Ben Lomond Station is an 1800 acre working cattle station 25 minutes south of Bowen and 35 minutes north of Airlie Beach on the Whitsundays. We border onto Eden Lassie Creek which has tidal ocean access for saltwater fishing and there is an abundance of estuary fishing and crab spots available. We are a nature based camping area. Cleared shady camping spots are available for fully self contained campers as there are currently no facilities available so you must have own camping toilet and leave no trace. Access to the camping area is for 4WD only with caravans off road and high clearance. Firewood is available for a small fee or you can collect any fallen timber yourself. There is a ban on cutting down any standing timber even it is dead. There is plenty of room to run for the kids and dogs though we do ask that your pet not annoy our cattle or other campers. Ben Lomond station has an abundance of flora and fauna such as burdekin plum trees, mango trees, wallabies, kangaroos and bird and fish species.

Ben Lomond Station is a peaceful escape into nature, offering vast camping sites where privacy reigns supreme. Visitors rave about the fishing and crabbing opportunities, with hosts Rob and Colleen providing helpful tips and warm hospitality. The camping experience is rustic with no electricity or running water, but the wildlife sightings, including cows, kangaroos, and bandicoots, add to the charm. While the access road can be rough, the tranquility and space make it a worthwhile retreat for campers seeking solitude.

Site 6 Cattle camp

Ben Lomond Station was a great stay. We had access to the tidal creek for fishing and crabbing. Colleen was a great with the directions and flexibility of sites. Camps are well spaced out.

Site 4 Gum Tree Flat

Camping pour ceux qui aiment la nature. Pas d'électricité, pas d'eau , ni douche ou toilettes. Mais, plein de vaches, chevaux, kangourous et wallabis ! Et il faut un 4X4, l'accès est difficile.
