Clean basic campsites with option of open area or wooded site ( pine trees great, stay away from gum trees esp on windy days, saw a few large branches drop). Friendly, laid back, hands off staff.
Honeyeaters, magpies, parrots, grey butcherbirds and owls around camp.
Rustic but fun mini golf, bikes, included in booking fee. Good value for money. Close to beach and shops (short drive). Accessible by public transport ( Frankston Bus).

Hugh was lovely and the site was very close to the beach, had lots of greenery and a built in fire pit. If you want super private camping the other campers are visible and you can hear anything too loud. The dogs had a great time running around chasing the ball with the size of the space and there were lots of trees for shade.
It’s a great site if you are wanting to spend time at ocean grove, barwon heads or port arlington etc.
