Unfortunately our site was not what we were expecting. I pictured the river with the kayaks but we actually had a wire fence in front of us and a paddock of thistles behind us. The site was infested with European wasps which was challenging and the toilet was full to the brim with excrement and looked as though it hadn’t been emptied in a long time. We only stayed one night instead of two and won’t be returning.

A wonderful location for first time campers like us. The spot was lovely and secluded and just allowed us to connect with nature and enjoy the birds and the warmth of a campfire. Being close enough to the city also provided me with the piece of mind that it the weather turned bad, we could still get home.
A beautiful location and worth the visit.

Overall the camp site was not as advertised. It’s a farm, most of which feels untended or completely overgrown. The property is fenced, as a farm should, so accessing to the adjoining forested area is not possible. Perhaps for a large group the cost is acceptable but for two people, $120 for two nights, did not feel like value for money.

Great quiet spot to spend a few days camping. Reasonably flat ground to setup camp and plenty of kookaburras around to make you feel right at home. There were other campers in the distance, but we couldn’t hear them. Directions were easy to follow and the site is about 15-20min out of either Gembrook or Junction Village. Note that phone reception is limited.

Jana is such a warm and welcoming host. We arrived quite late when it was already dark, and he kindly guided us so we were able to find the site.
The site itself is beautiful, with stunning views and a huge area to explore. It feels peaceful, private, and surrounded by nature. There’s so much open space to wander around, and our dog had the best time, he was absolutely thrilled running around and exploring.

Loved our stay at the farm. The site was quite private. It was lovely to swim in the dam. There are kayaks and a paddle board there that you can use.

We loved listening to the kookaburras and lyre birds; we enjoyed looking at the blackberries and taking the canoe out on the dam.
Jana’s farm and its location to Warburton and the mountain biking trails meant we had a fantastic weekend away.

What an incredible find! Our stay at Jana’s farm was easily one of our best Hipcamp experiences to date. We set up camp in a stunning, secluded spot tucked under the shade of massive chestnut trees.
Jana is a phenomenal host who welcomed us with freshly picked raspberries right from the farm. He was incredibly friendly and even saved the day by letting us charge our battery when our solar panel failed. We were also lucky enough to be there while they were processing honey; getting to see the process and taste raw honey fresh from the hive was an unforgettable highlight. Jana even let us pick some extra berries to take home with us.
The property itself is beautiful. The kids had a blast kayaking around the dam, and it was such a relief to find a spot where our dog could run off-leash and enjoy the open space as much as we did. Between the scenery, the delicious farm treats, and Jana’s genuine kindness, we couldn't have asked for more.

We really enjoyed our stay. Our site was great. Plenty of shade and quiet and peaceful.
Still close enough for toilet. We had a great fire and there very generous with the fire wood bundles
Jana is very helpful and accommodating as a host
Took the time to make sure we had a great day picking all the different types of berries available. Will be going back again and try the site nearer to the lake.

We had a fantastic stay and really enjoyed our time here. Jana was an exceptional host — incredibly helpful, with clear instructions for everything, regularly checking in, and even delivering us fresh berries to enjoy, which was such a thoughtful touch.
The property is a working berry farm with plenty of space to explore, and it was wonderfully dog-friendly, which we loved. friendly. There are three campsites on the property, but they are well spaced apart, so you don’t see or hear other campers, which made it feel very private and peaceful.
The lake/dam was a real highlight — perfect for cooling off on hot days. Having kayaks and paddle boards available made it even better, and it was such a relaxing place to unwind.
We would absolutely recommend this stay and would love to come back.

My dogs and I loved camping at Jana's berry farm. Such a beautiful property and the site was nice and private and the other campsites were not visible. The days were hot so we made full use of the creek with kayaks and stand up paddle board. The dogs had a blast swimming and we thoroughly enjoyed the berries. This is now my new favorite hip camp and I can't wait to go back!
