You are welcome to walk your dog on lead throughout the designated public areas on the property and along the roadside and surrounding trails. If you wish to visit local areas where dogs can’t be taken, you can book your furry friend in to be dog-sat here on the property while you go out exploring.
* As this is a farm, and is surrounded by other farms, there may be farm noises like dogs barking, sheep baa-ing , cows moo-ing, horses neighing, Guinea fowl squawking, and/or Belle the Needy Noisy Nubian Dairy Goat calling for her feed (or rug if it’s cold!) We endeavour to provide a peaceful environment, and this is generally a lovely quiet location which more than fulfils our own personal requirements for an undisturbed lifestyle, and will no doubt do so for the vast majority of campers.
But we can’t guarantee it will always be completely silent during the day or at night- especially if the lambs or calves or foals are being weaned from their mothers! Ear plugs are available for light sleepers if required. And if you are an extremely noise sensitive person or someone who wants a private camping experience with no noise or neighbouring houses visible, this may not be the right spot for you (if this is you, we would recommend looking for a more remote stay on a large acreage which will provide you with a more private experience)
* And while on the topic- if partying late into the night with loud music, a thumping base on your sound system and extremely raucous singing and laughter is your thing, then this is not the right camping spot for you. While we are all for socialising and having fun, if you want to party loudly into the wee hours we would suggest finding a camping spot far away from neighbouring properties where the sound doesn’t carry for miles across the land. Please be mindful of us, our neighbours and others nearby who may be trying to relax or sleep, and keep noise to a respectful level after the sun has set. TIA for your understanding
* We want your stay to be relaxing and enjoyable, so please contact us if you need anything or have any issues and we will be happy to help in whatever way we can :)

You can choose to camp privately amongst the native trees or next to the big pond- sit on the jetty and take in the birds, trees and wild life, have a swim to cool down on hot days, toast marshmallows around a campfire, walk along the creek that runs through the property, or just sit by the little waterfall with your feet in the water listening to the water gurgling through the granite stones and allow the stress of life to drift away.
Or if you prefer, you can participate in a true farm stay experience! Stay near the original farmhouse, choose a powered site, book a Meet, Greet & Feed tour and join us on a feed run to feed the horses, cows, sheep, goats, chickens and guinea fowl, enjoy watching the baby animals frolicking (depending on when you stay), get up close and personal to pat and feed some of the animals, collect the eggs, see the dairy goats being milked; and if you wish you can partake in an evening bbq meal with us on the deck and enjoy an evening filled with great food, hospitality and laughter.
Should you wish to make it an even deeper experience, you could book in for a reiki session with a qualified and accredited Reiki Master (with or without the animals assisting!) or an Equine Assisted Transformation session... this is the perfect location for those who are energy sensitive and who wish to deepen their connection with the land, nature and themselves, or who feel the need for some healing or clearing work.

You can even bring your own 4 legged friends- well behaved dogs are welcome provided they are kept restrained at all times.
Less than 3 hours drive from Melbourne, the property is conveniently located within minutes of local shops and Chiltern- Mount Pilot National Park, 10 minutes from the popular town of Rutherglen, 20 minutes from the Murray River, Beechworth and Corowa, 25 minutes from Wangaratta and Albury-Wodonga, 40 minutes from Mount Buffalo… this is a popular location to strike out into the high country from and is very popular with cyclists, hikers and nature enthusiasts alike.
Hiking, cycling, nature watching, birdwatching, visiting local sites to see Aboriginal Art, panning for gold at local rivers, berry picking at nearby farms, trail riding… there is so much to do and explore in the local area!
Or just come to relax, recharge your batteries and spend some time quality time reconnecting with yourself and/or loved ones
Please note:
* At this stage, you will need to be fully self contained with your own cooking facilities, toilet, shower and potable water for most of the sites.
*There will be some areas that you cannot go on the property due to animals being housed there, and electric fencing is used throughout the property. So please read and follow the signs, stick to the areas designated for public use, always use the gates (and if you open a gate, please close it behind you) and be mindful of the fences. If in doubt, DON’T touch the fence! Or if you do, make sure someone is videoing it and please post it on the Facebook page!!
NB- If you would like to explore, then please book a farm tour with us to see the whole property and experience meeting the animals up close and personal.
* Campfires in the designated fire pits are welcome, but ARE NOT permitted on days of high fire risk or Total Fire Ban days. You may collect twigs and branches from the ground, but please don’t break or cut branches off trees. Bags of pre-cut wood are available to purchase as an extra or upon request. Please ensure that all fires are completely out before leaving them unattended.
* While we welcome your furry family members, we do require them to be well behaved and on a lead at all times. We have a zero tolerance policy for dogs chasing farm animals or being excessively disruptive, and any such behaviour will result in you forfeiting your payment and being asked to leave immediately. You are welcome to walk your dog on lead throughout the designated public areas on the property and along the roadside and surrounding trails. If you wish to visit local areas where dogs can’t be taken, you can book your furry friend in to be dog-sat here on the property while you go out exploring.
* As this is a farm, and is surrounded by other farms, there may be farm noises like dogs barking, sheep baa-ing , cows moo-ing, horses neighing, Guinea fowl squawking, and/or Belle the Needy Noisy Nubian Dairy Goat calling for her feed (or rug if it’s cold!) We endeavour to provide a peaceful environment, and this is generally a lovely quiet location which more than fulfils our own personal requirements for an undisturbed lifestyle, and will no doubt do so for the vast majority of campers.
But we can’t guarantee it will always be completely silent during the day or at night- especially if the lambs or calves or foals are being weaned from their mothers! Ear plugs are available for light sleepers if required. And if you are an extremely noise sensitive person or someone who wants a private camping experience with no noise or neighbouring houses visible, this may not be the right spot for you (if this is you, we would recommend looking for a more remote stay on a large acreage which will provide you with a more private experience)
* And while on the topic- if partying late into the night with loud music, a thumping base on your sound system and extremely raucous singing and laughter is your thing, then this is not the right camping spot for you. While we are all for socialising and having fun, if you want to party loudly into the wee hours we would suggest finding a camping spot far away from neighbouring properties where the sound doesn’t carry for miles across the land. Please be mindful of us, our neighbours and others nearby who may be trying to relax or sleep, and keep noise to a respectful level after the sun has set. TIA for your understanding
* We want your stay to be relaxing and enjoyable, so please contact us if you need anything or have any issues and we will be happy to help in whatever way we can :)

