If you truly want to "get away from it all," you've found the place!
Remember, this is just the property description. PLEASE READ THE SITE DESCRIPTION FOR THE SITE YOU ARE BOOKING BEFORE MAKING ANY REQUESTS. ALL VEHICLES ON EVERY BOOKING MUST BE CAPABLE OF REACHING THE SITE.
Due to the nature of our access tracks, all campers are met via a meet-and-greet at every opportunity. Because of this, we have a two-night minimum stay requirement for The Gun Range and The Summit. Please DO NOT ASK if we will make an exception for your group to stay only one night.
Friendly miniature Galloway cattle freely roam the property here. You may see us driving around in our Jeep, giving them lots of treats and cuddles. Other than that, our hope is that you don't see anyone but the local wildlife.

Love love love this place! My site by the dam was perfect for myself and my dog. He could have a great time swimming and playing and I had the serenity and tranquility I needed for my night away. The toilet is a great facility and it was so nice and quiet. We also enjoyed a little walk through the bush on the property and saw a few other sites in the bush, all beautiful and private if you have 4WD.
My dog loved having a play with Doris’ dog, Rex and Doris was a delight to meet. I can’t wait to head back there again one day. Thank you :)

Absolutely loved my stay even though just overnight but was greeted upon arrival and very friendly and helpful! Stunning setting with pristine surrounds and good facilities. Sunrise on the Lake with the supplied canoes was a highlight. Definitely will be back and my Doggo loved it also! 😍.
A little surprise of a possum in a box was fantastic in the showers! Super cute 🥰

Loved our stay at the property, the creek is absolutely beautiful, has tropical feel to it. So peaceful at night, with all the sounds of nature.
Only 10 mins from town if you need to pop out for something.
Will definitely be returning, to be honest we didn't want to leave and go back to reality. Such a magical spot.
Keep in mind if you book the property you can invite family and friends to stay at no extra cost, which is fantastic.

We had an awesome stay at Riverdell. The property is beautiful with rolling green hills, amazing views and plenty of space to camp. It felt really peaceful and private, and waking up surrounded by nature and cattle grazing nearby was a great experience.
We stayed in a rooftop tent on our Land Cruiser and the access was easy with plenty of good spots to set up. Our dog loved the open space as well.
Overall it was a really relaxing stay and a great place to get away from the city for a night or two. We’d definitely come back again.

We loved our stay at Rangetop Camp. The views are spectacular and the campsites are very well spaced so you feel secluded. Viola is an excellent host and the lake was a lovely bonus - will definitely be back.
