The Best Glamping Spots In South East Queensland

There are a few down sides to camping – sandy tents, sharing toilets and showers, the time and energy that goes into the set up and pack down for just a couple of nights. Enter Glamorous camping! We’ve rounded up the best spots to head in South East Queensland so you don’t have to travel too far to get a perfecto ‘camping’ experience.

Staying in the luxurious safari tents will give you the total ‘back to nature’ experience without missing any of the luxuries of daily life.

3. NRMA Lake Somerset Holiday Park, Hazeldean

Hotel

Lake Somerset Holiday Park includes several accomodation options for both roughing it and glamping. It’s just over one-and-a-half hours drive from Brisbane set on a serene 45 hectares. The glamping sites are situated right by the calm waters of the lake, so you wake up to a view like no other. The lake is perfect for water sport lovers; waterskiing, wake boarding and bass fishing are all common pastimes here. Unfortunately, the bathrooms and kitchen is a shared set-up (although you do have your own fridge), but the views and serenity make up for it.
