A beautiful piece of pristine nature where creek runs through to beach. Escape, unwind and feel a world away while only being 45 mins north of all the camping resources you could need in Townsville. Ollera Creek Eco Retreat is situated on 6000 acres of private, coastal bush property on the Bruce Highway just south of Mutarnee. We are a small & sustainable working cattle property at the foothills o
f Paluma & Mt Spec. Our camping areas are nestled alongside creek or beach with shady trees and providing beautiful sounds of nature in the mornings & evenings. We offer limited sites varying in size in order to provide a quiet camping experience with lots of space. We have about 40 sites to choose from that cater for couples, families, small & larger groups. Our Creekside sites are accessible by 2WD vehicles with enough room for vans. Our beachside sites are only accessible by 4WD, campertrailers & tents. Please see our site locations & descriptions to determine what best suits your circumstances. Enjoy some wildlife watching, including kangaroos, birds, lizards and if you’re astute enough perhaps catch a glimpse of the endangered Mahogony Glider that famously resides here. During nesting season you might be lucky enough to witness baby turtles making a dash across the sand for their first voyage into the sea! Have a dip & cool off upstream in Ollera Creek which meanders through the property but beware of our prehistoric friend, the saltwater crocodile that inhabits our beaches & estuary (where we also happen to have some great fishing)! Chill out with our cows, dig holes, fossick for rocks, shells or treasures the sea might bring. Bring a hammock and gaze at the clouds, treetops & butterflies frolicking about or sit back with a bevvie and gaze at the starlit skies in the glow of your campfire. Please talk to us about bringing your house pet too, they must be pre-approved but are welcome as long as they are restrained to your campsite, no hunting dogs allowed. There is a service station just down the road at Bluewater & if you don’t feel like cooking you can catch a great meal & vibe at the Rollingstone Hotel, just a few kilometres from our front gate (a courtesy bus can even be arranged!). Please have fun but respect your neighbours, our property suits family friendly, respectful campers who want peace and quiet (not those who wish to run amok). We are open for campers now & look forward to seeing you soon!
