I spent a week here just me and my dog. I thoroughly enjoyed the serenity and friendly atmosphere. There are beautiful sunsets, lush green surroundings and sleeping next to the flowing stream was bliss.

This is my second time staying here, and will definitely be back again! Toilets are clean and well hidden, the camp kitchen has a usb port to charge your phone using solar. So nice sitting by the bubbling creek and reading a book.

Beautiful, quiet and comfortable

Tent · With kids

Beautiful, quiet and comfortable spot with plenty of room for the kids to play. They spent the day swimming and kayaking in the creek followed by cricket and marshmallows are the campfire. Short trip into Gympie to explore the town.

Peaceful, lovely running creek and close to Gympie for supplies. Whilst I didn’t need/use the camp kitchen, it was a shame to find it a little dirty with rubbish bin overflowing and quite a few empty beer bottles lying around. Otherwise a lovely spot with beautiful views.

Fantastic Spot

Tent · Group trip

Joel come out to meet us when we arrived to provide an introduction to the property and ensure we had everything we needed to get set up. The space was quiet, well equipped with plenty of room between each site.

16 ft pop-up camper

On arrival the camp area seemed suitable, large open area. However the ground is more suitable to tents or camping, rather than caravans. The toilet is unhygienic and inappropriate. The hot water system is non existent so no hot showers as posted on hipcamp. Apparently there is a light, tho we didn't find it. Most free camps have much better facilities than provided here. The $36/night fee is certainly misleading. I contacted Joel that evening and he offered showers in a shed down at his property. My 3 nights were refunded, minus the hipcamp fee. It was quite inconvenient to have to pack up and move to another park further away. We stayed in the area as I was playing in a bowls tournament. I showered at a truck stop in the morning.
