Niagra falls (which is actually like a 20cm drop in reality) is just before the kayaks in the distance and the site is to the right in the clearing in front of the trees. Access would be coming down the track to the left of the ute, swinging right and then reversing in.

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
