This laid-back haven offers open farmland views, starlit skies, and the friendly vibe of a small coastal community. Watch the cows graze, stretch your eyes across wide paddocks, and breathe in the quiet.

Across the road, stroll along the shoreline, launch a kayak, explore the reef, roll out your yoga mat, or cast in a fishing line. Further down the coast, discover surf breaks and secret fishing coves. Just a 10-minute drive away, the neighbouring township of Port MacDonnell invites you to grab a coffee, enjoy local fish & chips, or unwind by the jetty and playground.

Serenity now, just across the road; great for yoga, fishing,  connecting to nature, a kayak or a paddle.

This is the view of the farm lands. The camp site is up higher than the water course.

This is your little piece of grass - level, nicely mowed, ready for your RV, a glass of wine & cheese platter and even a little game of croquet😍
