Weekend Trip to Whispering Gums

Great spot Great hosts Perfect experience Highly recommend

Weekend Trip to Whispering Gums

Sues property was absolutely incredible! We will 110% be back to camp there! Everything was well maintained, it felt like camping in the middle of no where with a touch of luxury, but only a stones throw away from the pub. Great fire pit, cabin/hut to use with table and chairs, pots and pans and other bits and bobs. Picnic table and sink was great and used a lot! And the toilet was great! Easy to use and far enough away to not feel too close to camp, but not too far to get too. Fire pit next to the lake was serene, the birds and wildlife came to life after 5pm. Sue was so lovely, brought us some firewood and made sure we had everything we needed and was very communicative. Absolutely loved it!

3 nights at Tonimbuk Farm

We had a lovely time at Tonimbuk Farm, our hosts were accommodating and the views were beautiful. A countryside delight an hour from home

Weekend Trip to Millers Farm "The Hills are alive"

Lovely people. Showed my daughter the various animals on the farm. Nice spot to camp with a fire pit.

Weekend Trip to Whispering Gums

We had an amazing time camping at Susan and Chris’s beautiful property! Our group of 8, most of whom were first time campers, absolutely loved the experience. Susan and Chris were incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay, which made it even more enjoyable. The facilities and amenities were excellent and made everything so comfortable. The whole setup was perfect for both seasoned campers and beginners. We’d definitely pitch our tents here again. Highly recommend this spot especially for anyone new to camping!

Weekend Trip to Tonimbuk Farm

We had a wonderful experience at this beautiful campsite! The location is stunning, with easy access and very clean, well-maintained sites. Rob and his wife are truly special hosts friendly, welcoming, and full of great energy. Their dogs, Max and Mali, are absolutely adorable and added such a warm, homey touch to our stay. We felt right at home and are already looking forward to coming back soon

Weekend Trip to Millers Farm "The Hills are alive"

Such a beautiful place to introduce our little ones to camping. Kate and Darren were lovely and helpful. There were so many different animals on the farm and the kids got to interact with them. Also love how so many of the animals on the farm were rescues. We look forward to visiting again!

Weekend Trip to Bruthen Creek Pastoral Farmstay

Such a fantastic peaceful spot. Big flat grassy areas with terrific outlooks. Easy access to sites( which are well away from each other. Really private). Hosts are really nice and accommodating.

Weekend Trip to Tonimbuk Farm

Upon arrival, we were met by Robert on a tractor who came to greet us with 3 friendly dogs in tow. There is a Welcome Sign with your names on it, therefore, directions are easy to see where you should be. There was even a campfire pit stocked up ready to go, along with a Starter Kit supplied. These things were a really lovely touch we thought. This spot is absolutely picturesque by the Dam and the pictures most definitely don't do it justice. It's a superb view to wake up to in the morning, sit by the sun in the day or by the campfire at night. After a chilly evening, we woke to a variety of birds singing in the morning, to the ducks frolicking in the water, even a platypus surfaced for a visit in front of the firepit to look at us. The whole experience was absolutely peaceful and relaxing. The Hosts are super friendly and go above and beyond what you'd normally see with Hosts, so that felt really special to us. We really look forward to returning with our two teens to go fishing in the Dam or to stay at the Creek Site to see how that one is. Thankyou Robert and Leanne. Bless!

Weekend Trip to Millers Farm "The Hills are alive"

Can't recommend enough. Kate is an extremely welcoming and responsive host. Awesome spot, a lot of love has gone into the property and it shows. Place has plenty of character. Tank water, firepit and porta loo made it a very comfortable stay. Hanging out with the animals was a highlight. All have funny personalities especially my new best mate Ezekiel. Would go back in a heartbeat

Weekend Trip to Whispering Gums

A lovely campsite amongst lush farmlands. It was nice to wake up to the sounds of the country (such as cows, roosters and kookaburras). A beautiful campsite on the dam. A few flat areas for tent camping, but vehicles and camper vans will likely require levelling. A great campsite overall, we hope to come back one day! Thank you to Sue and Chris for being such great and welcoming hosts!

