We had such a lovely stay here. The location is absolutely beautiful, with stunning views and one of the most well-maintained gardens we’ve seen at a campsite. You can tell a lot of care has gone into the property.
Rob was incredibly accommodating and welcoming from the moment we arrived. He made us feel completely at home, checked in to see if we needed anything, offered us bottled water, and took the time to have a really nice conversation. It added such a personal touch to the stay.
A truly special spot and a wonderful host — we’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and scenic place to stay.

Fantastic spot! It was incredibly quiet - we were lucky enough to have the whole place to ourselves. The grounds are very well maintained, with lovely flat grassy sites. It’s dog-friendly and very reasonably priced. Close to Warrnambool city, and the hosts were absolutely lovely. We’d love to stay longer next time!
