Only 3 large campsites! Great for family groups and friends, lots of room. Kids under 5 stay free, pet friendly. North East Vic is a tourist mecca, with food and wine, lakes and rivers, cycling and markets, mountains and waterfalls. - We are only 2 and half hours from Melbourne and 20 mins off Hume Fwy, via Wangaratta. Please read the whole listing, lots to tell you about us. Campsites 1 is large and can accommodate two vans and 2 - 3 tents (or 14 -16 people). Campsites 2 and 3 are smaller and more suited to one van with 1 - 2 tents (or 4 - 6 people). Ample car parking. Campsites are 110m apart with a light screen of trees in between, no crowds here. Accessed via 3.5km of rough dirt track - not recommended for low vehicles or low towing vans. The track is rough BUT easily driven by all vehicles - just drive slowly. Dogs welcome, firewood is easily gathered by you, and often in piles by your campsite. Campsites are NOT near water. They are near a dry gully, with an **** unfenced dam.**** We have a beautiful swimming hole at the property entrance, in Boggy Creek. Guests are welcome to enjoy the shaded lawn area, BBQ and pot belly fire. The creek is 3kms from the campsites. Near The Hut is the gate to take a walk up to Sugar Loaf (500m return), where you can see amazing grass trees and place a rock on the cairn. Look for the wallabies that live up there. Stay with us to get away from crowded campsites, to enjoy a quieter holiday, while being close to a great tourist district. The King Valley showcases wineries, gourmet food, eateries, restaurants, pubs, brewery, even a gin distillery. We are surrounded by creeks, rivers and lakes, with many fishing, swimming and kayaking options - all within a 30 minute drive! Take a walk to the top of Sugar Loaf, and see unique grass trees on this rocky hill, while catching sight of Mount Buffalo. 8kms to Moyhu which has a pub, coffee shop, general store - all with great food options. You can get petrol, take away, gas etc.

Great for Larger Groups, Site 1.
Beautiful location perfect spot for our group for Easter. Plenty of room couldn’t even hear the campers at the next site over. We will be back again!

Site 2 next to Fig Tree Gully
We had the best time at Fig Tree Gully (Thornbridge) and are already thinking about our next trip! We only live 20 min from the campsite but it really filled out craving for a night under the stars in the bush. Excellent facilities which made it really easy (ie the toilet, sink and firepits/firewood). It is important to note the drive in as the hosts mention on your profile. As mentioned, it is 3.5k of track which was fine for our 4wd but we were glad to get there before sunset so we could take it slow and read the road well and of course set up in a good spot. Not too far from the Moyhu pub - we recommend the burgers. Sadly did not have time for the waterhole this trip! Alexa and family

We loved the camp area, private and quiet. The swim hole area is beautiful, soft green grass under the shade of big trees. Definitely would come back, Thank you!

Great for Larger Groups, Site 1.
Great spot for a large group to huddle around the campfire. We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend stay. Kids loved the swimming hole. Toilet facility was clean and very clean site. Great location to good wineries, King River Brewery and Lake William Hovell. Thanks Gayle and Stewart, great hosts visiting daily to check on facilities and water. We loved the fresh zucchini, which went perfectly with our roast dinner.

We were very well looked after by Gale and Stewart who made sure we had water for our fire every night and recommended a lovely swimming spot nearby. loved waking up to the cows mooing and the cleanest camp toilet. Thanks so much for having us! We loved the Nashy Pears

Camping with kids
Fantastic site, extremely quiet and with a great campfire. Easy to get to and a great adventure for kids to enjoy. Plenty to do around the area also with good mountain biking, hiking trails, vineyards and breweries.