Weekend Trip to Bruthen Creek Pastoral Farmstay

Stunning well maintained property. Very spacious. Damian is a great host and supplied some fire wood. Great views with also a dam that is catch and release. My daughter’s partner caught a decent size fish. Thanks so much! We will definitely be back.

3 nights at Whispering Gums

Perfect, tranquil, picturesque spot to relax and unwind. All the facilities you need, great for dogs, an easy drive from Melbourne, a few minutes from the town of Neerim South and 20 minutes from the amazing Noojee Pub. Heaps of great bush walks nearby too. Hosts Sue, Chris and Banjo (their dog) made us feel very welcome and were super helpful with recommendations. Can’t wait to go back one day!

4 nights at Bruthen Creek Pastoral Farmstay

This was a great spot to experience off grid camping. A wonderful landscape as a backdrop to wake up to and enjoy a fire into the evening. The hosts were very welcoming and we were able to feed the horses with our young ones. Also do get the eggs they were delicious. Will return.

4 nights at Millers Farm "The Hills are alive"

Awesome spot, so great with the kids and the camp shelter is awesome. So nice waking up to Russell the rooster and feeding the animals with Kate and Darren. Who doesn't want to kick off a goat toe scratch from their bucket list?! 😂 Toilet perfect, always clean, camp shelter excellent, even balls and books for the kids. Amazing! Thanks Darren and Kate! 😍

2 nights at Mountain Life Retreat

Beautiful spot for a nice weekend away. Lots to explore on the property and Chris is an amazing host. We’ll be back!

4 nights at Whispering Gums

A really lovely spot not far from Melbourne with super friendly hosts. Fantastic amenities - the site had a cabin, an outdoor kitchen set up and a great fire pit. The dam is not suitable for swimming and it's important to note that the paddock where tents/Caravans set up is not particularly flat. We set up two camper trailers and two tents ok (albeit on a minor slope).

4 nights at Bruthen Creek Pastoral Farmstay

A peaceful getaway with the best hosts! We recently stayed at Western Pasture and had such a great experience. The owners were absolutely fantastic—warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about their property. The sites themselves are spacious and serene, perfect for relaxing and soaking in the quiet. With a beautiful dam onsite and bushland nearby, there was plenty to keep the kids entertained and exploring. Highly recommend for families or anyone looking to unwind in nature.

Weekend Trip to Bonnie Brae Homestead

Great site! Very flat and grassy. Beautiful views. Clean toilets. Friendly host, Charlotte. Our group had a wonderful stay. Would recommend to all.

Weekend Trip to Bruthen Creek Pastoral Farmstay

Our second trip there and definitely not our last!! Such a stunning property. Private site and barely know that anyone else was there. Fantastic host too! So perfect in every way.

Pitch your tent or camper near our picturesque dam with 3 jetties, a boat shed and walking track along dam. Throw in a line to catch a silver perch, bass or get the kids to catch some yabbies, they are great cooked up with chilli & garlic. Our property joins onto the Neerim East State Park for those walking enthusiasts or we can accommodate your horse in our yards should you want to explore the bush with many tracks directly from the property. We offer drinking water & toilet accessed from house. Neerim South is home to many wildlife and expect to see many bird species, kangaroos, deer and the odd wombat trailing through. Chris & I are campers ourselves, so we know how nice it is to have a quiet and private spot all to ourselves, however before long you have people on top of you at caravan parks or at free camping you may experience the doof doof music until god knows what hour. So we offer exclusive private campsite all to your self, we only book one group at a time. Neerim South is home to many wildlife and expect to see many bird species, kangaroos, deer and the odd wombat trailing through.

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**. * comparison made with zoos that don't have many Australian animals ** please ensure you have the tree's consent first ;)
