We have a 1400 acre cattle and goat farm offering a lovely iconic bush camping getaway with creek, river and bush camping areas, great for nature lovers and those who enjoy peace and quiet, you can also enjoy the lovely views from the high spots on property. There is access to shared swimming holes, wildlife and bush walks on the property, bring your mountain bikes to ride and explore. There is plenty to do in the surrounding area! The property backs onto the Turon National Park and you will pass the Gardens of Stone National Park at the turn off to property (popular 4WD destination). It's a short drive to the absolutely spectacular Capertee Valley lookout which is the widest and second largest canyon in the world and also very popular for bird watching. You can also take a drive down to Glen Davis Shale Oil Works ruins or spend the day with a trip to the Mudgee Vineyards for some wine sampling! Or simply just kick back and enjoy the peacefulness of country life and take in the amazing star display at night. 4WD access.Bush Camping on a working Cattle & Goat Farm (If your looking for manicured grounds, This is Not the Camp Site for You as Feed is Precious to us), Great camping getaway to get back to nature, with lovely views from the high spots on property, creek, river & bush camping areas, Shared swimming holes, wildlife, bush walks, bring your mountain bikes to ride and more. 4WD  Vehicle is required to reach camping destinations....  Property is NOT a 4WD Playground !!!

Great weekend
Tent · Group trip
We had a great time at Como Valley. Amazing property and secluded camp sites. We also were lucky enough to have a swimming hole right next to us. You definitely need a 4x4 to get to the sites though - steep hills and loose rocks on the road. Would recommend!

Isolation camping sites.
1 m pop-up camper
Camping sites were very spread out along the river on property. The river was not running at this time of year (March 2025). The farm was set a fair way from main roads and had a complete isolation feeling to it. This was my first Hipcamp experience so I have nothing to compare to.

We had a perfect weekend away at Como Valley. We enjoyed a swim in Jews creek and explored the 4wd track around the property. A great place for a peaceful getaway.

We loved camping on Kellie's land. So peacefull and serene next to the creek, views amazing. No one around us. Our puppy enjoyed chasing the butterflies and playing with the baby fish in the creek. It was truly a great experience!

Incredible camping on a beautiful property! I recently camped at the waterhole site and was lucky enough to have what felt like the entire place to myself. The drive in to camp was great, amazing scenery, going past the cattle and through a couple of small water crossings. Fantastic clear water holes that made for a refreshing dip in the heat of the day. Plenty of firewood around the property to collect for the evening. Loved watching all the roos come out to graze as the sun set. Great host, great campground! Thanks again Kellie.
