My husband and I stayed one night at Platypus Bush Camp. We had originally planned to camp elsewhere, but heavy rains came in and we opted to take a hut at this place so we wouldn't have to keep setting up and breaking down our tent in the rain.

We had a really nice time. We booked a hut. On the website it is still 75 dollar, but now it is 100 dollars. He told that is already for 1,5 year, but it is still not changed in his website. But for a real bushexperience. Platypus is the place to be. The bush showers are excellent too. more

If you’re lucky enough you might even be able to... more

Arriving early in Platypus Bush Camp, Gorge Road, Finch Hatton, Eungella NP,meant finding that the creek was high and only 4WD could cross the 5 fords to the camp. This was Wazza's place and he gave us a lift across. There were only 2 other people, australian tourists from up state. The wet season was just beginning, mid January 2007.... more
