We loved this place so much that a big part of me wanted to leave a scathing review so we have it to ourselves in future!
We booked at very short notice- only a few hours beforehand. Scott promptly made contact with directions and need-to-know details. Upon arrival he met us at the gate and showed us to our campsite which is set on beautifully lush farmland. We camped on a secluded paddock overlooking the river, with a view of lush green pastures, bushland, and mountains in the distance which are magically misty in the mornings. Curious cows greeted us in the mornings and evenings, much to the joy of the kids.
There is a 5-6m drop on the site by the river, so campers with young children might wish request to be positioned by the creek, or a safe distance away to ensure little ones don't accidentally wander off the edge.
The river is a short stroll or 4WD through a narrow track through bushland, with options for a paddle in the shallows, a float downstream in shallow rapids, or a dip in the deeper swimming holes up or down stream.
The water is clear and pristine, and you can see fish swimming and feeding from the shore.
Scott and his wife Anne welcomed us in the afternoon to feed their friendly farm animals- horses, donkeys, mini Highland cows, pigs, and goats.
There are no amenities or potable water, so you must be fully self-sustained. 2WDs may struggle with the dirt tracks in the wet.
We absolutely loved it and can't wait to come back.

10/10 Experience with Scott
I very much enjoyed camping on Scott’s property. I would say this adds an amazing experience to camping!! Scott was also lovely enough to help find us a flat spot to set up my rooftop tent and was very understanding and helpful. So happy to say i will definately be coming back with more people.

Great spot, great animals
I really enjoyed staying here the night with my partner. Scott was a welcoming host, he showed us around and pointed out the animals. We really appreciated his thoughts in selecting a private camp-site for us.
The stars were beautiful overnight. All the pet animals made for a very memorable trip, I loved their cuteness.

The Best Hip Camp!!
Highly Recommend!
We arrived late at night and Scott came out on his ATV and met us at the gate to lead us to the site. We were able to feed the highland cows and donkeys the next morning! Such a great private camping experience thats more than worth the stop.
