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!

Creek Ford Campsite

Awesome spot and hosts

Magic spot and great hosts. Great site for a large group, we had 4 families camping over easter and had plenty of space, kids had heaps to do playing in the creek and exploring the farm. We loved our stay and will be back next year.

Platypus Paradise

Huge picturesque flat site

Beautiful spot & easy to find with directions. The sites are spaced out with plenty of distance between so your site feels private. Absolutely loaded with birds & such a nice relaxing place to spend a couple of days. Definitely happy we stayed there. Plenty of shade or sun, depending on where you set up.

Ashleigh and Stewart are great hosts and offer freshly mown sites by the river with lots of firewood free to collect for your camp fire or you can purchase from the family if you want. We spent 3 relaxing days watching a Platypus now and tgen in the river. Nice campsite we stayed at the bend.

Stunning Spot!

Beautiful property and spot near the creek. Very well kept and maintained. Lots of space. Plenty of fire wood for a small fee. Very close to Small town Benambra for essentials. We will definitely be back.
