What a great place to unwind after the trip over on the SOT. We stayed for 3 days, explored the area and also relaxed around the dam on the property. We saw the platypus playing each day and caught a rainbow trout. Steve was awesome and welcomed us. Put this one on your list.

This site was amazing, gravel driveway and pad to set the van up on. Beautiful views and amazing sunsets, kids loved playing soccer in the paddock! Melinda was an excellent host, very responsive and easy to deal with. The site was a nice fit for our large 9m Ofroad van, simply reverse up the driveway to make setup easier. We would love to come back and visit one day!
