A great place to camp. Quiet, isolated and super beautiful surroundings. There is 2x other sites nearby but they're far enough apart and separated by trees that your site feels private. The swimming hole near the house is a bonus on hot days and the flushing toilet close to the camp sites is amazing. Stewart and Gayle pop by everyday to say hi and make sure the fire water containers are full. Definitely going to stay here again and for longer next time.

Magnificent property with magnificent views!!! Total isolation and privacy able to have a fire just needed to have own firewood - being able to have access to the wood on the property would have been a bonus. Lisa was very responsive but not at all invasive. Literally felt like we were remote and not on private land. Highly recommend!

Gob-smackingly beautiful and peaceful property. We stayed on Stonor's 'upper level', which has oodles of flat, open space. Grass was short and everything well maintained. Only a short 100-metre walk to the closest toilet. Big wood pile for all to enjoy next to the Heyfield site. Had a good chat to the gorgeous and inquisitive Highland cows in the adjacent paddock. What's not to love? (Stonor also has a decent-sized lower level with a firepit, but not suitable for my large front-wheel-drive motorhome.) HIGHLY recommend.

Had a great time staying at Stewart & Gayle's property over the weekend. We had the place to ourselves which was great. Directions are clear making for an easy arrival. Rough dirt track to get in but nothing to serious and makes for part of the adventure winding over the scenic hills. Would highly recommend staying here if you are in the area.

Weekend Trip to Ellimatta

After being swamped out at our original planned spot I went on a last minute search for an easy camp spot for myself and two young kids. Although it was a bit further from Melbourne than I had wanted (3.5 hours with a stop), I’m so glad we chose this spot. It was easy to find, I used Apple Maps and then on arrival a site map on the gate as well as cute signs on each camp spot. I counted 6 spots in total. We booked Sunbury because another review said it was more private from the other spots (which was true) but when we got there we had the whole place to ourselves anyway (last weekend of the Sept school holidays) so we asked if we could switch to Gembrook because it was slightly closer to the toilets for the kids. We had the perfect weather for the weekend. Clear warm days and clear sky night. The position for camping is great with full sun all morning and shade in the afternoon. There was no water in the creek unfortunately but the kids enjoyed exploring it anyway. So many different native birds visited and the cows were adorable. There is an unsealed road opposite the campsite which didn’t bother us but might for others. Wood being provided was a massive bonus for us as we only have a small car which barely fit what we brought to camp with. If coming with kids definitely bring a ball as there is large grassy space to kick around on. There was also plenty to do in the area with Glenrowan nearby we learnt a lot about Ned Kelly and also a market. 10/10 would go again!

A good site for a beginner. Just enough out of the way, well maintained, with the valley protecting you from wind ect. The supplied wood made things easy and a *fancy* toilet setup meant even our non-camp friends had a good time.
