Balmattum, VIC · 19 sites · Tents, RVs
Camp beside the peaceful waters of Faithfulls Creek on our private 700-acre regenerative cattle farm in the beautiful Strathbogie Ranges, just outside Euroa.
Glenmaye is a quiet valley property where campsites are well spaced and surrounded by nature. Granite hills rise above the valley and over 500 acres of wilderness bushland stretch out behind the farm, creating a peaceful setting that feels more like a private nature reserve than a campground.
A favourite activity for guests is the short bush walk along the creek to Marraweeny Falls, where water cascades over granite rocks into a beautiful natural pool. Along the creek you’ll also find several swimmable waterholes that are perfect for cooling off on warm days.
Wildlife is abundant around Glenmaye. Kangaroos and wallabies are often seen grazing in the valley at dusk, while kookaburras, parrots and other native birds provide the soundtrack to the day. At night the property enjoys incredibly dark skies, making it a wonderful place to sit by the campfire and watch the stars.
Our campsites are spread out to give guests privacy and space. They are suitable for tents, camper trailers, vans and some caravans depending on the site, with a mix of easy-access areas and more secluded bush camps. Whether you prefer camping beside the creek, under the trees, or out in the open paddock with big skies overhead, each site offers a slightly different experience.
Guests are welcome to explore the property on foot using old farm tracks and bush paths that wind through the hills and granite outcrops. For those who enjoy a short climb, the granite hills above the valley offer beautiful views across the farm and surrounding countryside, especially in the golden light of late afternoon.
Glenmaye is a working farm and a natural bush property. With abundant wildlife and creek environments, guests may occasionally encounter snakes or leeches, particularly near the water, so normal bush precautions such as wearing sturdy footwear are recommended.
If you’re looking for a peaceful place to camp, swim in natural waterholes, explore bush tracks and enjoy quiet nights under the stars, Glenmaye offers a truly authentic High Country camping experience.

Heaven on Earth. We must be the luckiest people alive to have somehow become the owners of this property which is only a short drive from the breathtaking Wilsons Promontory, and according to Lonely Planet, the second best beach in the WORLD.
The property has an abundance of temperate rainforest including massive gum trees, 6m tall tree ferns, permanent spring fed creeks, our own lake and more Australian wildlife than most zoos*. Living here, we feel like we're on holiday every day of the year.
Camping sites are situated at the back of the property just a quick 5-minute walk from the car park. We'll transport your gear to your campsite so you can get set up quickly and start exploring the property or just kick back and relax. The three campsites are positioned so that you won't hear a sound from any other campers on the property. You will feel like you've got the whole place to yourself. And even though the campsites are isolated you'll still enjoy the convenience of clean regular flushing toilet facilities. But unlike any toilet you'll have used before, you'll get to enjoy a our unique loo with a view which is situated right amongst the rainforest looking out over the magestic tree ferns!
Whether you intend to simply relax and listen to all the birdlife, grab a few drinks and head up to the viewing deck to watch the sunset, or put on your hiking boots and explore the rainforest, whatever you do, you will truly get back to nature. As one guest said, "I literally wanted to hug a tree". So what are you waiting for, come and hug one of our trees**.

We border the Mitchell river with the farm so there are about 1 km of secluded banks to sit or swim from if you want to just stay put.
For those wanting pure relaxation, meditation, and soul grounding. We can personally show you some tremendous places on the farm to go within. Pure solace is something that many take for granted. Use our pyramid to draw in Quantum/etheric energy, go to the top of our crystal hill and feel the energies. There is so much to be thankful for when you can release in these spaces. Alternatively sit amongst the cows and feel their energy surround you as their curious nature brings them in closer and closer until they relax around you.
Alternatively if you want to chill with a beer on the river bank and try for some bass, or watch the eastern water dragons play in the sun and water, then that’s a great way to unwind, or soak up the sun rays as it drops below the horizon on the crystal hill or rolling flood plains. A personal favourite of a campfire and a few drinks with the stars is a great way to unwind when you have so much space and privacy. The sites are located next to our rental lodge where we sometimes do retreats, or holiday let it as well. The privacy is wonderful if that's what you are looking for.
A walk each morning from one end of the farm where you will stay to the other and back is a leisurely 2kms so maybe that is your morning start, but walk the lanes and check the fences and cows while you're at it please 🙂, ticks a job for us while your relaxing.
Want to learn about the history of the area? Well a session with us will teach you everything didn't know about the Dargo High Plains, the mountain cattlemen of the high country and much more. Take advantage of your time to enjoy the history of the area and the wonderful past times enjoyed.

