Gootchie Creek Escape
Official Partner**Trade screen time for open skies and the sound of cattle moving across open paddocks — Gootchie Creek Escape is a sprawling 600-acre farm retreat sitting just off the Bruce Highway near Gootchie.** The property blends working cattle country with a genuine back-to-nature camping experience. Pick your own spot across wide grassy flats shaded by mature gum trees — whether you're arriving with a tent, a swag, or a caravan. At the heart of the property sits a permanent spring-fed billabong, home to resident platypus and turtles, offering a tranquil focal point that makes this place feel far removed from the highway it's tucked behind. Around 100 head of cattle share the property with an abundance of native wildlife, including kangaroos, kookaburras, and cockatoos. The campground keeps things simple without skimping on comfort: you'll find clean flushing toilets, hot showers, and a baby bath on site. All sites are unpowered; campers can run generators in short morning and afternoon windows to top up batteries, keeping things peaceful for everyone. Pets are welcome provided they stay leashed throughout your stay. The property also caters to larger gatherings — from weddings and milestone celebrations through to the beloved annual Gootch Stampede Rodeo, which draws visitors from across Queensland. Come for a quiet weeknight escape or plan around a long weekend event; either way, you'll leave having properly reconnected with the outdoors.
