    We had the best time staying here with our 3 kids! Heidi and Mike were great hosts and we felt very lucky that they opened up their perfect little campsite by the creek for us to stay. Campsite was perfect, grassy bottom, shady trees, creek access, very safe for young kids, beautiful wildlife and plenty of firewood! It was like pressing the reset button on life! Which is just what we needed. Thanks again we will be back!

    Just Perfect
    10 ft pop-up camper
    Just beautiful. So peaceful and private. Luscious green lawn and a tranquil creek to cool off in right next to camp. Loads of wildlife to spot and butterfies so thick you wouldn't believe. Firewood supplied so jacket potatos for dinner are a winner. What a gem of a place. Will be back for sure. Thanks Heidi and Mike

    Such a beautiful private camp site on Malanda Creek. This was my second visit, both my kids and I absolutely loved it. Well kept, beautiful grassy area with plenty of space for the kids to roam.

    We loved camping by the creek at this camp site. The access was easy in our 2wd car, wide open grassed space with shady trees and lovely breeze. Firewood and fireplace provided was a lovely touch. Highlight of the trip was definately seeing platypus and turtles in the creek and a pademelon hopping around in the evening. And an so many beautiful butterflies.
