Recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp is great for families and kids.
Lake Atkinson Waterfront Camping & Animal Farm offers a family orientated, quiet rural escape for over night or short term stays. We have powered and unpowered camp sites available with glamping tents coming soon!
We welcome guests in camping tents, caravans, and camper trailers. We have an animal nursery where the kids can meet and feed the animals, bike tracks, walking trails and seasonal water sports for all our guests to enjoy.
Full amenities available and campfires are welcome in the fire pits provided. Pets are welcome but please keep them under control and respect other campers.
You can purchase wood-fired pizzas which we can deliver directly to your site!
We are located just a 1 hour drive from Brisbane city. With access to our pool and animal farm the fun never ends! If you are after a quiet weekend away with the kids or long term accommodation we are the perfect place for you!
There is a kiosk and cafe on site where you can find all your basic camping items.
The campsite has a mix of reviews, with many pointing out the need for better maintenance and cleanliness. Several guests praised the friendly and accommodating staff, but concerns were raised about rundown facilities and overgrown areas. Some reviewers noted issues with noise, unruly campers, and the presence of permanent residents, which affected the overall atmosphere. While the location offers potential with its lake views, it seems the campsite would benefit from some improvements to enhance the experience.
The host was friendly, but unfortunately, that was the only positive. The campsite looked nothing like the photos online. It was overgrown, with limited access to the lake through heavily overgrown areas. There were several permanent residents living in makeshift caravans, and the area was littered with rubbish. It didn’t feel like a proper campsite at all. Definitely not a place I’d recommend especially if you take the kids.
Worst park ever! Park needs serious clean up. Luckily our family had booked only 1 night. Emergency vehicles arrived through the night, I believe due to unruly campers. Disrespectful campers allow children to run wildly at night shining flashlights all over..parents need to be responsible and show some level of courtesy to other campers. Not a place for a quiet pleasurable stay. Management really need some rules in place. We should have read previous reviews before making a booking.
After staff telling us to pick any site as we were first there and setting up camp the manager asked us to move as he had promised this particular site to others.
We refused to move but would pack up and leave with a full refund. He agreed.
