Lake Eacham Caravan Park is a quiet eco-style park on ten acres, just 1 klm walk or drive to the crystal clear waters of the crater lake. Perfect for safe swimming in 65 metres deep water (no crocs or stingers!), or walking the 3klm circuit around the crater rim through lush tropical rainforest.

We are a small park with 21 powered sites for tents and campervans, 7 drive-through sites on the top level, two morre grassy levels below.

Five bright and clean Cabins, fully self-contained with en-suites, good beds, kitchenettes, and balconies are reserved for travellers (no permanent residents).

Down the bottom of the garden you'll find a lovely duck pond (and ducks), a couple of zany Ostriches for comic relief and usually one or two clutches of baby chickens. Our rooster is carried unceremoniously off to the other end of the property every evening so you can sleep past dawn.

Our rustic Camp Kitchen has a big open fire for cold winter nights, a large gas barbecue and stove top, microwave, kettle & toaster, refrigerator and sink.

There is a laundry with washing machine and dryer (coin operated) at the rear of the blue amenities building.

Our large Convenience Store stocks groceries, eggs, dairy products etc, soft drinks, ice-creams, etc. Our Garden Cafe serves cooked breakfasts (all day),
Tempting Turkish Toasties, Home-made Banana cakes, Cheese-cakes and Hot Scones. Eat indoors or outside in the garden. Broadband Internet. Petrol, Diesel, Elgas and Ice.
Local Adventures
Walk to Lake Eacham (one klm) then walk the rim of the extinct crater lake - 3klm circuit through tropical rainforest. Hear the amazing songs of the rare Tooth-Billed Bower Bird. Walk through the giant fig tree at the rear of the lake. Take an unforgettable swim!
Free Gas barbecues for lake picnics, Turtle viewing.

Explore the local secret - Vision Falls and view the giant King Ferns.

Visit the wonderful cafe on the shores of Lake Barrine (5 mins), and their giant Twin Kauri Trees on the lake walk.

This is the land of giant trees - visit Cathedral Tree and Curtain Fig Tree - take a torch for night spotting of native animals in the rainforest.
