Massive, well-spaced sites surrounded by birdlife, nature, and with a friendly resident doggo. Located just one hour north of Sydney via the M1, we’re the ideal "test run" for your new camper, van, or tent—plus, we're close enough to shops if you forget the essentials!
The Facilities (The Honest Truth):
We offer a flush toilet and an outdoor warm camp shower at no extra cost to the site fees. They are functional, but they aren't "Instagrammable." If you need luxury amenities, we might not be the spot for you. But if you're here for the open space, the bush, and quality time with friends and family, you’ll love it here as much as we do.
Also we have unfenced dams and waterways, if you are camping with young children please consider carefully and let me know before booking.
Please read the site rules and camping conditions to ensure this site suits your needs.

Our property is on a hill with a dam midway up if you’re looking for a nice walk. Do a loop for spectacular views! Come and enjoy the beautiful outlook and natural wildlife. Rest in peace and privacy or get out to enjoy all the Snowy Mountains has to offer. Whether you come for snow sports, water sports, biking, hiking, yoga or reading – adventure and relaxation awaits.
Access to all sites is via a tree-lined driveway. To get to the western paddock and Sunset, Pine View and Hilltop sites, the turn off the drive to get through the fence means that small to medium setups are suitable. To get to the eastern paddock and Sunrise and Birch Grove sites, the turn off the driveway is a bit wider to allow for larger setups. Please check the details for size recommendations – the maximum sizes listed are for your total setup, including your car and anything towed.
The sites at the bottom of the property closest to the road have easy access and more protection in windy weather, but if you have a 4WD and are wanting to sit and enjoy the 360 degree rural views then head up the hill to our Hilltop site.
We can supply firewood, kindling and fire starters for a small fee, just message us in advance, or you can BYO. Strictly no foraging for wood from the property please. There’s also no power hookups, taps or toilets so it's fully self-sufficient camping. For the peace of other campers, we don't allow generators or pets, sorry.
We hope to welcome you to Harros Hill for your Snowy Mountains holiday!

We had the best 4 nights here and could have easily stayed longer. Cheryl and Rick are wonderful hosts and the camp ground was so tranquil and quiet.
We particularly loved how generously spaced out the sites were and the ability to have a fire is a nice touch on a pretty landscape.
It was fun to feed the animals and Cheryl even let us pick some fresh fruit and vegetables from the garden.
Highly recommend this place, run by such lovely people.
We would definitely recommend this place and will most certainly return.

First experience at Hipcamp we really liked it. Site four was great. It was in the sun. We went in July. The days were beautiful. The nights were freezing. The toilets were clean. It was great to get away for two days.

Was such a great campground! Beautiful serene river with free kayak rentals, a great communal bbq area, very clean toilets and a dishwashing station, lots of firewood available for purchase- absolutely everything you need. Cheryl was fantastic and always right there when you needed something or had a question. Definitely returning very soon!

Great farm stay, facilities were perfect for young family and feeding the animals was lots of fun. Cheryl & Rick were very hospitable. Would love to come back in the warmer months and make use of the river.

The site along the river is beautiful. It had everything we enjoy about hipcamp sites- privacy, peace and quiet.
Whilst this is a dog friendly site, it would be great if people cleaned up after their dogs 🐕. There was 🐕💩 everywhere.
