Creek stay
Had a great stay at Coola. Campfire upon arrival, creek sounds all night, and a little swimming hole a short walk away. My kids even got to feed the baby cow! Thanks for a great stay

River Camp - Private
We loved camping on Dimity & Russell's land! And are already talking about going back. We were a group of 12 (3 families, 6 adults, 6 kids), staying over Easter long weekend (4 nights). Upside for us (downside for some), there's no internet/phone reception. Was about a 30 min drive to get enough reception to download a movie. There's so much to do on the property. Beautiful river, and lots of space for exploring, riding bikes, kicking balls etc. Plus we were lucky that Dimity and Russell had some animals that they let our kids (and the adults) bottle feed, pat and play with. Dimity was great communicating before our arrival and during our stay. She even lit the fire for us before we arrived as we were arriving later in the day. And met each of our party at the gate to show us to our sites (even when we arrived late one night).

Creek Camping
We had a great stay at Camp Coola! Very picturesque down by the creek and over the mountains. Our little ones enjoyed swimming and climbing the rocks, going for walks to visit the geese and horses and also bottle feeding the baby animals. Dimity and Richard were a great hosts, we loved our stay and the local honey purchase. Thank you!

Dimity and Richard were amazingly accommodating and their property is beautiful. We had our own private camp site next to a stream and we had an amazing time. We would most definitely recommend Camp Coola to other people.
