We stayed at Kerri and Windsor’s beautiful site over the King’s birthday weekend. Greeted by friendly kangaroos as we set up camp. The kids zoomed off riding the bikes at the site, setting off to explore the area as we set up camp. Which we did just before the rain set in for the three days!
During our stay our hosts (and fellow campers) went above and to look out for our family of four. Windor’skindly organised an additional tarp to be erected whilst we were out and set up a cozy undercover area with a fire to enjoy out of the rain.
The campsite was well appointed with a kitchen area, bbq, two toilets and a hot shower! There were also a range of equipment for kids and big kids to play with and use to explore the surrounding area.
Even with the rain we had a wonderful time, taking the opportunity to explore Bendigo’s tourist attractions and history.
Of course the sun came out as we packed up, but we will be back… potentially with a caravan.
Thanks to Windsor and Kerri for liking our first us.

Kindness Knook is a wonderful family escape, remote enough to feel like you’ve really got away, but with all the convenience and amenities Bendigo has to offer. Added bonuses were the hot shower and fantastic array of kids activities on the property. We were up on a rainy weekend so didn’t get to make the most of the outdoor activities on offer, but it was great all the same. Windsor and Kerri are such warm and considerate hosts, checking in on us often and Windsor even popped up a shelter for us outside our tent to help keep us a bit drier with the non-stop rain! We will definitely be back next time!! Thanks for a lovely stay Windsor and Kerri! 🥰

Our stay at Kindness Knook was amazing! Despite the wet weather, Windsor went out of his way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Our pup also had a great time exploring the property and watching the kangaroos!
Facilities are great, clean flushing toilets, hot running water and power on site was such a luxury!
Thanks again Winsdor and Kerri for your hospitality!

Both Kerry and Windsor are very welcoming and very accomodating hosts to all the guests to ensure their stay in constant rain very enjoyable
Their facilities are great from the flushing toilets.a hot shower and dish wash up area also made the stay very comfortable for us all
Windsor even opened up a new undercover fire area to ensure we all were warm and dry to stqy out of the constant rain
Both were there to say good bye and it felt like they were already family
We will be back

Great area to relax unwind. There's a pond nearby the campsites and the facilities are also just few metres away from the Camp sites.
The communal fireplace is at the centre which is a nice touch so you can meet other campers and socialise, unfortunately for us we were the only one's there when we camped there.

Nice place to camp with kids. Bikes to ride, kayaks to paddle, yabbies to catch and a fire for marshmallows.

The space is so good, it’s like being in the bush, but only a short drive to some lovely towns. We found it hard to tear ourselves away from the morning fire to go and see some things! The amenities are great, a very rustic toilet and shower block that lacks nothing! Windsor and Kerrie are lovely and accomodating. This place is not to be missed!

Our family loved our stay at Kindness Knook. Kayaking, feeding the kangaroos, great facilities were all highlights. Windsor was very accommodating and flexible as the first night of weather was less than ideal, excellent communication.

- Pet friendly (great for our labs first camping trip!)
- Teen friendly (No complaints about lack of wifi!)
- Plenty of space & things to do
- 5 star amenities, to be able to camp AND have a hot shower was a huge win for our teens.
- The dam was fun to kayak in
- Kangaroos EVERYWHERE
- Lovely to walk around on site
Nothing is too much for the amazing hosts. Genuinely lovely, kind people. Windsor is a great & down to earth host.
I just wish we could have stayed longer!
We will definitely be making a tradition of camping at Kindness Knook regularly.
Thank you Windsor and Kerri!

We loved using the kayaks, having the bbq stuff and some kitchen utensils and spotting kangaroos around. But the best part was Windsor’s friendliness, always ready to help and share tips. We had such a great time!

We had a fantastic stay at the Kindness Knook. The wonderful hosts took time out to meet us on arrival, and touched base throughout the weekend.
Great facilities and plenty for the kids to do, with multiple kayaks, bikes, balls etc. all on hand free to use. Friendly kangaroos on the property were a welcome addition.
Will definitely be back!!

Not enough can be said about this amazing property and site. My family and I were greeted with dozens of Kangaroos sprawled around the property. All the reviews and descriptions we read prior to arriving were spot on, the only thing else we’d add is how incredible the hosts were, greeting us and introducing themselves on arrival. It made us feel so welcomed!
The facilities are truly amazing - it’s set up perfectly for families with kids, bikes for the massive property to ride around on, basketball ring, mini golf course, large water reservoir with kayaks/life vests and yabbie net!
But what really makes this camp special is the outdoor bathroom with hot water and toilet(s) kept superbly clean leaving us feeling like we are at a 5 star hotel 😅. The camp kitchen with microwave and fridge + basic necessity’s (sugar/coffee/matches etc) and large 4 burner BBQ just adds to the creature comforts of this well thought out Hipcamp experience

