Private flat clearing on the mountain ridge with bush, mountain and water views. Only one camp site on our 81 acres. Bush walking tracks. Dogs welcome! Plenty of friendly wildlife including birds, wedgetail eagles, kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, goannas, bandicoots, betongs, dingos and red deer. Two kayaks and red claw pots available for guests to use in Somerset Dam. Water access 2 mins away via prior arrangement through Camp Somerset. Or public day areas, The Spit and O'Sheas crossing around 10mins away. One part of the gravel driveway is steep, so a vehicle with some clearance is advised. ***All campers need to be self sufficient with toilet and shower. Dump point in nearby town.*** (Or portaloo available to hire via extras when you book) Fire pit available and fire wood available for a $20 fee with your booking request. A pile will be delivered to your camp site, which is more than enough for 1 or 2 nights.Hilltop views see property description. Water can be seen through the trees. Flat grassy area. Access via gravel driveway. Only camp site on our property. Our sheds and accommodation are 500m away and can not be seen at all. See owner for kayaks and red claw pots for guest use. Water access by prior arrangement via Camp Somerset (Approx 700m from camp site) access does book out, so is not guaranteed, or head to the public day areas only 15mins away (The Spit and O'Sheas crossing.)

Had a wonderful time at Poppy's Camp for 2 nights. Bebe and her dad were very welcoming and accommodating, and thanks to Bebe we got to see the local wild deer. Peaceful with beautiful views, we'd definitely return.

Beautiful peaceful and private. This was the perfect place for us to get our new pup acquainted to camping. Bebe and family are so welcoming you really feel at home. We will definitely be recommending this spot to family and friends. Stanley the buck is also a sight to see!

Loved this very private camp ground with incredible views, sounds of wildlife and sightings of Koalas thanks to the help of Bebe! Such lovely host and really helpful too. Definitely would come again and hope to see the deer next!
