Lovely lovely place, there were 2 other vans there but far enough away to not hear them or sacrifice privacy. Hosts meet you and escort you to the camping area. Nice open fields to look out at for miles or enjoy the big skies. Fire pits and firewood supplied at reasonable cost takes the pain out of taking your own. Tiny bit of road noise during the day but it didn’t bother us, at night it’s dead quiet. Only 25 mins to Geelong and 10 mins to Wimchelsea. Really enjoyed my stay there, would definitely be returning and definitely recommend.

My son and I spent our first time there in a wide open grassy paddock that a creek backed onto. Matine the host was very friendly and helpful with us and helped us settle in later in darkness. Plenty of land to explore so expect a lot of walking if you are into that sort thing. Very peaceful and serene. Would definitely go back again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Sharelle's Galea Ranch. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed and completely at ease. The place was beautiful, and incredibly relaxing, a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. What impressed us most was the serenity of the surroundings and Sharelle's genuine hospitality. She was kind and considerate, ensuring we had everything we needed while giving us ample space to enjoy the place. Waking up each morning to fresh air, beautiful views, and the sounds of nature was a highlight of our trip. The campsite was well-maintained, easily accessible, and exactly as described. Clearly, Sharelle poured a lot of heart and love into creating such a special place.
Thank you, Sharelle, for sharing this paradise with us. We left feeling refreshed, grateful for the experience, and looking forward to returning. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful and unforgettable vacation.

The Fern Glad was amazing! Gorgeous views of the surrounding hills and lovely water sounds from the creek. We treked out to the nearby waterfall which was definitely worth the effort! Even with our late autumn trip, we managed to stay super warm with help from the fire pit - absolute life saver!

We enjoyed camping at site 1 beside the river, the calming sound of a river flowing was nice and made for a relaxing weekend. The site was flat with a firepit, bbq and picnic table which made for a great stay. A great view of the surrounding farmland can be had from the hill top.
The onsite toilet was located in a shed a few hundred metres away, the flush toilet and hand basin were clean and was handy to have.
The track into the site was fine, just care is needed towing a caravan as it can be narrow in some spots.
Other sites were occupied but as they were spread out no noise could be heard, sites are quite private.
This camp was well located to use as a base to explore the local Murrindindi area.

We had a fantastic stay at Galea Ranch with our hiking group.It’s very peaceful, and the perfect base for a weekend of hiking and outdoor adventures. There was plenty of space to camp and a great atmosphere to relax after a day on the trails.
The campfire evenings, shared meals, and time under the stars created memories we'll be talking about for a long time.
If you're looking for a peaceful camping experience with a host who genuinely cares about her guests, we highly recommend this place. Thanks again, Sharelle—we'll definitely be back!

We had a wonderful time at Galea Ranch. The property is beautiful and so well maintained. The facilities are excellent and the hospitality was really lovely. Sharelle and Wayne were generous with their time and the kids adored all the animal interactions.
The site was peaceful and perfect for a family. Lots of thoughtful touches and the kids play equipment was an added bonus. The site itself has a great outlook to the bush. We will definitely be back.

Fabulous spot! The set up is right on the river, it's gorgeous. Toilets, hot showers, rubbish bins, a spit, chairs down on the water, fire pits, washing up bowls, table, bbq, resident platypus, the list goes on! This property exceeded expectations. Easy to follow directions. Michael was an absolute pleasure to deal with and was very accommodating. Cannot recommend this highly enough!

Where to go
Great Ocean Road
The Great Ocean Road west of Melbourne is one of the world's great scenic road trips, but there’s much more to see and do than snapping a selfie at the Twelve Apostles rock stacks. Zipline above the rainforest in Great Otway National Park, climb lighthouses, watch whales, surf iconic Bells Beach, and pitch a tent on any one of several beachside camping areas. Road tripping doesn't get much better than this.
Gippsland and the Bays
Gippsland stretches east of Melbourne to the sea and north to the border with NSW. Most of the coastline is protected by a string of national parks with fantastic seaside camping spots and holiday parks—and camping at Wilsons Promontory (locals just call it the Prom) on the mainland’s southernmost tip is a must-do at least once. This is also where you’ll find Phillip Island, home to the famous nightly penguin parade.
The Victorian Alps
The High Country is the place to go for winter snow sports and summer mountain bike trails, plus bushwalking. If that sounds too energetic, it’s also home to the Great Alpine Road, one of Australia's best food and wine touring routes (and yes, the scenery is pretty good too).
The Grampians
In the state's west, the Grampians are another mountain playground with a network of bushwalking trails, from quick 2-hour walking tracks to 3-day hikes in the Grampians National Park. This is also where campers can find the highest concentration of Indigenous art in the state. Opt for bush camping sites in the national park or more luxurious campsites at Halls Gap or Dunkeld caravan parks.
Murray Riverlands
Australia's longest river, the mighty Murray forms most of the border with NSW to the north, and all along its length are great beachfront campsites from where you can go for a swim or paddle a kayak, catch a fish, or sit back and watch the world glide by. Elsewhere in the riverlands, ride a restored paddle steamer at Echuca, take a cruise through the largest river red gum forest in the world at Barmah, and dine out in the foodie hot spot of Mildura.