Stayed for 2 nights with our toddler. My family enjoyed it. Site was convenient, easy check-in access, clean surroundings. Toilets and bathroom are outdated but very functional. Tucked away from home, signal can be out of reach which is ideal for a peaceful retreat. 👍🏻

Loved this Hipcamp! It was in a perfect spot, close to the bike path to ride to a couple of wineries and also only a short drive to explore different locations in the King Valley. The kids loved swimming and kayaking in the river and the lawn we were camped on was in perfect condition for a slip and slide. Dan provided fire wood which awesome for the night. We would stay here again.

Daniel was such a fantastic host, he made sure we were all happy and comfortable. The campsites are perfect if you like big open spaces and manicured fields, the river was lovely and easy to access from both sides. Great for big groups. Thanks Daniel, we had a wonderful time :)

We all loved the experience. We had a medium group which include kids. The site was beautiful and green shaded by huge trees and a beautiful creek water hole. Directions were clear and ample fire wood supply. Daniel was an incredible host with amazing communication and support. Roads were safe for driving into the campground. Everything clearing marked and huge space on the site to feel private and spacious. We had power and clean drinking water on our site. Waking up to peaceful sounds of the nearby cows that just added to experience. Highly recommend this campground to groups and families. One of the best spots I have ever camped in. So close to attractions like Sam Miranda winery that was also exceptional. Waste reserve was a a short drive away at the Oxley reserve. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating from us.

Sally and Adam were great hosts, informative and really helpful
I camped at the pond, it was so quiet and I had my space to see a terrific sunset and sunrise. The night was clear and I was also treated to the Milky Way .. I’d love to go back !

Enjoyed my stay! My spot was In The Pines and while it wasn’t directly on the river, Patrick went out of his way to make sure my access point was assessable. The spot was lovely in the tall gums, and was an easy 1min and half walk to the river. I took my chair, book, and coffee down there in the morning.

We really enjoyed our stay at Buffalo River Retreat. The "Far End" is a great campsite, the river was close, and a great spot to cool off and in the rapids or in the deep water just downstream.
Patrick and Ian were extremely friendly and hospitable hosts. They even brought us some fresh fruit and tomatoes from their garden.
Its a short drive to Myrtleford for supplies, or lake Buffalo for a day out on the water.
I highly recommend this spot

Enjoyed the reduced number of sites considering the space available, it shows the owners care more about people enjoying their stay and privacy over making money. Lovely and peaceful, grass was maintained and instructions were clear from the host. Just a piece of advise, don't follow directions directly from hipcamp, type in the address provided and it'll take you to the actual gate location ☺️ would highly recommend.

It was wonderful. I had the riverside site which had a great beach entry into the swimming hole. There was a drop toilet nearby, very clean with toilet paper available. Both Ian & Patrick dropped by to say hello and have a chat. So relaxing just to sit and watch the cows come down on the other side of the river for a drink. I loved it and would recommend it to anyone.
