A clear freshwater stream which is home to platypus, crayfish and abundant fish species lines the back of the camp area. You can pan for gold or simply sit and enjoy the relaxing trickle of water. There are two areas to camp: 1. A big flat area at the top of the property suitable for all types of vehicles - large caravans, motorhomes, tents, camper trailers. 2. Lower more private area near the creek for tents and swags only (park and walk 20 meters). Can get busy during peak times and you would be 20-30 m from other Located centrally to the famous Yarra Valley wineries and only 1 hour from Melbourne. Close to the bustling tourist town of Warburton at the foot of Mt Donna Buang. Gateway to Yarra Ranges National Park. Our property is surrounded by nature reserve and houses many native birds and wildlife. We welcome caravans, tents, small and large motor homes. Firewood and farm produce provided (at cost). BBQ and fire pits (when restrictions aren't in place). Well behaved pets permitted. Shared portaloo toilet available. Access to drinking water and rubbish bins.

    We have a large family (with kids ranging from 5 to 17) and 2 dogs, and there was something for everyone! Thanks to hosts Glenn, Mel and Mia for their friendly hospitality! Our whole family (especially the dogs) had a ball! We can’t wait to visit again

    A stunning property - great bird watching, a beautiful creek, and beautiful views. It was bad timing that some council workers were around, and it was a bit closer to noise that we'd hoped, but for a lush semi-suburban getaway it was perfect! Toaster and microwave a bonus! Thanks for having us.

    Like I said, We'd come back anytime. The bottom campsite are defintely the best spots if you only need a small area and you can be away from your car.

    Great Campsite. Great host. We spent 10 days on this site and filled them easily. Highlights are: Bird soundscape in the morning. Dipping feet in the stream on a hot day. Being so close to many great attractions in the Yarra Valley and ranges. Very attentive host. Would stay again.

    Glenn and his family were wonderful hosts, friendly and available, happy to help, give advice ect as our family is new to camping but also gave us the space to enjoy a private family vacation. Beautiful location yet within a 10 minute drive to town. Pishing, paddling & gold panning,all on property!
