Idyllic Escape vs March Flies…
Perfect location, idyllic and feels isolated.
This stay was in early October.
Busy upon arrival, but luckily landed, arguably the best site on the property.
Flat, grassy and adjacent to bubbling the section of the creek/waterway.
(Southern end, set back on the property, directly behind the toilets, on your right, as you enter)
Bathtubs are a cool addition.. a bit of hard work to fill but worth it in the end.
“Firewood” location onsite was empty, during our visit and the Uki option worked perfectly!
Evenings were the absolute highlight!!
Cool enough to still enjoy a fire in October.
Stargazing, when the skies are clear was truly outstanding, well worth the trip!
Wasn’t as lucky this time, but on my first visit here, saw Fire Flies and witnessed the resident Platypus.. which was amazing!
Mount Warning Hotel is a must visit.
Close, great atmosphere and fantastic meals (dog friendly location as well!)
Uki is only 10mins away, has a great little General Store and cheap firewood ($10/bag, leave money in a bucket. not traditional “firewood” but burns so damn well, it is worth it)
But there was a downside..
The March Flies were horrendous!
Barraged from early morning, throughout the day and into dusk, they were relentless!
During the approaching warmer months, I could only imagine that they would be even worse.
Will definitely be returning. to this HipCamp, loved the ambience, sounds of local wildlife and the locality.
We will just stick to the winter months.
