Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Secluded in its location, amongst the bushy hills of Hoddles Creek. Much of the 15 acres is undulating bushland with a track looping the property. The track leads down past a beautiful dam located in the property and weaves its way to border the Kurth Kiln Regional Park. Park near the dam and wake up in the morning to the sounds of the birds and have breakfast by the water. During the day go to the amazing nearby wineries in the nearby yarra valley and enjoy lunch in style. Please note: in case of recent rains 2wd/campervans/RVs may have difficulties accessing the site!!Pitch your tent or park your car in the middle of secluded bushland and enjoy nature at its best. Next to the parking location there is a beautiful 15 min track around the property amongst the trees where you can go for a walk in the morning. The main house is 5 min walk up the hill.

It was a nice, relaxing spot surrounded by trees - lots of birds around. We went in summer so had no issues with driving up and down the driveway. The host is super friendly and responsive over messaging. You can hear the road, particularly motorbikes and trucks throughout the day and night. Also heard gunshots quite a bit at night! No toilet or running water which was a bit of an issue but we knew that signing up to staying there. There was a bit of rubbish around too. Overall would recommend for a nice spot close to Melbourne!

Nice little spot to camp out with the family for the weekend. Directions to the site were clear and it was all very tidy when we arrived. It rained while we were here but it really wasn't the problem it could've been because of the shelter. We did get a lot of little flies our second night, but being next to a dam that shouldn't have been a surprise, just need bug spray next time. The kids had a ball in the nature, the kookaburras laughing during the day were fantastic and the frogs croaking at night put us to sleep. Lots to do in the surrounding area to keep us busy but could've kicked back all day too.

I had a great stay. The surroundings were beautiful and peaceful, perfect for a nature escape. However, be prepared for some truck noise in the mornings. Overall, a lovely experience with a welcoming host! Would definitely recommend.
