Quite a secluded and quiet campground, which we loved. The natural surroundings were great, with the woods/trees being very pretty. Easy and quick drive to the beach, especially for the sunset! The amenities were clean and plentiful. Still close enough to Mount Martha town centre if we needed anything!

Rancho Nirvana is a fantastic spot for a relaxing camping experience. Marc is a wonderful host and Murray the dog was a most welcome guest during our stay. Amenities are excellent/ as advertised. We didn’t use the pool but others took advantage during some very hot weather. Great location, close enough for coastal excursions etc. A great stay.

Steve is a friendly accomodating host.
He even let me leave some gear at his whilst I transferred from one vehicle to another , an absolute life saver!
And super dog friendly which is a huge bonus in Geelong area . Limited pet friendly caravan parks available especially in peak season
Also provides power and water .
The location is awesome for getting around Geelong and to explore the peninsula and Great ocean road.
Highly recommend a stay here

My son and I camped here in January.. There are wonderful surprises everywhere to be found. Geoff and Amanda are obviously artisans and have kindly shared their home and passion for hosting. Amanda met us and showed us around the property and all the many conveniences available. I especially liked the open air bath tub and expansive lush lawn areas.
There was another camping group our first night which was distanced enough to let us share our own space with our dog.
5mins drive from beaches and restaurants.
Electricity available. Composting toilet was surprisingly modern and pleasant.
Glamping tent we had a tour of was absolutely gorgeous. Mini fridge, bbq full size bed and rugs. Fancy a.f .

My partner and I had a great time camping at Bay Park. The grounds were lovely we stayed down the far end which made you feel like you were in the woods. It was peaceful and relaxing.
The new toilet/shower block was clean the toilet down near us was a little dated but all added to the rustic feel. The staff were amazing, shout out to Michelle for being so friendly and accommodating we will definately be back.
Also the beach/shops are an hour walk and there is also an hourly bus outside the campsite if you don’t drive.

Will Definitely be coming back.
