3 nights at Ladybug Campgrounds

We stayed at campsite 2 for my partners birthday, despite our extremely late arrival the communication between me and the host was constant and clear, he had no issues with us arriving past our previously discussed time. Upon arrival there was a beautiful set up with marshmallows and a roaster, a sign for my partners birthday and some flowers. We got to set up our tent under beautiful festoon lights strung above, and were also able to prepurchase some firewood to have the pit nice and toasty. We also added the feature of the outdoor cinema, which was a game changer! The host had a lot of movies preloaded onto the usb, and even asked if my partner had a favourite for her birthday. The nearby walks are simply stunning and the waterfall is a short walk around the corner from the campsite. Absolutely stunning location - just be prepared to drive on some loose gravel if you’re in a smaller car! Will absolutely be visiting ladybug campgrounds again! 11/10

Weekend Trip to Farm on Franklin - Tasmania

We loved our stay at Farm on Franklin, such a beautiful place we were greeted by Sarah at the property and were allowed to pick our own grassy spot by the river. This place is perfect for families and you can bring your pet, fire pots provided and short walks by the river add to the serenity. this place is only 10 minutes from Port Sorell and close to the national park. Easy to follow directions 5 minutes on a gravel road to get to the site, some telstra coverage with semi level sites that only took some minor leveling of our 21 ft van. we would love stay again and would highly recommend to quiet couples travelling with their pets. dump point and woolworths in Port Sorell

Super love this campground! The site is amazing with stunning views and waterfalls just few steps away. Peter and Kim were incredibly welcoming and showed us around. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this lovely spot to anyone looking for a tranquil getaway.

Weekend Trip to Ladybug Campgrounds

Ladybug camp ground is a hidden gem ✨ private and flat sites, sheltered by wattle and gum tree, amazing waterfalls surrounded by rainforest terrain. Very clean compost toilet. The projector and movies were a bonus for the kids! Definitely a spot we'd camp at again.

My wife and I love staying at Inglis River Retreat. Aaron and Amanda are the best hosts and have gone above and beyond on their park. The campgrounds are gorgeous, river running around the whole site and nice spacious areas, Aaron and Amanda have gone above the natural beauty and have added a playground, fire pits, floating pontoons, rope swing and much more. With their regular visits to say hi and check alls good. We have been frequently and have multiple more trips already booked.

Here’s a polished version of your Hipcamp public review — it keeps your friendly tone but reads smoothly and naturally: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Second time staying here — such a quiet, peaceful spot with friendly hosts. Fire pots are supplied, and the campsites are spacious and well-kept The pontoon on the river is a great touch — perfect for swimming and relaxing in the warmer weather. Highly recommend!
