Our names are Chris and Christine. We recently moved to Gundiah Qld and acquired a beautiful piece of land (approx. 320 acres) with about 70 acres of picturesque camping located on the Mary River. Our property is located halfway between Gympie and Maryborough (approx. 20 minutes from the Bruce Highway) tucked away down a private road which is lovely and peaceful. We have some walking trails located on the Camp Grounds to take in the scenery, or for the more adventurous located behind the office are longer walking trails with spectacular views at the top. There is a bike track and playground with Mini Putt Putt to keep the kids amused! Currently an RC track in the making for the remote 4WD enthusiasts. Easy access to the Mary River if you would like a spot of fishing, swimming or kayaking. Keep your eye out for the platypus and Mary River Turtles. We also have fire pits available at most sites with plenty of free firewood to collect around the property. Your fury friends are more than welcome but for the safety of them and others must be on a lead at all times. We are located about 50 minutes from Gympie, an hour 15 minutes from Rainbow Beach and or Hervey Bay and 45 minutes from Maryborough. The town of Tiaro is only 15 minutes down the road which has a Foodworks, Pub, United Fuel and Cafe. Don't forget the local Gundy Pub is only 5 minutes down the road. Great atmosphere and meals "tell them we sent you". Gundy Getaway is the perfect place to get back to basics and enjoy the peace and serenity.

Great place to camp at Gundy Getaway, peaceful camping under the trees and on a well maintained camp ground overlooking the Mary River. Hosts Chris and Christine are lovely people and are happy to share any info on the area. Keen to do another couple of days there again soon.

THE GUMS
Great weekend away
Great quiet place to stay for a few days the Gums is easy access for a motorhome. There is some nice walking, the Mary river is easily accessible via the wide track to it, the river is deeps enough to cool of and there looks to be some nice paddling to be had going upstream.

Gundy Getaway what an absolute beautiful spot . Heaps of camping spots to choose from. Toilets showers fire pits. A very beautiful fresh water flowing creek to have a swim fish or kayak in. Definitely a hidden little gem that's for sure. Chris the owner is an absolute lovely bloke very easy going and super friendly and helpful. If you're looking for a beautiful camping trip away in the bush Definitely 100% visit the Gundy Getaway Camp Ground you will not be disappointed 🏕🍻👍

A kayak angler's Nirvana
Chris & Christine's property is along a magnificent stretch of the Mary River that even includes a section of rapids. "The Mary" is home to some of Australia's most loved freshwater sportfish, bass, Sooty Grunter, Saratoga and of course, the Mary River Cod. It is a kayak angler's Nirvana as "Gundy Getaway" has good access to the river where other camping grounds do not because of the river's very steep banks. This is our first stay at "Gundy Getaway and although the fishing was reportedly "tougher than usual" my brother and I still managed to catch quality bass and sooties with both surface and diving hard body lures. There are some big fish in the river that live in fallen timber along the river's banks and some were unstoppable. The camping grounds are excellent with lots of flat areas and plenty of room to spread out and relax. We are hooked and will definitely be back!
