Weekend Trip to Pear Tree Hollow

We had such a wonderful stay at the T2 tent and shelter. From the moment we arrived, Peter and Michelle made everything so easy with their clear directions and warm hospitality. The walk into the tent was magical, with the forest path leading to a peaceful and beautifully set-up space. The tent was spotless, comfortable, and full of thoughtful touches that made our stay relaxing and enjoyable. We especially appreciated the attention to detail and how welcoming the environment felt — it’s clear a lot of care has gone into creating this experience. Peter was responsive, kind, and made sure we had everything we needed. We couldn’t have asked for a better host or a better location to unwind and connect with nature. Highly recommend this stay and would love to come back again! Marc

Love love love! Would highly recommend staying here. Such a good, warm environment having everyone camping around with their fires going and chatting away. It felt very safe and like a little community Camp is right next to Ikara and many other breathtaking sights. This stay was the highlight of our trip and probably the best location in Australia I’ve seen so far. Such beautiful country
