Located between Rockhampton and Emu Park beach. 711 Thompson Point Road Nankin Our campsites are located in a rural setting with plenty of shady trees, friendly cows and mountain views close to the Fitzroy River. Relax around a campfire on a peaceful dam and listen to the kookaburras. Dip your toes into the cool water whilst sipping watching the sunset. It is 10km to the upgraded Fitzroy River/Thompson Point boat ramp and pontoon. Enjoy some excellent fishing and crabbing on the river, bird watching and bush walking up the many hills.

Second time visit
This was our second time at Ian and Tracy’s and again it was a perfect little get away for us close to home. This time was a lot busier but everyone is always respectful. Was nice to pull a few red claw yabbies out of the dam and cook them up fresh for lunch.

Beautiful place
It is a beautiful place, really peaceful , not too crowded. The entrance is by the road with a flag, not the one indicated in google maps. The shower is outside but with hot water, which is amazing. Bring repellent! Love it, I’ll totally come back

Ian was a amazing host helping us to settle down in the new place and the picturesque location does not need any lauding. The host tried his best to answer all our questions patiently. Thank you.
