Hi Guys,
Have a look at The Springs
Never been there, I crabbed the link of another site awhile back and thought I'd check it out one day.
The are a couple around the Warwick, Stanthorpe area. Can't remember their names, Sorry.
Have fun

Gordon Country at Goomburra would be suitable with plenty of room.
It is not too busy on normal weekends, but Easter and long weekends can be very crowded. Close to Toowoomba as well. Check out their website.

Archers Crossing Camp Ground at Chinchilla, I am campaigning at the moment to get a toilet facitity installed there since the flood destroyed the so called one that was there ;)


Cheers Kev

what about Sundown Nat. Park and Girraween Nat. Parks?
not sure on actual distances from Toowoomba, but both nice spots for different reasons. go and climb "The Pyramid" at Girraween, you won't be disappointed with the view

Bunya Mtns.
There used to be a campsite that allowed fires, out towards Kingaroy side.
Take warm cloths, it gets bloody cold up there.
