Leave the noise of the city behind and travel to Noojee, a town named after the Aboriginal word for contentment or place to rest. Surrounded by lush native bush and towering tree ferns, this picturesque town on the Latrobe River sits on the main access route to the ski fields of Mt Baw Baw and is home to a wide range of heritage and natural attractions.

There is a communal fire pit available, so guests can enjoy a campfire on the cool evenings. Please abide by any local fire restrictions during your stay.

Weekend Trip to Angel Peace

We had such a relaxing stay here. The campsite is peaceful with a beautiful view of the river and surrounding nature. It was also really nice to properly disconnect from our phones for the weekend. Kim was incredibly welcoming. She even surprised us with fresh Korean pancakes while we were setting up (it was 10/10 so delicious). We visited on a rainy weekend and our AWD SUV had no issues getting in or out of the campsite. Kim’s pets were the absolute highlight and truly made the trip memorable. We adored them and would 100% come back. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing, nature-filled getaway with a genuinely kind host.

Great place to get some tranquillity. Thanks for the hospitality with a beautiful landscape. Also remember to visitors coming to the destination, DO NOT FOLLOW GOOGLE to get to destination as it will send you the incorrect tracks (which will cause some of the bigger setups to get in trouble if you do follow google) and follow Andrews directions to the destination. Thanks for sharing a beautiful place for us to visit.

It was pure joy to wake up on Miller's farm. The rooster heralded dawn - better than any alarm clock. That inspired the chorus of birdsong; kookaburras, cockatoos, wattlebirds, magpies, currawongs. That in turn encouraged the sheep - they started their day bleating for their feathered friends to join them. Farmer Anne let the feathers free and mayhem reigned. Chooks, turkeys and the sole duck running around chatting with excitement at the new day. The goats and alpacas were pretty happy to say hi too. How lucky were we to be part of it. Highly recommend Miller's Camp - check in was easy. Communication great. Anne was lovely. Camp kitchen was a bonus. Great stay. Thankyou.

We had the best time tent camping over the long weekend and will definitely be back in the future! Jana was an incredible host, providing clear instructions, firewood and even towing both our cars out on the last day! If there’s been rain or rain is predicted I would recommend having 4WD access at this site however Jana came to the rescue towing us out and making sure we got home safe! Toilets and a sink to wash your hands were a bonus too and always clean and stocked with toilet paper. Thanks again Jana, your property was beautiful and your hospitality put a cherry on top of a great weekend.

We loved how close this little gem was which was perfect for a quick weekend away. Large private space with fire pit and plenty of firewood around. Kids had a ball swinging on the tyre swing and checking out the sheep.