Need a few more things? Bairnsdale is 24kms away from the farm and offers all you need. Lakes Entrance is about 40 mins for a day out on the beach. Paynesville around 30 mins.
If you want to venture up into the mountains then why not go through Dargo just 45 mins and up onto Mt Hotham (Summer only) via the Dargo High Plains. It’s a great track and on occasions I take people up for a guided tour and secret camp spots on my yearly run up there for my own relax time.
East Gippsland in general is a wonderful region to stop and relax during all seasons but especially summer with the water activities available, the camping in the high country, and the markets that abound the area.
How do I get to be on this great farm?
Well I am glad you asked! Just contact us through this website!
Looking forward to meeting you and welcoming you onto our family farm of 124 years.

Balmattum, VIC · 19 sites · Tents, RVs
Camp beside the peaceful waters of Faithfulls Creek on our private 700-acre regenerative cattle farm in the beautiful Strathbogie Ranges, just outside Euroa.
Glenmaye is a quiet valley property where campsites are well spaced and surrounded by nature. Granite hills rise above the valley and over 500 acres of wilderness bushland stretch out behind the farm, creating a peaceful setting that feels more like a private nature reserve than a campground.
A favourite activity for guests is the short bush walk along the creek to Marraweeny Falls, where water cascades over granite rocks into a beautiful natural pool. Along the creek you’ll also find several swimmable waterholes that are perfect for cooling off on warm days.
Wildlife is abundant around Glenmaye. Kangaroos and wallabies are often seen grazing in the valley at dusk, while kookaburras, parrots and other native birds provide the soundtrack to the day. At night the property enjoys incredibly dark skies, making it a wonderful place to sit by the campfire and watch the stars.
Our campsites are spread out to give guests privacy and space. They are suitable for tents, camper trailers, vans and some caravans depending on the site, with a mix of easy-access areas and more secluded bush camps. Whether you prefer camping beside the creek, under the trees, or out in the open paddock with big skies overhead, each site offers a slightly different experience.
Guests are welcome to explore the property on foot using old farm tracks and bush paths that wind through the hills and granite outcrops. For those who enjoy a short climb, the granite hills above the valley offer beautiful views across the farm and surrounding countryside, especially in the golden light of late afternoon.
Glenmaye is a working farm and a natural bush property. With abundant wildlife and creek environments, guests may occasionally encounter snakes or leeches, particularly near the water, so normal bush precautions such as wearing sturdy footwear are recommended.
If you’re looking for a peaceful place to camp, swim in natural waterholes, explore bush tracks and enjoy quiet nights under the stars, Glenmaye offers a truly authentic High Country camping experience.

The property has an abundance of temperate rainforest including massive gum trees, 6m tall tree ferns, permanent spring fed creeks, our own lake and more Australian wildlife than most zoos*. Living here, we feel like we're on holiday every day of the year.
Camping sites are situated at the back of the property just a quick 5-minute walk from the car park. We'll transport your gear to your campsite so you can get set up quickly and start exploring the property or just kick back and relax. The three campsites are positioned so that you won't hear a sound from any other campers on the property. You will feel like you've got the whole place to yourself. And even though the campsites are isolated you'll still enjoy the convenience of clean regular flushing toilet facilities. But unlike any toilet you'll have used before, you'll get to enjoy a our unique loo with a view which is situated right amongst the rainforest looking out over the magestic tree ferns!
Whether you intend to simply relax and listen to all the birdlife, grab a few drinks and head up to the viewing deck to watch the sunset, or put on your hiking boots and explore the rainforest, whatever you do, you will truly get back to nature. As one guest said, "I literally wanted to hug a tree". So what are you waiting for, come and hug one of our trees**.

