Such a wonderful place. The bushland, ammenities and friendly welcome made our stay really enjoyable. We had our dog, who loved it and it was a half hour drive to a beautiful dog friendly beach at Hawks Nest.
We will be back.

The first thing you'll notice is the beautifully maintained property with attention to detail that goes above and beyond. The camp kitchen and outdoor shower are exceptional. Everything is clean and tidy and Rod and Kellie are generous and kind people who care about you enjoying your stay and just to note, they also have a cute van and a cabin for the "Non-campers" in your group. 10/10 we will be back. Thanks for a great stay, we left relaxed and rejuvenated.

Exceptionally well maintained. Camp kitchen is very well equipped. The Rustic charm is astonishing and very relaxing. Kellie & Rod are extremely helpful and very friendly. Our Kindred Acres is a credit to them and reflects all the love, vision and hard work they have put into it. Highly recommend OKA, do yourself a favour and add OKA to your travel list.

Beautiful cared for property hosted by the delightful Kellie and Rod and their onsite caretakers. Plenty of space. Our site overlooked a lake with an abundance of water Lillie’s. The camp kitchen is extraordinary, decorated with old-time farming memorabilia. The outside shower (private) and toilets were cleaned daily and spotlessly clean.

I loved this little Hipcamp and if I find myself down this way again I will definitely be staying here. It has such a relaxed vibe about it and Kellie is very welcoming and helpful. Great facilities and showering under the stars was pretty magical as well. I love waking up to fresh air and birds singing!

I had a very good night staying here. The view from the campsites is beautiful. The trucks mostly stop coming and going to the nearby truckstop after sundown so it didnt disturb me. The dogs are very friendly.

Stayed 1 night and enjoyed it. It is close to a main road but didn’t bother me and for $18 per person with a flushing loo and shower absolutely no complaints.
Host was responsive and helpful.
