Star Hosts in Lakes Entrance
Caravan parks near Lakes Entrance guide
Overview
Few towns live up to their name quite like Lakes Entrance. The scenic gateway to the Gippsland Lakes is a water-lover's paradise hemmed in by coastal lagoons, marshes, and Australia's largest inland network of waterways. If you ever get bored of boating, kayaking, and fishing on the lakes, head to the coast, where the golden shores of Ninety Mile Beach provide endless sand, surf, and seaside walks, as well as dolphin and whale-watching cruises. Or, explore the seven national parks within a short drive of the town—Mitchell River National Park, The Lakes National Park, and Gippsland Lakes Coastal Park all have caravan campsites, too. For powered sites with full amenities and a swimming pool, take your pick of holiday parks and caravan parks along the coast, or escape the crowds at a private Hipcamp and park your campervan by the riverside, amid rolling farmlands, or at a remote bush camp.
Safety at Hipcamp
Hipcamp acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders past, present and future and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
