A quiet rural location on flat ground with camping within the cleared bushland setting, or open orchard.
Multiple shaded areas, and plenty of open areas to recharge the solar batteries.
Sealed road right up to the property. Google maps will get you there. Look for the driveway with the Thyme Travellers signs and flag.
We are 10klm from the beaches of Emu Park on main highways - 14klm to Yeppoon, 30klm to Rockhampton and only 4klm to the outdoor Tree House Tavern in Cawarral where you can have lunch in the beer garden with a drink or 2.
A 15 minute drive will get you to the marina where you can catch the ferry to Great Keppel Island where you swim and snorkel with the dolphins and turtles or just marvel at the abundance of fish and marine life.
On our property, fire pits are provided free of charge for quiet nights under the stars. Bags of split fire wood can be purchased from the office.
3 covered camp kitchens, with free gas BBQ, are located within easy access to wherever you camp.
Different varieties of chickens are located around the property, within their own yards, and hens free range after 2 pm ( our 1 remaining rooster is caged ) with gentle Clydesdale and Percheron heavy horses, Australian Lowline (miniature cows), Pygmy, and Nigerian Dwarf goats to pat.
Self shedding sheep spot the property. Permanent shower block with 2 separate gas hot water showers - with further basic shower units dotted about should you not wish to walk to the central showers, but with good pressure and gas hot water. Toilets are portaloos that are cleaned daily, and due to be replaced with permanent toilets within the next 2 months. Pet friendly, but must be on a lead due to livestock. Potable water, but no hook ups to vans due to high pressure pumps.
We a still a work in progress - adding further environmentally friendly amenities and more fruit trees for visitors as we progress.
Having only opened to the public in April 2024.
NO electricity available.
Office is located at the far end of the driveway into the property.
I came for a night and finally stayed 3 weeks !
The place has everything I was looking for : It's affordable, calm and functional.
Thank you Michelle 🙏
loved our time at Michelle’s farm, Michelle unfortunately wasn’t there but they have a legend looking after the farm Zac looked after us, such a lovely guy, and showed us around the camp site, Thankyou Zac for making our stay special :)
Lovely space, plenty of room for multiple campers. Kids loved all the friendly chickens and patting the goats and horses. The camp kitchen areas with BBQ and sinks were very welcome. We originally booked cockatoo corner but ended up staying near the mango orchard as it was shadier/cooler and close to all the chickens.
