Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Welcome to Safe Haven Campground, perfect for individuals, couples and groups of all sizes. An open site offers plenty of space and is designed to provide a peaceful retreat. Just 30 meters from the pristine waters of Kilcoy Creek, you’ll find several swimming holes with crystal clear water, perfect for a refreshing dip. Platypus have also been sighted here! Our semi-shaded, flat sites are ideal for tents, rooftop campers, small caravans, and RVs. Guests MUST bring their own toilet facilities. Conveniently located, we are only a 5-minute drive from the charming Crystal Water Cafe, which is open 7 days a week for tea, coffee, cake, and meals. They also have free public wifi if you require stable internet access. Access to the campsite is easy via a bridge over the creek. While you relax, enjoy sightings of local kangaroos, wallabies, and a variety of tropical birds. We look forward to welcoming you to Safe Haven Camp for a serene and enjoyable outdoor experience. Please note that our campsite is for adults only, and no children are permitted due to farm-related risks. We also have a strict no-drone policy

Unfortunately the site was not well kept, there was rubbish left by a previous user, (like a dead 15L fridge, beer bottles and other rubbish, I cleaned it out and put it at the front of the site. Additionally, it was very overgrown to get to the site, could have done with a slash to find the site with ease. This site could be really lovely with a bit more work, the sound of the creek was beautiful and restful. I have to admit that I was there when there was a weather event, it rained for 3 days prior so creeks were up and ground was soaked and sodden, but that is not the fault of the owner. My car had an issue and I had to leave in hurry on the beginning of my 3rd night, if I got suck in the site, it would have been a nightmare recovery, as the site was fabulously isolated. I would have liked to have lit a fire, but the wood available to purchase at the site was soaked even though in bags produced by the owner, unfortunately the tarp covering them wasn't doing a great job, as it was old and ratty. This needs work. Was it awesome...no. Was it bad... definitely not. Will I go back, its not ruled out, but if I see effort has been made, yeah, I would go back. Loved the seclusion.

Not our vibe. Grass overgrown. Small camp area. Supposed to stay 2 nights, decided to leave after one night. We wanted to go away for peace and quiet, all we heard at 8am in the morning was a hedge cutter about 5 mtrs away. Esky and hat from someones stay beforehand. Not worth $70+ we paid for 2 nights. Definitely overpaid. We won’t be back.

We had already booked our camping weekend prior to a knowing of Cyclone Alfred coming through Southeast Queensland. Hoping the conditions would still be suitable, we reached out to the host for confirmation and received a response indicating that "at the moment, the creeks are still high." This reply left us uncertain, prompting us to send two additional emails, both of which went unanswered. Undeterred, we proceeded to the property the day of our booking and once on the property encountered the need to remove large rocks from the creek crossing to allow our vehicles to pass. Once past and up the steep hill, we were met with a scene of utter chaos. We followed the signs leading to the Eucalypt camping area, but upon arrival, we questioned whether we had made a mistake; the camping area was unrecognizable. The grass was so thick—approximately three feet high—that our XL dog vanished beneath it. The site was littered with dead fallen trees and discarded camping gear from previous visitors, including a three-seater couch, a Waco fridge, and a fan. After inspecting other sites on the property, we found them to be in even worse condition. The overall state of the property was neglected, disorganized, and resembled a snake habitat, while also being a haven for mosquitoes and other insects. We were resolute in our decision to leave immediately, as there was no way we could remain in such an environment. This site should be removed from the Hipcamp app entirely, as it is unaccep

I actually didn't make it to stay at the property booked for the night due to car issues and no phone service atm, I was charged a fee for the nights stay and wasn't able to check in and stay, so unfortunately I am unable to give a review at this time. Hopefully I may stay sometime in the near future Thankyou Regards Karen Ryan

Beautiful serene location to relax & unwind but unfortunately we had to leave the sanctity of our campsite at 8am! No chance of a blissful sleep in with an angle grinder only 10m from us, closely followed by his generator! The No Drone & No kids policy was not evident - both were there with other guests. False advertising.
