My 7th time camping at this amazing spot. Glen and Kim never fail to deliver. The time and effort they put into the property to ensure everyone is safe and comfortable is truly a credit to them. I had a fantastic time as always!! Also a shout out to Pete and Casey. It was nice meeting you both and hopefully we’ll cross paths at Strath creek again some day

We were very happy during our stay and loved the peace and quiet and views of fruit trees and tree lined forest. Listening to the Bellbirds and watching the Australian Wood ducks traverse the field was a delight. The camp fire setting was lit up at night around the water, very tranquil. Close to many interesting places to visit and walking tracks galore. Tara was very helpful sending us photos for direction onto the farm and came to greet us on arrival. Enjoyed eating the fresh fruit from the trees too.
You are rather exposed when the wind blows through and a 25 minute drive to the nearest dump point should be taken into consideration
if you stay a number of nights.

Glen and Kim have a great place at Strath Creek for camping. We had a great time and the creek was perfect for the hot weather. The gazebo area was great for the kids and it was super easy to find out camping spot. Toilets were clean and short walk from our camp site.

We had a perfect stay at Warburton Holiday Park. It is an excellent camp ground, with easy access to the river for a relaxing float downstream. The amenities were all clean and well equipped and the town & great old pub just a short drive away.
We'll be back soon!

I came to get away by myself for one night and stayed for two. The lovely hosts Glen and Kim were so welcoming and there was always clear communication. The sites are flat and so spacious right on the creek. What a peaceful place. I love that it’s dog friendly (I wish I’d brought my pup) and I can’t wait to come back with a small group of like minded nature loving friends. I dipped in and out of the creek all day.

We do a fair bit of camping around regional Victoria and this place is our favourite spot to date!
Grace was there to welcome us on arrival. She showed us a few spots we had to chose from to set up camp. She also gave us a run-down of the facilities and where we could swim. We were fortunate to have the entire paddock to ourselves, including the huge rotunda, equipped with a bbq, fireplace and plenty of furniture. It was much too hot to light the fire but we'll definitely be back to make the most of it in cooler weather.
There was also a demountable bathroom, set up with plenty of loos and showers. Hot water with great pressure too.
We spent our afternoons patting the friendliest horses and floating on our inflatables in the dam.
The dam was a small walk from our camping spot. We also played a lot of frizbee with Spot, the dog. A total legend!
We also went for a 25 minute drive to a winery called Philip Lobley Wines. They do wood fired pizzas on the weekend and were definitely something to write home about 👌🏻 worth messaging ahead to book. Wines were great also!
Another highlight was seeing the incredible wildlife on Grace’s Land. Plenty of beautiful birds and we even saw an Echidna!
10/10 experience. It's a scorching summer weekend atm but I can imagine this place being equally as magical in winter. We'll also need to come back to check out the Moto Guzzi museum!
Thanks for sharing your slice of paradise with us, Grace. Your hospitality is much appreciated!

Such a wonderful spot! We were lucky enough to get a shady spot by the creek with our pups. We had some hot weather and were able to hop in and out to keep cool, it was a total game changer.
The camping toilets were immaculate.
Kim and Glen are warm hosts and we will definitely be back. Thank you!
