72km from Cudlee Creek · 1 site · Tent, RV

This is a campsite for those who want the best of both worlds, the serenity of the Australian Bush, but close to all the modern conveniences and holiday activities. Surrounded by the Hindmarsh Valley National Park and a working sheep farm, you’ll be sharing this campsite with the local kangaroos, and if you’re lucky, an echidna or two. There’s a creek running through, and vibrant bird life. Nearby is a beautiful bush-walk through the Mount Billy Conservation Park. Situated half way between Myponga and Victor Harbor, only 15 minutes to either, there are many activities available. Kayaking on the Myponga reservoir, or surfing, swimming and sun bathing at either Horseshoe Bay or Waitpinga. Urimbirra wildlife park is less than 10 minutes away, and around the corner is the Softfoot Alpaca Farm, with the on-site Swagman Restaurant. Also in Hindmarsh Valley is the lovely restaurant Lost Phoenix Farm. Over your stay, you will likely encounter our two dogs, Lola and Sherlock, who very much enjoy meeting our guests. Lola is particularly fond of children and loves to play fetch with them, whilst Sherlock will try charm you out of your sausages. Despite what he says, he is well fed at home. They are both good at giving high fives. If you would prefer not to see the dogs, please just let us know and we will keep them under strict supervision. An RV dump point is located on Adelaide Road, Victor Harbor, within the tourist information bay, 200m south of Waterport Road, approximately 10 minutes from the site.

The camp site was peaceful. There is only 3 sites but I was the only person there. Kylie uses the site for live music gigs once or twice a year and people can hire the place for weddings. It's picturesque and the dogs, Juno and Audrey are gorgeous. I got my doggy fix . Kylie came down for a chat while I was at the camp kitchen. She's a lovely host. I would recommend the site to anyone who likes a quiet and scenic camp. Oh, the toilets were fancy and fabulous.

We were a group of 8 friends and this was our third time staying at this campsite. Another brilliant experience! The place is well-kept, relaxing, and always enjoyable. Luke and his partner are fantastic hosts — friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Highly recommended.

Playing fetch can be exhausting, even for a resident farm dog.

Weekend Trip to Rocky Dale Farm

Lovely grassy paddock site and area to explore. The only downside was that the site was very close to the road which was busier than we imagined it would be. It was great to have the space to ourselves and enjoy a campfire but limited flat ground for tenting, the caravan was great though.

Had a great fire and lovely starry night. . Check SA fire regulations and Jenna’s information to check there are no fire bans on.

Lovely space to get away from everything. Jenna and her two children came to say hello and gave us some carrots to feed their horses. Nice area in Milang Bay and only a short walk to a few shops, cafe, takeout and pub. Thanks Jenna :-)

Beautiful place to stay - we had amazing views out over rolling hills with forest behind us. We were lucky to have the place to ourselves, but the sites are spaced well apart so it wouldn’t have mattered if there were others. Kylie was lovely and we even got to spend some time with the doggos!
