New Yearβs Camping at Murphys Creek Escape
Count down beneath the stars, wake to the first sunrise and begin the year with family, friends and fresh country air.
A New Year stay for families, groups and solo travellers
Choose powered or Canyon Top sites for a practical family base, group areas when you want to camp together, or a quieter option for a solo reset.
The Gypsy Wagon and tent hire can help travellers who do not have a complete camping setup, while backpackers can use the campground as an authentic South East Queensland bush stop.
Each option has different inclusions and site requirements, so compare the current rates before booking.

Plan the countdown around the campground
A bush campground has different rhythms from a city event. Review current quiet hours, fire rules, alcohol requirements and pet conditions before the stay.
Keep children supervised, secure decorations and rubbish, and make sure the whole group knows the campsite boundaries.
Plan the rest of your stay
Compare campsites, facilities, activities and local experiences before you arrive.
Swap the crowded venue for stars, campfires and a country sunrise
Choose the right accommodation, bring your favourite people and welcome the new year at a pace that feels better.
