Weekend Trip to Fowkes Family Flower Farm

It was a delightful experience. My son loved to run around the little hill and play at the playground. Feeding sheep was an extra fun for him. The owner Tamara was responsive and sweet as well. I would love to come back here with our dog and some sandpit toys next time.

2 nights at The Fern Glade

The owner has gone to every effort to maintain the site, to ensure a comfortable and relaxing stay.

Weekend Trip to The Fern Glade

As we took a dog camping for the first time, we loved that it was fenced. Even though we ensured we always had eyes on him, for wildlife safety, it gave us confidence that we knew he was secure. We also LOVED the creek next to camp as the dog loves to swim. Michael was very accommodating, and easy to connect with. Having the bathroom a short stroll away, which was clean, was also a bonus. A thoroughly lovely evening in an amazing location.

Weekend Trip to Fowkes Family Flower Farm

Loved the campsite, nice and flat, Tamara was a lovely host, our grandgirls loved it running in the paddock, saw lots of kangaroos, site was very quiet, will definitely be back 😊

Weekend Trip to Nanadhong Views

Consuela was really helpful and friendly. Lovely campsite with a clean toilet that flushed as well as access to electricity and plenty of room for the kids to safely explore. Beautiful views and amazing sunsets. I highly recommend this site for families.

Weekend Trip to Silver Creek Escape

Our third time back - we love it here!!! Thanks Clara and Caleb.

3 nights at Fowkes Family Flower Farm

We had a fantastic time at Tamara's property. She was super friendly and helpful, without getting in the way. We did a long weekend of two families with two kids and two dogs - everyone had a wonderful time. The property had plenty of room and a clean composting toilet. The toddlers absolutely loved feeding the sheep and using the play equipment. It was also close to some nice walks and a short drive into town, markets etc. Both sites slope a bit but we could find flat enough ground. I think site 1 looked a bit flatter and used a shipping container as a wind breaker. We would happily stay again!

Weekend Trip to The Fern Glade

Such a beautiful property. Large flat space for tents, gorgeous area enclosed with huge trees and a babbling stream, loads of birdlife (the wrens and Willie wagtails are so cute). Well appointed with a toilet and water nearby and only a 15 minute drive to a servo if you need extra firewood or supplies. We would definitely recommend it and hope to come back.

Weekend Trip to Silver Creek Escape

Facilities were spotless, and hosts very friendly. Thx for the lovely weekend.

Weekend Trip to The Fern Glade

The Fern Glade was a beautiful weekend escape from the city, only a 1.5 hour drive from Melbourne. Site 1 was perfect with easy access to the river, close to the water tank and had some lovely nights with the campfire. Michael was easy to communicate with and so graciously let us have a late checkout since there were no check ins that day. Dogs had a ball, caught a little rainbow trout on the last day. Good time had by all. Thanks Michael, we will be back.

Weekend Trip to Fowkes Family Flower Farm

An incredible stay at Fowkes family farm! We went there for farm stay and Tamara made it a special stay. So clean, so quiet, so comfortable…

Weekend Trip to Castella River Farm

I camped at the River Site, and it's superb. Your own little area, completely surrounded by bush, with the Yea river right there. There's a fire circle, so no need to bring your own pit, a table with chairs, and a platform looking over the river. I loved the privacy, and felt like I was out in the bush. Can't wait to go back.

Weekend Trip to Cathedral Views Campsite

Beautiful property and very easy hosts to communicate with, would stay again for certain.

The site is impeccably clean and thoughtfully arranged, making it an ideal choice for a peaceful getaway. Highly recommended !

The Fern Glade

3 sites · RVs, Tents20 acres · Murrindindi, VIC

Nestled right beside the Murrundini River, all 3 campsites are beside the river, and well spaced apart for privacy and peace. Campsite 2 (site two) is shady, surrounded by tall swamp gums, black wood wattles and tree ferns. This spot is at its best from late spring through to autumn . Site One is a large flat area beside the river that is good all year round. It has fencing and gates, perfect to let dogs run free without going too far. Site 3 (Craig's flat), is a large open campsite, able to take more camper-vans/ tents with plenty of space. All sites have fire places and gas BBQ's (byo gas bottle) And there are plenty of fish for those that want to try their luck. The original home stead (built in 1876) burnt down in the 2009 black Saturday fires. There still remains many 150+ year old elms and other European trees near the toilet block, which are delightful in autumn. We have some fantastic views from the hill up and down the Murundindi Valley, especially at sunset. We're located only a few short km's from Wilhelmina Falls and Murundindi Scenic Reserve, you get the best part of the river, without the crowds. We are a short drive from Melbourne, and easy access to the townships of Yea and Yarra Glen for supplies if you need them. Amazing, abundant and rare bird life to enjoy and photograph. (see guests photos). With no light pollution this is the ideal spot for star gazing.

Magic Mountain

2 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents40 acres · Humevale, VIC

Nestled amongst the mountains just outside of the township of Whittlesea our 40-acre property sits above the clouds. This experience comes with sweeping views, a hidden waterfall, a clear campground, and plenty of wildlife. The camping area is accessible by 4WD only, otherwise, strap on a backpack and earn it! (800m walk/hike from where a non-4WD can park). The waterfall is reached by a single trail track from the campsite, and you do need to be an experienced hiker to get to the waterfall. Which is part of the appeal! We welcome self-contained campers, who bring their own toilet and take all waste with them. We have a strict Leave No Trace policy. Or choose to stay in our beautiful A-frame cabin, with plush bedding, cozy fire, and outdoor lounge. More than anything else this is a place to relax and be away from normal, live outside yourself, and rediscover what weekends are for. Dogs are welcome, so long as they don't bother the wildlife. Campfires are allowed, BYO firewood or campers can collect fallen timber from the property.

Wildlife we have seen on the property includes Wallabies, Echidna, and an abundance of bird life. Laugh with the Kookaburras at sunset. Dogs are welcome however due to wildlife and the bush location, we ask that you please keep them on a lead at all times. If you are planning on bringing a dog with you, please let us know in advance. We also have horses (separate from the campsite) that campers can feed a carrot if they wish! Water is available from our stables water tank.

Would suit campers who want to kick the footy, wade in the river and maybe go 4wding or out and about fishing. Ok to play your own music near the camp fire as you are far enough away down the back paddock! **Not suited to those wanting to be in the middle of nowhere
