Recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp is great for families and kids.
With an heavy heart 22 April will be our LAST night for Hipcamp. Paul Wilkinson, owner of Latin Shak in Samford has complained relentlessly about our business to Council n this time it is about our popular camping so we are forced to stop because of his vexatious nature n jealousy of our successful business. So…BOOK NOW before the 22th to celebrate our last few weeks. In 2026 we will apply thru Council for a camping permit n fingers crossed they appreciate the stunning location for families. We will need letters of support to Council NOW n THEN to counter the opposition letters Paul is already accumulating. Support a family friendly business owned n loved by locals.
Purchased in 2022, the property is slowly being returned to her former glory as a stunning tree lined, creek haven teeming with wildlife, flora and bird life.
What we offer-
1. Enclosed Kids Space, very very tame sheep, goats, chickens, ducks, turkeys n geese and a jumping castle onsite which is open 9am to 2pm daily. (Note: campers can use for free)
2. Our licenced cafe onsite is open from 7am and serves delicious coffee, breakfasts, lunches, cold beer and on Friday nights - fish n chips! Got a group? We can make dinner for you with notice. Want a cold beer while the kids play in the kids space? We have it here for you.
3. Your camping area creek side is for tent camping only. The sites are a metre from the tree lined creek edged with giant granite boulders and water running most of the year. Cross the sandy creek bed by 4wd to unpack your tent and set up. Your car can be parked safely next to it.
4. Have a pop top? Then we have spaces in a more public space next to a narrow creek spot depending on your size.
5. What else? We have a shower n toilet located a short walk from your site via torch light or bring your own portable toilet. Town water is available as well.
6. Tennis court available to play on or for the kids to run on. Just book a time with us when you are here. We charge $20 an hour.
Please note that we are next to a road and as such, you will have some road noise so as much as the location is highly convenient if you want absolute silence, this is not the place for you.
Nestled in a scenic spot, this campground offers a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere with plenty of activities for kids, including a mini farm and a jumping castle. Visitors rave about the crystal-clear creek, ideal for cooling off, and the on-site café serving delightful meals. While most guests appreciate the spacious sites and immaculate facilities, some noted that amenities like toilets and sinks can be a bit of a walk from certain areas. The hosts, Ingrid and Steve, are consistently praised for their warm hospitality, making this a welcoming spot for both humans and pets.
Great setup, even better hosts! What a gem so close to Brisbane! Thanks for giving us so much time and making us feel at home. Wonderful experience for kids.
Great spot to camp with the family. Plenty of swimming, exploring, farm animals and even a cafe and jumping castle. Morning coffee was fabulous and the hosts where lovely. Would be great if the female shower had better privacy other then just frosted glass.
We camped on sites 6 & 7 with 5 adults & 5 children, the serenity was great, slight road noise but did not bother any of us at all there was a fantastic amount of bird life to listen to that over shone the cars. Kids spent a lot of time either in with the animals (ducklings were my son’s favourite) or swimming in the creek, we took little blow up boats & that was a hit! Cafe food was delicious, Moreton Bay Bugs were soooo good! Then they also had cocktails for $10 at 5pm & again so delicious. Both Steve and Ingrid were both so friendly & approachable. Only thing I’d pick on if I had to was the state of the bathrooms, old & not very clean but I will still be back despite this as the rest of the place was so good 😊
This place is incredible! The hospitality from Steve and Ingrid was fantastic and we enjoyed our stay with them.
The campsites were spacious and the kids loved playing in the creeks and exploring the site.
Highly recommend and we will definitely be back!
Absolute stunning spot.. we booked in late and they were very accomodating. The property was well
Looked after , everything was great.
Two very nice people , and will definitely be coming back again and again
We loved our stay here! The hosts were lovely, the site is beautiful and it’s located so close to everything. We went with our 2.5 year old and 8 month old, and stayed in a tent near the creek. The 2.5 year loved playing in the creek, the petting farm and bouncy castle were also a hit.
We loved the on-site cafe, which had delicious food and great coffee.
We have already recommended to friends and will definitely be returning.
