Badgers Flats is a seven acres property surrounded by big trees and edged by a beautiful mountain river. There are four campsites available and two cabins. Its off grid. Some solar is provided and some internet access. I'm just starting out so it may be bumpy. Its very close to some spectacular walks. Some incredible old growth forest home to some of the worlds largest trees. There are also alpine lakes for more adventurous campers.

Grants directions were clear and helpful. The site only takes 3 vans at a time, Grant allows plenty of space between campers. It’s not a huge site but very pleasant view through the orchard.

We loved our stay at Misty Mountains. We had a powered site which was great! We had amazing views and our 2 kids (4&7) had the best time at the trampoline, climbing the tree and the swing. It’s great not having to worry about the kids as it’s very peaceful and safe. The kids were sad we had to leave!
Grant is very friendly and was always happy to chat. We purchased the fresh produce basket and the peaches were amazing. They were small but very sweet and juicy!
Only 15-20 mins to Bruny Island ferry and a few nice cideries close by. It’s very close to Cygnet which has everything you need. There’s also a nice playground with a skate park for kids.
Would definitely stay again!

We had a very relaxing long weekend at Grant’s place. The location is great - peaceful, close to everything and beautiful views. There’s plenty of space for people to spread out. Grant is the perfect host - relaxed, friendly, kind and super helpful. As an added bonus we purchased the produce pack with plenty of delicious foods from Grant’s garden. Would highly recommend and definitely on the list to return one day. Thanks Grant!

Grant was a fantastic host, from the moment we arrived until we left he was accommodating and nothing was too much. The site was exactly as described and was what we needed for our 5 nights away for a quick get away with the kids. We would absolutely recommend this site and would look to return again for another stay. Thanks again to Grant and the family for making us welcome and providing a great spot for us to stay. Cheers Tab, Lee and the kids

We loved the setting of a peaceful valley close to Cygnet. Grant is a very kind and helpful host. The basket of goodies we purchased from Grant was great, loved the bread, home made jam and fruits. The site was nice and level with lovely grass. Having power was a welcome addition.

We have loved our stay at The Lazy Lab.
This is the perfect camp to base yourself as you explore the area and surrounds.
Located only 30mins from the CBD of Hobart, very easy to get to. New Norfolk is only 10 mins away, which has all your shopping needs.
Ben and Loren have been amazing hosts, super friendly and responds to any of our needs. This is a great camp if you have kids, there is loads of room for them to play, go and see the animals, ride their bike and they even have a little swing set. The yard is fully enclosed.
The site is nice and level with access to fill with water when we need. Beautiful and quiet and very safe and secure. We even left our van here for 2 days while we raced over the mountains to Strahan for the weekend.
While staying here, we visited Bruny Island, Hastings Springs and Caves & Hobart.
Ben and Loren were very accommodating when we needed to extend our stay last minute.
Thanks so much for having us Lazy Lab :)

We chose to stay here to visit family in Cygnet. So glad we did as it was lovely, so peaceful and Grant and his family fantastic friendly hosts. We accepted their offer of a basket of home grown vegetables and fruit and it was delicious. A very nice personal touch we thought. We will be travelling to Bruny Island in the coming weeks and will probably stay here again for another couple of nights as they are situated not far from the ferry. We would highly recommend this camp site. Book and stay you won’t be disappointed.
