Wilderluxe Lake Keepit: Luxury Glamping Under the Big Sky

Wild luxury under endless skies – discover Wilderluxe Lake Keepit, where adventure meets elegance.

For those seeking an escape that blends wild beauty with a touch of indulgence, a new destination has arrived. Opened in April 2025, Wilderluxe Lake Keepit offers a luxurious glamping experience in the heart of Big Sky Country, set between Tamworth and Gunnedah. Nestled above the sparkling waters of Lake Keepit and framed by the Great Dividing Range, this exclusive retreat invites guests to reconnect with nature in comfort and style.

Wilderluxe is a new initiative from Reflections Holidays, Australia’s largest outdoor hospitality group and the only one in the country that is a certified social enterprise. Created in response to a growing appetite for outdoor adventures with a luxurious edge, Wilderluxe Lake Keepit is the first in a series of planned sites, with new locations in Lennox Head, Eden, Brunswick Heads and Lake Glenbawn to follow.

An Intimate Nature Escape

With just eight beautifully appointed Star Tents, Wilderluxe Lake Keepit has been thoughtfully designed to preserve the surrounding landscape. Each tent is perched high above the lake, offering sweeping views of the water and countryside. Combining the adventure of camping with the elegance of a boutique hotel, the experience is intimate, peaceful and authentically Australian.

Inside, guests will find plush interiors, a king-sized bed, kitchenette and private ensuite. Designed for year-round comfort, each tent is fully insulated and features a skylight positioned over the bed—perfect for stargazing as the evening unfolds. Spacious outdoor decks, complete with a freestanding bath overlooking the lake, offer the ultimate indulgence in natural luxury.

Stylishly furnished with pieces from Banana Home, RJ Living and Kave Home, with soft furnishings by Eadie Lifestyle and natural Australian-made amenities by Hunter Lab, each Star Tent offers a warm, welcoming feel. Artwork by local Kamilaroi artist Letitia Barty, curated by Emro Designs, adds a special connection to Country.

Wilderluxe Lake Keepit invites you to slow down, breathe deeply and experience the magic of nature in comfort and style.

Big Sky Dreaming

One of the highlights of the Wilderluxe experience is the Big Sky Dreaming dinner. Held in the Gilay Lounge, guests are invited to share complimentary drinks and a grazing table before enjoying an exclusive film narrated by Kamilaroi storyteller Uncle Len Waters. Beneath the expansive night sky, the Dreaming stories come to life in a truly memorable experience.

Choose Your Own Adventure

Whether it is water sports, hiking, cycling or something more indulgent like cheesemaking or a scenic glider flight, Wilderluxe offers guests the freedom to craft their own escape. For those who simply wish to relax, the tranquil setting and abundant wildlife offer the perfect backdrop to slow down and unwind.

Reconnect with Nature

Lake Keepit, at nearly two-thirds the size of Sydney Harbour, provides an extraordinary setting to disconnect from everyday life. Native birds, kangaroos and wallabies are regular visitors, and the peaceful surroundings encourage a deeper connection with nature.

Nick Baker, CEO of Reflections Holidays, shared: “Wilderluxe represents a transformative step for Reflections Holidays as we respond to the evolving preferences of today’s travellers. Wilderluxe Lake Keepit blends the untamed beauty of the bush with the comfort of sophisticated accommodation. And with Sydney just an hour’s flight away, a weekend escape to the countryside has never been easier.”

Planning Your Stay

Rates at Wilderluxe Lake Keepit start from $550 per night midweek and $700 per night on weekends, including luxury accommodation, a gourmet breakfast each morning, complimentary access to kayaks, SUPs and bikes, and the Big Sky Dreaming experience.
