    Enjoy the best of both worlds, being only a few minutes off the Hwy and 2km from the beach, yet tucked up within the privacy and serenity of 55 acres of beautiful bush and wetlands. The property is a safe haven for an abundance of wildlife, including kangaroos, wallabies, bandicoots, possums, squirrel gliders, snakes, leaf-tailed geckoes, 12 species of frogs and a multitude of birds. Communal facilities include a covered outdoor camp kitchen, an amenities block with composting toilet and hot showers, and a fire circle/ seating area. Activities on the property include: - birdwatching (see if you can add to our list of 50+ species so far!) - spotlighting for nocturnal wildlife - find a quiet spot to sit and soak up the peace of nature... perhaps by the tranquil wetland overflow wall - bushwalking around the perimeter of the endangered Swamp Sclerophyll Forest - private orienteering course (bring your compass! Takes 1-2 hours) -Light a fire under the cast-iron outdoor bath and soak away any stress Attractions close to the property include: - beautiful beaches only 2 km away, great for swimming, surfing or whale watching from the headland - State Forest 2km away, great for hiking and mountain biking - Woolgoolga 5km away, with great cafes and shops We are friendly, nature-loving couple who feel very lucky to be custodians of this special land. We look forward to sharing it with others who wish to step outside the busyness of mainstream life and deepen their connection to nature. Due to the amount of wildlife around, we do not allow pets.

    RV/tent site · Sleeps 5 · Vehicles under 32 ft
    Set up your home-on-wheels in a sunny clearing among the towering trees. There are two gravel parking bays to choose from, 8m and 10m long. This is the option to choose if you want vehicle-based camping: suitable for caravans, campervans, trailers, or simply camping with your car (including roof-top tents). The amenities block with composting toilet and hot showers is close by and there is also a covered outdoor kitchen and communal fire pit / seating area available if you wish to have a fire (no individual fires please).  Set on a 55-acre bush and wetland property, which supports an abundance of native wildlife, and the beach and State Forest are each only 2km away. Go to 'Yellow Butterfly' property profile for more information. To protect our wildlife, we do not allow pets.

    Book our entire private campground for your special gathering or event. Not available for parties where alcohol consumption is the central focus. We are keen to host conscious events where the intention is for people to connect with nature, themselves and each other. For example, camps, retreats, workshops, gatherings or ceremonies. Please contact us to discuss your idea. There is only a 24hr window for us to respond, so if you don't hear from us straight away, please try again as we may be off camping ourselves! :)

    Tent site · Sleeps 5
    For those wishing to camp in a tent or swag (i.e., not in/on/with your car), we have a couple of options: - Open grassy clearing on the left-hand side of the driveway as you come in (dispersed below the Home-On-Wheels bays). Parking is in the gravel bay opposite the amenities block (please don't park on the grass). There are a few little spots tucked in among the trees, so have a look around and take your pick. - Very own (mini) 'Big 4' camping area, which offers the full nature experience for those willing to set up a bit further from their vehicle (~100m). A shady glade surrounded by whispering Swamp Oaks and close to the wetland overflow wall, this area offers maximum peace and tranquility. It is walk-in only, but you can borrow a wheelbarrow to take your things down. If you'd like to take this option, park at the bottom of the driveway and follow the signs down from there. Have a look once you get here and decide where you'd like to be! Please note, these sites are for camping separately from your car. If you have a roof-top tent or wish to camp right next to your car, you will need to book one of our 'Home on Wheels' sites. Only one vehicle per camp site, please. If you have additional vehicle(s), you will need to book another site. All camp spots have access to the covered outdoor kitchen, the communal fire pit / seating area and the amenities block (with hot showers and composting toilet). Fires only in communal fire area, please (no individual fires). Set on a 55-acre bush and wetland property, which supports an abundance of native wildlife, and the beach and State Forest are each only 2km away. Go to 'Yellow Butterfly' property profile for more information. To protect our wildlife, we do not allow pets.

    Nestled among tall trees, this campsite provides a serene escape with its eco-friendly amenities and well-maintained facilities. Guests often praise the hot showers, clean toilets, and the simple yet functional camp kitchen. The location is conveniently close to the highway, offering easy access while maintaining a peaceful atmosphere. However, some campers noted the presence of mosquitoes, so it's worth being prepared.

    Convenient stopover as it’s not too far off the highway (it feels remote, though!). Beautiful nature sounds, showers were lovely and hot, long drop toilet was clean and maintained. Hope to visit again when it’s less rainy, so we can enjoy one of the outdoor tubs :) thanks for a great stay!

    Camping surrounded by tall trees and not so blue sky at times was very relaxing. Loved the walk to the creek and the paperbarks. Very relaxing place to stay.

    Friendly hosts, lively spot, was really pleased with the facilities offered (simple but perfect camp kitchen, good toilet, great showers & fun bath!) Be prepared for the mozzies - we were able to simply move inside our tent as have space and needed to even with mozzi repellant & long clothing. Would stay again in back in the area :-)

    Had a lovely 3 night stay here while going to uni in Coffs. It’s quiet and really easy to get to. Facilities are also nice and I love the eco style! Bonnie’s it’s only about 5 minutes from Woolgoolga. Bring mozzie spray or citronella. Would definitely recommend :)

    Roughing it in comfort. It felt like we were deep into a tropical forest with all kinds of fascinating forest sounds during the day and night. And yet it was close to main roads and with showers and bathrooms and a camp kitchen a few steps away. Great experience for if you want less of the manicured campground experience and more of an adventure.

    Really enjoyed the quiet and beautiful campsite. Camp kitchen was very handy with the heavy rain - comfy and clean with all required amenities. Amazing array of birdlife too, including a resident melodic grey shrikethrush. Would be keen to know what type of tree the sacred tree was. Thank you!

    A lovely, neat, tranquil stay. My brother & I arrived late at night, but there was clear instructions that helped us navigate. Had it been daylight we wouldve also seen the cute handmade signs! The amenities were also skillfully crafted, and tidy, I had a warm shower in the morning - which had great pressure. Unfortunately we didn't have time to meet the hosts. I would definitely stay again!

    Easy to get to when travelling along the coast , lush sites for tents and small campervan. The bush facilities are marvellous and quirkily designed. The continual hum of the nearby freeway was a in the background but not really distracting.

    Lovely quiet spot. Really well equipped and clean kitchen. I used a tent and was very comfortable on the grass. I stayed during heavy rain and spotted leeches and noticed a lot of spiders taking refuge in the showers so beware if you are afraid of creepy crawlies. The kitchen felt sheltered and was a good spot to hang out and wait for the storms to pass. I would stay here again.

    I stayed overnight on my drive home to. Brisbane. I was happy to come across this property because it’s so close to the freeway. I was even happier when I was there, because you wouldn’t know it! This is a quiet bushy area with a large lawned area to pitch the tent. The amenities are home-built and beautifully creative. (Clearly talented people living here!) Unfortunately I didn’t stay to check out more of the place because it was one of those very wet nights where you just throw all your wet gear in the back of the car first thing in the morning and keep going. But I did see, in the camp kitchen, a looong list of birds that have been sighted. Something for the future perhaps. I also discovered Sandy Beach itself- a lovely beach for a walk.
