Stunning campsite at Jarabin on the bank of the Murrumbidgee River! Peaceful, well-maintained pet-friendly sites (3) with fire pits (when permitted). We stayed 2 nights with our dog who loved exploring and paddling in the river. Nothing better than sitting quietly (with no phone reception!) watching the river change character throughout the day. Dozens of different birds and corellas use the river as a highway in the late afternoon. Bliss! As night falls, star-gazing took over - brilliant sky. And we even spotted a wombat! We ordered meat from Ben and the steak was the best we've had in long time. Clear instructions to access the property. Sad to leave but we'll be back!

What can I say. Me, three kids and a dog stayed here for a a week or so, in the Two Trees Campsite.
Unbelievably beautiful. My favourite time of day was going for an off lead walk down to the dam with my furry girl and enjoying the space and peace.
The campsite was relatively flat and there was heaps of space for my boys to run around and play.
Sarah and her family were star hosts, letting the kids fees the sheep, taking us to the river and the creek, picking blackberries.
We used it as a base to travel into Canberra, to super easy to get in and out.
Would 100% recommend.

This place is amazing, nobody else around, easy access along a dirt road. Plenty of wild life to be seen. Stay in your camp or do a day trip to a number of great local spots. Perfect for larger groups if needed. The hosts were amazing, we had some bad weather and got moved to a more all weather location. Didn't go for a swim in the dam but if the weather had of been warmer definitely would have.

Beautiful views of the countryside! We wish we arrived earlier to appreciate the beauty. Craig & Liz were very communicative leading up to the booking which was appreciated. They were welcoming & gave us our privacy, even preparing us for a windy night ahead and checking in to make sure we were okay when it got windier outside. We loved staying here, especially for the cutest calves and stunning views.
