Weekend Trip to Redmans View

Spectacular spot, we will be back again and again!!

Weekend Trip to Redmans View

This was our second time staying at Redmans View and again, highly recommend. The site is easy to get to, nice and flat and well maintained. The views are amazing and it’s a quick 15mins to halls gap. Thanks Susan for another awesome stay.

1 night at Farmland Camp

This was a great stop over with a hidden gem within a short walk (perfect for sunset) the kids really enjoyed it

4 nights at Farmland Camp

We loved this place , we had a little jayco and there were so many places to chose to stay. We picked a spot by the creek that was perfect and was visited daily by sheep birds and our favourite Steve dog who became our dogs bestie . Would recommend and we will visit again .

3 nights at Grampians Old Man Emu Stay

Great spot to spend a few days camping. Lots of space, loved the fire pits, so close to everything in the Grampians. Really friendly hosts.

Weekend Trip to Cooinda Burrong Scout Camp

Beautifully well maintained camp area, spaced well apart from others, nice toilet/ shower block, really quiet, only 4 other groups in the whole site over ANZAC weekend. Phone service was patchy, when it worked it was good, but otherwise a dead zone. Easy to find and get to. Would come again!

Weekend Trip to Happy Wanderer Holiday Resort

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Happy Wanderers Resort! Phill was incredible host — warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about sharing their beautiful piece of land with visitors. What stood out the most about their property was the peaceful, spacious setup nestled right at the base of the stunning Grampians. The campgrounds were thoughtfully maintained, with plenty of flat, grassy areas to pitch a tent or park a camper. Each site felt private and well-spread out, surrounded by nature and offering breathtaking views of the mountains at sunrise and sunset. We loved how close it was to hiking trails, waterfalls, and local attractions, yet it still felt like a hidden retreat away from the crowds. Waking up to birdsong and ending the night under a spectacular starry sky made it truly magical. The facilities were clean and convenient, with good access to water and basic amenities. If you’re looking for a peaceful, authentic camping experience in the Grampians with genuinely lovely hosts, Happy Wanderers Resort is a perfect choice. We’ll definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Happy Wanderer Holiday Resort

Great convenient spot All facilities include Thankyou

Weekend Trip to Yarriambiance

We loved our stay at the Yarriambiance creekside deluxe campsite! The campsite was very well equipped with a bbq, sink, electricity, hot water etc, and only a short walk up the driveway to the ensuite. Not to mention all the beautiful little luxurious touches like the hammock, fairy lights and swing set! Such a serene location, it was magic waking up to the sounds of birds each morning, and watching the stars in the sky at night. A highlight of the trip was getting to feed the resident camels - such cool animals! We will definitely be planning to come back to this little slice of paradise.

2 nights at Fulham Homestead

We loved this location, beautiful setting, fishing, kayaking, fire, easy access, just terrific.

2 nights at Fulham Homestead

4 nights at Grampians Old Man Emu Stay

Great large sites. Fire pits and picnic tables. It’s quiet and ultra clean. Only 6 km from the centre of Halls Gap. Perfect location.

5 nights at Yarriambiance

Yarriambiance was the perfect balance of bush camping and creature comforts, ideal for a family gathering of all ages. Lots of thoughtful additions to the site to make it fun for all. We would definitely stay here again!

3 nights at Farmland Camp

The Farmland Camp was amazing! Lots of spots along the creek, amazing views of the mountains and perfect distance from Horsham and Halls Gap for hikes or anything else. Steven was super helpful and quick with his replies when needed. His dog, sheep and horses are all super friendly and the sheep come past each morning to say hi. Would definitely recommend this for anyone and will definitely come back for our next trip to the Grampians!

1 night at Fulham Homestead

Beautiful spot! Can park right up near the river. Level sites, fire pits with plenty of wood around to collect. Beautiful little doggo!

2 nights at Fulham Homestead

We arrived a day early and David went out of his way to accommodate us. The place was easy to find. The setting was beautiful. There were cows, alpacas, geese and Bailey the dog who often hung around. He was more interested in the kids. He did not pay us much attention. There were various spots to set up with plenty of room between campers. Not much noise, the grass was green.

Yarriambiance

6 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents50 acres · Jung, VIC

Yarriambiance (noun), Yar-ri-am-bi-ance: "A feeling or mood associated with fresh air, open spaces, big skies, stunning sunsets, starry nights, open fires and the sounds of nature, on the banks of the Yarriambiack Creek" Do you want a break from the hustle and bustle of the city, the frustration of traffic congestion, from noise and pollution? Does open space, fresh air, and the peace and quiet of nature sound appealing? Well, come and experience the ‘Yarriambiance’ of our unique rural escape. It is not far off the main highway, but far enough that you will feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. You will experience dusty back roads, open plains and the starry skies of rural Australia, yet you will only be 20 minutes away from a bustling regional city (Horsham). Around the property there are many old historic farm buildings, including an original 'boundary riders' hut (circa 1870's). The Yarriambiack Creek is the western boundary of the property, and is a haven for birds and wildlife such as kangaroos & wallabies. Ancient river redgums run along the creek which provide for nice shady spots in summer. The creek relies on seasonal rainfall, and when running, is deep enough for swimming or paddling around in a kayak. When dry, the creek bed makes a fantastic walking track. If you are looking for a unique family holiday, or you are an artist and want to do some songwriting or painting, or just need to get out of the rat race and chill out, then this could be just the place for you. 10 mins to Murtoa, 15 mins to the Dooen Hotel, 20 mins to Horsham, 30 mins to Warracknabeal, 40 mins to the Grampians or Mt Arapilies. A perfect base to explore the renowned Silo Art Trail, Murtoa Stick Shed, local lakes and waterways, state and national parks, and many other regional attractions. But if you are simply into nature or hiking, then just head north or south along the creek, and you will be able to walk for hours and take in the unique scenery. Please note, the property is 'pet friendly' but we respectfully ask that pets are not taken inside of the accommodation.