We border the Mitchell river with the farm so there are about 1 km of secluded banks to sit or swim from if you want to just stay put.
For those wanting pure relaxation, meditation, and soul grounding. We can personally show you some tremendous places on the farm to go within. Pure solace is something that many take for granted. Use our pyramid to draw in Quantum/etheric energy, go to the top of our crystal hill and feel the energies. There is so much to be thankful for when you can release in these spaces. Alternatively sit amongst the cows and feel their energy surround you as their curious nature brings them in closer and closer until they relax around you.
Alternatively if you want to chill with a beer on the river bank and try for some bass, or watch the eastern water dragons play in the sun and water, then that’s a great way to unwind, or soak up the sun rays as it drops below the horizon on the crystal hill or rolling flood plains. A personal favourite of a campfire and a few drinks with the stars is a great way to unwind when you have so much space and privacy. The sites are located next to our rental lodge where we sometimes do retreats, or holiday let it as well. The privacy is wonderful if that's what you are looking for.
A walk each morning from one end of the farm where you will stay to the other and back is a leisurely 2kms so maybe that is your morning start, but walk the lanes and check the fences and cows while you're at it please 🙂, ticks a job for us while your relaxing.
Want to learn about the history of the area? Well a session with us will teach you everything didn't know about the Dargo High Plains, the mountain cattlemen of the high country and much more. Take advantage of your time to enjoy the history of the area and the wonderful past times enjoyed.
What is available off farm?
Number one, the pub with great counter meals is across the river, 5kms away. Lindenow Farmers Hotel is iconic in its design and history, the reputed Lindenow Long Paddock Cafe is also a few hundred metres from the pub, and the Post Office and Store have all your essentials. Need a few more things? Bairnsdale is 24kms away from the farm and offers all you need. Lakes Entrance is about 40 mins for a day out on the beach. Paynesville around 30 mins.
If you want to venture up into the mountains then why not go through Dargo just 45 mins and up onto Mt Hotham (Summer only) via the Dargo High Plains. It’s a great track and on occasions I take people up for a guided tour and secret camp spots on my yearly run up there for my own relax time.
East Gippsland in general is a wonderful region to stop and relax during all seasons but especially summer with the water activities available, the camping in the high country, and the markets that abound the area.
How do I get to be on this great farm?
Well I am glad you asked! Just contact us through this website!
Looking forward to meeting you and welcoming you onto our family farm of 124 years.

Very enjoyable 4 night stay here. Tom the host is very friendly and made us feel at home. We all enjoyed the night time animal walk he hosted. Camp sites are a good size and we didn’t feel too cramped next to fellow campers on the site. Would highly recommend staying here and would be happy to come back for another stay.

Beautiful location that felt isolated but only a 15 minute drive to Euroa. The campsites were well maintained and the Highside camp was very private. The kids loved the access to the creek, the open space for bike riding, and Ben the working dog!
The property provides good hiking opportunities, centred around the amazing waterfall and swimming holes.
Matine and family are great hosts. Highly recommended!

Loved the scenic views of the mountains in the distance from Tom's place. Excellent customer service from both Tom and his wife. Immaculate bathroom and toilets, always cleaned morning, noon and evening. Plenty of things to do around the camp site. I hope in future Tom has capacity to clean the posted camp sites of kangaroo/wallaby business, otherwise 9.5 out of 10. We will be back 100% next time. Thank you both.

Absolutely beautiful property. Perfect campsite for our young family. Secluded even over Easter weekend. Beautiful walks and scenery. Martinez’s Dad went out of his way to spoil our kids. Took them on a ride on his RTV to see the cows, feed the horses and a tour of their family veggie garden and orchard. We can wait to return

We loved camping under the stars. Being the only group for the weekend, we enjoyed the peace and quiet. Toilet was clean and we came home with our spirits. If planning on swimming though, perhaps check beforehand whether the waterhole is dry or not. Can definitely recommend this beautiful campsite and will gladly camp there again.

The site was beautiful, so many trees and access to the river. It felt tucked away but we enjoyed walking from the site to town and to the bridge. Kim was perfectly hospitable and her dogs were beautiful and so friendly - our small dog loved playing with them.
