Sitting around the campfire having a yarn and a beverage is one of the truly special aspects of bush camping. All of our sites now have inground fire pits. Fires are welcome unless a Fire Ban is in place during your visit. We prefer you use our firepits. Any other pits must be on legs (sit off the ground) and ash placed into our firepits on departure.
CampiresAt Murphys Creek Escape, a deep appreciation for animals is evident, as we warmly welcome dogs, horses, and other small animals. To ensure a smooth and organised experience, all animals brought onto the premises must be declared to the reception upon arrival. This allows the park staff to be aware of the presence of animals and make necessary arrangements to accommodate them. It’s important to note that additional site fees apply for dogs and horses. This fee helps cover the costs associated with providing suitable facilities and maintaining a safe environment for everyone.

Go BackpackingThe place is big, great for family and friends get together. The creek was running very well so was very relaxing sitting and listening to the running water with nature. The amenities are dated but are clean. At 4 p.m., they feed the lorikeets, which is great for kids and adults too. Good large fire pits. Great place to stay relax.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay over the school holidays. The view from the canyon top site was superb. The park was well kept and the amenities were great. The hottest shower I have every had at a camping park 👌 The kids had the best time with the well organised activities and loved the medium rope course. Will definitely be back again!
What a great find so close to Brisbane, Gold Coast. Secluded, quiet (apart from the occasional train). Beautiful birds and so many varieties. The creek is beautiful and our first siting of a snake on our travels. The powered campsite 3 was a real treat. Nice fire last night, plenty of stars just peaceful. Highly recommended.
