Fire wood is available to buy ($15 for a wheel barrow full) or you can collect your own from the property (fallen timber only) there are 4wd tracks around the property with each track being a loop back to camp.

Lifestyle Brisbane. Hipcamp Review

This past Australia Day long weekend, Hol & Johnson spent their time doing what they love most-exploring nature and relaxing in style. They stayed at a stunning spot nestled right on the banks of the Clarence River in NSW. The location completely blew them away with its incredible facilities, breath taking scenery, and tranquil vibes.

Hol & Johnson. Hipcamp Review

On The Clarence Camping exceeded all our expectations. The stunning natural beauty combined with the warm hospitality made our stay unforgettable. We will definitely be returning!

Mark Johnson. Hipcamp Review

We loved the location! The view over the river is amazing! The toilet and shower facilities were amazing! Can't wait to return again!

Brendon A. Recommended on Hipcamp

Beautiful scenic camping, spacious campground. Toilet facilities excellent even includes a dump point if required. Clarence River views and options for exploring and kayaking. Definetely would return.

Tony J. Recommends on Hipcamp

We had an absolutely awesome time getting away from the hustle and bustle. Relaxing at the camp next to the river and going for a swim made this location absolutely perfect, we could not recommend it more highly.

Matthew M. Recommends on Hipcamp
★★★★★

Absolutely amazing property overlooking the river. Generously spaced out campsites with great views and quick access to facilities. Wide range of 4wd tracks across the huge 1300 acres with the occasional “skid pad” to cut loose with mates. Ben and Grace are the most genuine honest owners and they will make your stay one to remember. Can’t wait to come back in the summer ????
