Great spot to camp. We normally camp by the river but in future, will stay here instead. Lovely to wake up with mobs of roos around and its family friendly and more secure than free camping down the road. Highly recommended for families who want to spend a few days panning without the worry of rangers and undesirables by the river. Lots of beautiful farm animals as well.

We had lovely 4 nights at Surfside, the powered was level with concrete pad. Power, water and waste close. The amenities were modern and clean. Overall I was so impressed, our stay surpassing any caravan park we’ve stayed at since being on the road for 13 weeks. The beach is stunning.

Weekend Trip to Dharawal Camp

Our first time camping with the kids and we had a great time. The cabin with drinking water and toilet/shower was very convenient and very useful for storing things. Outdoor pizza oven was a big success. Was great to find a camp site so close to Sydney where we could also take our dogs. A short drive to the national park where we enjoyed hiking with the kids to the Minerva Pool.

3 nights at Dharawal Camp

Such a quiet place, the cabin was handy and had games, a ping pong table, electricity, a shower, toilet, fire pit, outdoor wood stove and hot water. Plenty of space for two tents, a swag and a 3x3m gazebo, 4 adults, 2 kids and a dog. The owner even come down to say hello and then left us alone for the rest of our trip. Was close enough to major shops but far enough away that you felt like you were in the middle of nowhere.

Tricia and Rainer want to share their beautiful farm and it shows in the way they try to make everyone’s stay a little bit special. Plenty of space to set up and private because you’re not right next to other groups. We had a large pile of fire wood waiting for us, which lasted the whole weekend. Friendly farm animals occasionally made a visit. A wonderfully peaceful and relaxing trip.

My family really enjoyed staying at Tom's Farm, and would definitely be back again. We had the whole place to ourselves, and there was plenty to do - fishing, collecting firewood, reading, riding bikes, exploring, spotting wildlife. The cabin was an unexpected luxury. Three days flew by. Our dog had the time of his life, too!

Weekend Trip to Dharawal Camp

We had the best long weekend here. Our group of 10 friends plus a Labrador puppy enjoyed the super well setup campsite with a well organised campfire area and extra smooth and flat camping area. The hut with power, running (hot) water, clean compost toilet, a gas bbq, pizza oven, ping pong table and cooking basics made life super comfortable and easy and David was lovely too. This is probably our favourite campsite ever.

Weekend Trip to Truffle Farm Camping

Beautifully maintained camping grounds and very nice setting. We camped, but also used the van as an ensuite/kitchen storage, which worked well. There's only a few camp sites which can be booked at the same time so there is a great amount of privacy and we could camp a long way away from other campers. Kids will love the farm animals, as ours did. Thanks Tricia for having us.

Weekend Trip to Truffle Farm Camping

Really easy instructions to follow upon arrival. Greeted by the cows as we drove up to to the host house. Hosts made sure there was plenty of fire wood and the amenities were clean and provided a map to drive down to the river. The camp area was clean and really nicely maintained and it was lovely to know that the animals had free roam which meant I woke to horses near by for a morning pat. (recommended bringing along some carrots) Next day we adventured down to the river which was AMAZING but unfortunately did get bogged and lucky for us the hosts kindly helped us out to get us on our way to pack up our site and head home. The campsites are spaced out with plenty of flat ground to set up your camp. For the kids, lots of room to kick a ball etc. Took our little one for a walk along the fence line for some koala, possum etc spotting which he loved. Both hubby and I highly recommend adding this camp spot to your next trip.

Had a great stay at the Truffle Farm in Oallen. Plenty of space, private, lots of friendly farm animals around, including a jolly truffle pig! Tricia was very friendly and provided a map for some good bush walks as well as plenty of wood for the terrific fire pit... which was much appreciated as we got a couple of very cold nights!
