Set up camp next to undulating Mirrool Creek frontage and enjoy recreational activities including swimming, fishing and paddling. Don't forget to bring your canoe or kayak. The camp area is scattered with redgums and you have great views of the wonderful scenery. Depending on where you camp as far as access to the toilets goes, you could be anywhere from 20 metres to 500 metres from the facilities. Water is also in close proximity as well depending on where u setup. You are welcome to enjoy a campfire, within local regulations. There is plenty of wildlife around, including kangaroos. and birdlife. Close to Lake Abortree, a 70 acre inland lake. Only 6kms from village of Ariah Park- whichlikes to describe itself as a town of 'bowsers, wowsers and peppercorn trees'. There is something delightfully timeless about the town: the wide main street with the tree-lined median strip; the old shops with their verandas; the quietness and peacefulness. The town is listed by the National Trust as a Conservation Area.Set up camp next to undulating Mirrool Creek frontage and enjoy recreational activities including swimming, fishing and paddling.

Nice spot
Had a great time camping over Easter weekend on Geoffrey's property with friends. Plenty of space for all 8 of us to set up tents under shade with picnic tables and toilet right next to us. Pros: Quiet and spacious spot with green grass next to the lake. Got some nice sunrises/sunsets. Cons: The lake itself at the moment is very shallow (waist deep) and muddy which means that it's not great for swimming currently. We went in once but I wouldn't advise

Bird watcher's paradise
This was such a beautiful spot! The lake is only 30% full and more like a wetland right now but it was still stunning, with an incredible variety of birdlife to enjoy. And Geoff was a very helpful, friendly host. Unfortunately, the large group of campers next to us were incredibly inconsiderate, parting loudly every night until after midnight. They weren't even close by (maybe 25m) but their selfishness had a negative impact on our experience. Not the camp's fault of course. I would like to return, hopefully not at the same time as these dimwits.

We stayed for 6 nights and loved the place. Geoff was a great host and very helpful. He even mowed an area out for us right near the waters edge. Would definitely recommend if you are after a relaxing time on the water in a quiet little town.
