FARM: This is a functioning farm; there are cows and calves most of the year. Our cows are very friendly and curious, and whilst we endeavour to keep them away from the campsite, sometimes they can't help themselves! EXPLORING: Our property joins onto State Forest, which can be explored at guests own risk, once you set foot off our property, Hipcamp no longer insures against injury etc. Within our property, we have bush tracks, animal trails and a trickling stream running through a beautiful, shallow gorge, where many adventures have been had!

Incredible central and private location, set back off the Snow Road in Oxley, Northeast Victoria, boasting natural riverplain terrain with diverse ecology, lagoons and rivers onsite. There is plenty to do in the area from wineries to walking tracks, snow fields to breweries, not to mention renowned Brown Brothers Winery and the Milawa Cheese Factory, just down the road. There are tracks from your campsite that link to the sealed bike path which joins Wangaratta, Oxley and Milawa townships together. Then only a short walk, bike or scooter ride and you are at Miranda Winery, King River Cafe or Oxley Park (with playground and BBQ). There is also a communal swimming hole (King River) at the Stan Allen Reserve just before the Oxley Park. This is particularly great for the campsites that, although are perched on the banks of the King River, don’t have their own designated swimming hole. Also a key feature is, the irrigation during summer months keeping campsites green all year round as well as the natural lagoons to paddle in with the kayak. If you are a keen fisherman, the King River is known for Cod and if you have booked one of the southern most sites you will be able to paddle up the river in a kayak fishing, (kayak not supplied). There are no toilets available onsite and campers must be self-contained keeping in mind, there are toilet facilities at the Oxley Park. Pets are welcome but, must be contained within your site as there are livestock and other campers to consider. For more accuate information pertainnig to each site check out the specific listings/sites. Some sites are set up for group bookings and others for couples with pricing to match. If you have a large event in mind and wish to book out the entire farm, please reach out for further discussions.

9.2km from Bright · 2 sites · Tents

Wandi Farm is a small scale produce farm under development. It is set on 3 acres on the eastern (sunny) side of the beautiful Wandiligong Valley, just 5 minute drive from Bright. The property is on the side of a hill, which provides spectacular valley views to the north. Our family live in the recently completed straw bale house on the property, which sits well below the camping sites. The property has a fully functional camp kitchen with a large deck as well as a bathroom with toilet and shower. Due to the slope the tent sites are not suitable for camp trailers (the tent sites are flat but there is nowhere flat to park a car next to it) and the tent sites are not suitable for vehicles. Therefore we can only accommodate people with tents/swags.

We loved returning to Jackaleah again. Lots of room, and extremely accommodating hosts. The river was great to sit in to cool off and deep enough to have a swim. Highly recommend.

Lovely spot right infront of the dam where we spent a couple of the afternoons fishing after it cooled down. Walking distance to a lovely little winery. No shade from trees so make sure your own as it can get very hot. Kim responded quickly and was very helpful :)

Weekend Trip to Jackaleah Farm Stay - Camping

After being led to the wrong address by Apple Maps, Daniel’s directions were perfect. The camping site is just on the edge of the Oxley township which is very small, so we could walk in for coffee/breakfast. The site was off the road but we could hear the occasional passing car. The grazing cows were interested in our camp and kept their respective distance. There was no direct access to King River, although it was very close. Overall we loved the site and look forward to coming back.

Large open clearing among the impressive gums.

Lovely place to camp, i only spent the night there but could happily spend a week there. The creek is pretty fast flowing when i was there but that spot is in front of the rapids so be careful if you have little ones, small dogs or older in age. But alot of nice places to swim just up from the camp spot less then a 2min walk. Camp fire was allowed and i was able to get purchase wood from the owner if needed. All in lovely spot and easy accessable. Unless the location had a decent amount of rain you wouldnt need a 4x4, 4x2 and common sense would be perfect.

We loved our couple of nights at campsite 2. Such a beautiful place. Our site was in the middle of 3 but there was plenty of space either side to not have to worry about neighbours. The site had a large fire pit to enjoy in the evening. We would definitely consider staying again when in the area and highly recommend it to self contained campers

What a beautiful and secluded location right on the river.. We enjoyed meeting the farm animals and waking up in the morning to birdsong. Charles recommended a drive up the hill to watch the sunset and whilst we were too early for the sunset it is a view worth driving for.. we will be back.

Weekend Trip to High Country Paradise

Our family stayed the weekend and had a fantastic experience! We were warmly greeted by the friendly host and her lovely dog, which made us feel welcome straight away. The campsites were spacious and peaceful, with plenty of room to spread out! The creek was absolutely gorgeous- crystal clear and such a beautiful spot. Plenty of wildlife too! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, scenic getaway. There’s also a glamping tent for anyone wanting more luxury. We can’t wait to return in warmer weather to truly take advantage of the stunning creek. The only area for improvement would be the toilet block which could do with a tidy and stock up, but this certainly didn’t change our experience overall and we’d definitely return!

Pop Willowood on your list of places to visit next! Easy to find, gracious and no fuss host, grassy and level picturesque spot by the Ovens River that has the best collection of skimming rocks (see if your child can beat my eldest’s record of eight skips before hitting the opposite bank!). Thanks Sally - we’ll be back again soon.
