Bush Camping with Fires at Murphys Creek Escape

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.

Unique Eco Billabong

A naturally designed water feature created to support the local environment and enhance the campground’s connection to nature.

The billabong operates without chemicals, relying instead on natural filtration through plants, rocks and biological processes to keep the water healthy and balanced year-round.

This approach encourages native birds, insects and small aquatic organisms to thrive, creating a living ecosystem within the grounds. Over time, the Eco Billabong will continue to mature as a natural habitat, contributing to biodiversity and offering guests a peaceful, authentic bush setting that reflects the beauty of South East Queensland.