Windsor was an excellent host who went out of his way to make our Easter experience enjoyable
There were camp sites nearby but everyone was still independent of each other

A huge thank you to Windsor and Kerri for a wonderful 3-night stay prior to Easter. Huge site that made our 9m caravan, Land Cruiser and swag look lost!
Power was available, shower and toilets were brilliant and there was a kitchen with fridge and microwave (although we didn’t need them).
Communal campfire was great, with lots of room and a newly erected windshield as well.
What appears to be a regular family group of kangaroos are in an out all day. The birdlife is wonderful to listen to.
Ms14yo and I took the provided kayaks out on the dam and had fun!
Great Stupa of Universal Compassion nearby and certainly worth the 20min trip.
Kangaroo Flat 15-20mins away.
We very much needed a break and this was definitely what was needed.

These are very kind and considerate hosts who have gone all out to make sure your stay is as comfortable as possible. The oasis they have created in the middle of a dry season is remarkable and brings in an array of birds and kangaroos. No shortage of activities on offer, this is wonderfully set up for families.

The place is amazing and kid-friendly. I went there with my family (2 kids), and they were really happy. They played with bikes, mini golf, and went kayaking — all equipment was provided by Windsor.
The facilities, like the toilets and kitchen, were extremely clean.
The host was very welcoming. He even gave us a hammer since we forgot ours, and lent us a portable lamp because we only brought one.
One more thing: there are many kangaroos
We were all very happy! Highly recommended if you’re camping with kids.

Needed to find somewhere to stay at late notice and nothing available in town due to a massive Junior Country Basketball tournament we were competing in.
Perfect little camp ground just far enough out of town with everything you need for your stay.
Quiet, peaceful setting to get rest and be ready to attack the next day!
Lots of kangaroos roaming.
Windsor and Kerri were delightful hosts and wanting to go over and above to help with anything we needed.
The basketball chat and winning a the trophy was a bonus!
Definitely a place to keep in mind for our next visit or little family getaway!

Our first camping experience as a family and what a wonderful experience it was! The campsite had so much space and there was beautiful land to explore and so much for the kids to do. The shower was incredible and the communal fire pit was a great place for chatting with other campers and toasting marshmallows. Windsor and Kerri were lovely and so hospitable!

I would give 10stars if I could. Windsor was so welcoming and yet at the stand time knew how to give us space. We were so blessed to have the whole space to ourselves during our time and the kangaroos were such a delight. Really special touch by Windsor to allow us to feed them in his backyard. He also went above and beyond to help us when we had a spot of trouble with our campervan. 10/10 would recommend. Also helps that the camp site only opened recently so everything is in very good condition

Thank you Windsor & Kerri for going above & beyond to make our stay so lovely. We felt so welcomed & had a fun get away from the city on your beautiful bush block. The ammenities made it felt like we weren't camping & really appreciated the zooper doopers after we put up our tent in the heat! Thanks again - it was wonderful to meet you.

We had the most amazing weekend at Kindness Knook. Campground (2) is beautiful and the addition of bathroom, shower, kitchen and BBQ make this a real gem.
We spent our days kayaking and swimming in the dam, watching the local kangaroos visiting and the kids and dog loved the tracks through the trees for biking and exploring.
Windsor and Kerrie were wonderful hosts who went out of their way to make our trip enjoyable. Thanks a million and we really hope to be back.

Amazing camping. The one of my best camping site that's Everything what we needs as described from their information. Massive space a per site includes own power plugs for your fridge, etc; and short distance to shower, toilets and kitchen facilities, BBQ. Beautiful mini lake for swim, sunbathing area. More importantly your host is very friendly and easy ongoing. They keep everybody happy and smile 😃

We loved staying with Windsor at his place! It is a beautiful spot to relax amongst the trees, and great to have the dam to stay cool and activities to pass the time. Windsor went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, especially when some unexpected rain came through, and he set us up with some space undercover. 10/10 would highly recommend!

We had an absolutely amazing time camping here with our friends! The host was incredibly warm and welcoming, making sure we had everything we needed for a great stay. The facilities were top-notch—clean, well-maintained, and super convenient for a comfortable camping experience.
The setting was spacious, with plenty of wildlife around, including friendly kangaroos, which made it even more special. Our group enjoyed everything from cozy campfires at night to fun outdoor activities during the day. The peaceful surroundings and clear night skies made it a perfect getaway from the city. There were lots of activities for kids to keep engaged.
Highly recommend this place for families and friends looking for a beautiful and well-run camping spot. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Amazing Spot! We were greeted by Windsor and his lovely wife, who gave us a clear rundown of all the amenities and activities available.
They were so accommodating and had great chats with us! There was a well-kept and cared for bathroom, shower, kitchen and BBQ. They even provided us with extra rope to extend our dog lead so he could walk more freely.
They had about 30-40 kangaroos grazing nearby- such an experience!
100% I'd go back and sad I only stayed one night!
