Platypus Bushcamp

The Platypus Bush Camp is one of the most unique accommodation destinations on the east coast. Amazing bush walking tracks, bird watching, swimming holes, friendly family owned property. Its luxury bush camping huts are one of a kind. Plenty of space for caravans or campers

Loved staying here, beautiful secluded camp in the rainforest. Lots of wildlife, beautiful swimming pot, wish we could have spent more time here. Easy to get to. Went to the pinnacle family hotel (12mins away) for dinner. We really liked the shower shack. The Camp is so unique, would highly recommend!

Great campsite, a slice of paradise in the perfect location. Super close to beautiful waterfalls in the national park, toilets and showers were clean and pleasant to use. There is a perfect swimming hole on the property as well.

You do have to drive over a couple of shallow rivers to get there, we managed ok in our campervan, but might have been a different story if the water levels were higher.

A true paradise in a stunning location. The place has a good atmosphere with cosy shared areas and well-maintained amenities. The hot showers with a tropical view are definitely worth mentioning!

Stayed only for one night but can highly recommend Platypus Bushcamp. It’s situated along a creek. I wasn’t lucky enough to spot a platypus but maybe you are luckier than me. It’s a beautiful place to wake up and spend your morning.
The camp is very neat and set up with thought. There’s an outdoor seating area where you can enjoy your morning coffee.
On the other side you’ll find 4 flushable toilets and 2 showers. What else do you need?
Thank you Shane for setting this up and being such a welcoming host.

Highly recommend this amazing hidden gem.
Shane has turned this into a beautiful place in the jungle. Perfect swimming Creek, charming communal area with hammock to hang back in and toilets and showers with an amazing view. It has a short bushwalk to spot platypus. This is the first place where we wanted to stay longer than we booked for

Great campsite with amazing facilities (2 kitchens, hammocks, fireplace, toilets and even hot showers) for a fair price. Owner is a great guy that even helped us to cross a river after heavy rainfall using his trailer because we were in a rush.

Didn't stay but walked around and I'm definitely coming back for this spot. Right next to a platypus habitat and GREAT hiking. My buddy and I walked to the waterfall and saw so many things along the way. We found snakes, goannas, lizards, bugs, birds, and more. I love this place and I would reccommend coming for a treehouse stay and a camp fire.

A brilliant campsite perfectly positioned a short drive from Finch Hatton Gorge.

My partner Sophia and I stayed here for three nights and absolutely loved our experience.

Falling asleep to the sound of the rushing waters of the nearby creek, and waking up with a refreshing morning swim was truly idyllic.

The bushcamp itself has a great feel, and this is largely testament to what Shane and his crew have created.

Shane is such a lovely, exciting guy and a superb host. Always checked in on everyone on his strolls through the campsite, and went above and beyond to help us out when we needed it most.

Heavily recommend this place to anyone looking to explore the beauty of the Eungella National Park.

It is one of our favourite places we stayed on our trip around Australia. The rainforest was beautiful we swam in the river. George Hatton gorge just up the road, loved the outdoor showers great hosts just so relaxing

Very cosy stay. Great facilities with outdoor showers. There is a creek near the camping where you can go swimming.

Beautiful spot! Amazing clean toilets and hot showers. Pet and kid friendly. Lovely owners. Fire flies and cute creatures… not far from the gorge and great places to visit/eat in finch hatton, pinnacle and eungella. Perfect getaway

Cannot recommend this place more!! We truly have never been anywhere as beautiful as this, definitely head out if you're considering it!!

Get back to basics with Wazza at the bush camp. No electricity no mobile service, it was so relaxing. Went for a swim in the creek pool, cold & invigorating. Take a short walk to spot a platypus if you’re lucky. Open camp fire, toilets & showers. About 2km to the cascades & other waterfalls @ Finch Hatton.

Heaven on earth!
The owner is awesome, the camp is beautiful, and the facilities are terrific 👌
Just come and enjoy the creek in the camp and go to the amazing gorge in the morning you won't regret it.

This place is just amazing! Hard to find a place where's nature treated so well while sharing it with campers. I loved to sit at the beautiful pool and watch the platypus. Wazza was exceptional friendly and I hope we'll see again one day. Greetings to Rocky and Dog🧡

Second time visiting. Most tranquil place ever, currently doing a lap of Aus and this is probably our favourite spot.

Wazza is a legend, the place is gorgeous. Thanks for having us again, we’ll see ya next time ! 😄

Most amazing spot on the whole QLD coastline! What a special experience with excellent facilities. There couldn’t be a complaint if you tried! Don’t miss the chance to stay here.

Great campsite by a beautiful creek. We were lucky enough to see a platypus briefly which was awesome. A friendly campsite with communal campfire. Lots of interesting bird life and really close to the Finch Hatton Gorge walks. We were impressed with Wazza’s care for the environment. Useful amenities. Wazza’s dog was a sweetheart. Would stay again!

The most beautiful, exciting and nature connected campsite I have ever been to

Everything simple but super lovingly designed

With a fireplace, access to a swimming area on the river and a cozy lounge area you feel directly welcome and secure

I can recommend this place to everyone
