Site 3 - Grassy flat
Great family camping experience
Only 1.5 hours outside Melbourne on a well maintained farm with cows, sheep, chickens and wandering kangaroos this is a great family and dog friendly place.
Joel, Caity and Jenny were genuine and warm hosts and provided some pellets for our toddler to feed the animals which she delighted in. She was also asking about the ‘hops’ (kangaroos) each day and loved watching them jump around. Our dog bonded with a couple of gentle cows who were so friendly they allowed him to walk up and him lick them repeatedly on the nose - very cute.
As some have mentioned the highway and train noise is audible but it really doesn’t spoil the experience and the outlook, animals and hosts more than make up for this minor issue. Would come again!

Site 5 - South Side Camp
A gorgeous site (and sights!)
A beautiful spot to camp! Joel was a fantastic host; friendly, accommodating and so helpful! We enjoyed lovely mountainous views, wildlife and privacy; a great spot to get out of city without travelling very far, would stay again!

Bush but close to town.
Beautiful open space. Joel greeted us on arrival then escorted us to our site. Bought some eggs from his wife too.
Yes, you can hear the freeway and trains but they quickly become just part of the ambient noise.
We'll definitely be coming here again.
