of paradise, we were immersed in the sounds of nature and beautiful scenery and stars during the nights. We sat by our cosy camp fire and ate like royalty with not a soul to bother us, my kids absolutely loved the outdoor bath looking over the Colo River

Deluxe camping
Tent · Group trip
Great escape away from the city, camping at its best with no neighbor campers (only wildlife), we enjoyed having the full site and well maintained facilities to ourselves. Nothing beats relaxing in a hot bath on a cold morning with the river valley view with kangaroos jumping nearby. Our wonderful hosts Cassie and Adrian were super accommodating providing us with more wood and other items. Thank you.

We spent the weekend at the campsite; it was super lovely, the toilet cabin/area was a game changer, and the outlook from the bath was great. The property felt safe and secluded. There is lots of wildlife and a good mix of activities with walks, the river and the campfire set up. Would recommended
