320 acres for you to explore! This farm is home to 50 cows, their calves, and a bunch of wildlife! Watch the calves running around, explore the bush tracks, sit by the creek, fish and enjoy the serenity! With 4 private campsites bordering the creek Aroona Park can cater to almost any size party; whether you’re camping solo, a couple on a bush getaway or a group looking for lots of space to spread out, our sites are perfectly positioned to ensure you feel like you’re all alone! WILDLIFE: All manner of birdlife, wombats, possums, wallabies, kangaroos, foxes, deer, water rats, platypus and trout. We are happy to point you toward the best places to see deer feeding and wallowing, fox cubs playing and platypus swimming. FARM: This is a functioning farm; there are cows and calves most of the year. Our cows are very friendly and curious, and whilst we endeavour to keep them away from the campsite, sometimes they can't help themselves! EXPLORING: Our property joins onto State Forest, which can be explored at guests own risk, once you set foot off our property, Hipcamp no longer insures against injury etc. Within our property, we have bush tracks, animal trails and a trickling stream running through a beautiful, shallow gorge, where many adventures have been had! WATER PLAY: Our sites make the most of the creek flowing through the property; Creek Ford and Shady Shallows have the best water access and are especially great for kids. Please be mindful of children around water, an adult must be present at all times. CAMPFIRES: Who doesn't love a good campfire?! We have numerous fire pits at the campsites that are there to be used. No chainsaws are to be used on the property, as per Hipcamps insurance policy. There is plenty of wood around that you are welcome to collect yourselves, otherwise, we can supply loads of wood for $50 (enough for a campfire over a long weekend). SETTING UP CAMP: Please be mindful of where you choose to set up your camp. While we endeavour to keep the sites as safe as possible, some hazards include; trees and limbs falling, snakes and thistles. TRACK CONDITION The track to the campsite is bumpy and needs to be driven slowly, we have had a 22ft caravan towed by a 100 series set up here with no troubles. FIREARMS: as per Hipcamps insurance policy, no firearms are to be used on the property. We understand that State Forest attracts hunting, which we are all for, however, we ask you to respect our wishes and keep all firearms legally stored while you are on our property. Do speak to us for some local knowledge about great hunting spots! WHAT'S AROUND? BENAMBRA is a small, remote farming community 15 minutes from the property. There you will find a post office and general store, a small playground, public toilets and a great pub open for beautiful meals and cold beers Tues-Sun nights! OMEO is about 30 minutes from the property, where there is a state-of-the-art pump track, brand new mountain bike trails, two pubs, a bakery, plenty of cafes/eateries, Foodworks, hardware supplies and a camping and fishing shop. Speak to us about local attractions and things to do in this historic area!

Beautiful place to camp. Had some cracking weather for swimming. And even on a very wet day, sitting and watching the rain with the views… beautiful! We had some car troubles and when Stuart dropped past offered his assistance on his days off if needed. Above & beyond. Couldn’t recommend this spot any more!

Bush Break
High Country Hiatus
This is my first foray into the Hip Camp fraternity, and it won't be my last. Our family had the pleasure of staying at Aroona Park over the New Year break and partook in 7 days of peaceful rest. We enjoyed the seclusion of our (Bush Break campsite) and weren’t bothered by the scrutiny of the Poled Herefords who took a minimal interest in our intrusion. The host, Ashleigh, provided us with detailed directions to the property and the campsite, the site had been well chosen and only a short drive to the creek to obtain water. We were blessed with warm sunny days during our stay, although if it had rained it would’ve been of little consequence due to the tranquillity of the location. The property is a 10-minute drive from Benambra, where we met the friendly publican and staff at the Benambra Hotel. The General store is worth a visit and the owners were up for a chat and information as to sites to visit nearby. Also close by is Taylors Crossing, a great swimming hole on the Mitta Mitta River and only a 30-minute drive. You can also take a similar timed route to Hinnomunjie Bridge on the Mitta Mitta River, although access to the water is limited. There is plenty to see and do around the area if you enquire and go exploring, a great location for a family getaway and a welcoming host with a beautiful property. What more could you want for a perfect getaway?

Great relaxing spot, really friendly hosts. Stayed for a week with 2 kids. Plenty of room move and far enough away from other guests to not disturb one another. Will be back again
