37km from Kara Kara National Park · 1 site · Tent, RV
Please read all the info before you book...
This is an ideal spot for a quiet getaway or as a home base if you want to explore the surrounding areas of Dunolly or Dunolly itself.
Early mornings and late evenings you may be lucky to receive visits from Kangaroos. Camp freely around the designated campfire and enjoy an amazing star-gazing experience (on clear nights).
The water hole is good for yabbies and great for skipping stones. We swim in it occasionally but prefer to go to the lake. We cannot endorse any swimming or entering the water hole as it is a liability issue and we cannot be responsible for anyone who chooses to swim or enter the area of the waterhole.
Dunolly town has a great bakery, a pub, and a supermarket.
Lake Laanacoorie 15 mins drive. Great for fishing, boats, and swimming.
***Pit-toilet (portable) available:
- There is a pit toilet available for camper use but it's recommended to have a portaloo and use the onsite dunny as an emergency only.
***Keep Clean.
-We ask that you take any rubbish with you when you leave. We would appreciate it if you could leave the property as you found it on arrival.
***Warning.
-Regular pest control in the area might be a threat to your pet so please ensure that your pet does not stray too far off the property without your supervision. Pest control is usually concentrated in the state forest behind the property.
***Fire Wood:
- You can BYO firewood or collect from the roadside. The state forest at the rear may be helpful but please don't cut down any trees. There is often a fallen tree that you can chop up if you have a chainsaw but it'll be easier to find on the roadside or BYO. If I'm able to provide firewood it'll be stacked but this is not something to depend on as it just depends on availability and time that I may not have.
***More info.
-The campsite is close to the water hole which means it's also at the front of the property and approx 120m from the main road. You will see a vehicle passing by maybe once per hour in the daytime.

42km from Kara Kara National Park · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
Gooseberry Hill is a flat safe paddock area that was once home to dozens of gold miners in canvas tents seeking their luck. It is ideal for campervans and caravans. Situated just on the outskirts of Dunolly, it is very close to town amenities. There is tap water on the site near the 150 year old apple tree near the main road. You are able to camp privately well back from the road.
The site once had brick buildings of shopkeepers and even a hospital - all now long gone. The double story hotel built in 1862 as a Cobb & Co coach hotel for the Gooseberry Hill gold miners, is the only building still standing.
The land had a vineyard at one time, and still has a small olive grove and quince trees.
It was used in the 1870's as a sporting ground with events such as brass bands, Lantern Parades and even a formal Ball in the adjoining Cobb & Co Hotel. It was a wild and rough time in the gold mining days with a double murder at the butchers shop on the site. There was also a Chinese Camp nearby, as well as gambling dens.
All the trees were removed in the 1860's for mining, but now vegetation is being restored.
At the rear of the property is the quarry and old diggings. it is an interesting walk but beware of old mining shafts and deep diggings. In summer time watch out for snakes. Kangaroos, wallabies and echidnas are all around the property.

4 nights at Lovely Bush Property
Staying at the echidna retreat was extremely peaceful and relaxing, the facilities and amenities provided were clean, tidy and plentiful. Clear instructions were provided on the listing, by the host and on instructional paper in the accommodation.
The views, weather and animals surrounding were beautiful as well as the local towns which were rich in culture and provided plenty of site seeing opportunities. The stars were unbelievable and bright as well. We saw an echidna within 5 minutes of our arrival and kangaroos greeted us every morning before the sun fully rose.
Would highly recommend to any people looking to have a peaceful stay away from all the noise and pollution of city living.

We had a great weekend here. The space was open and peaceful, with plenty of room for our 4-year-old kids to explore safely.
They spent hours looking for bugs and exploring the area. One afternoon, one of Nathan’s dogs came to visit and the kids loved throwing sticks and playing with it for the rest of the afternoon.
It was a bit windy at times, which worked well for flying kites and gave us a really enjoyable morning.
Overall, it was a very good experience and we would happily return.

It was a hot hot hot weekend and we spent all of Sunday moving between the shade of the trees and floating in the dam. Our three dogs loved it and settled into camp life straight away.

Overview
About
Embark on an adventure through Kara Kara National Park, a treasure trove of Box-Ironbark vegetation and a sanctuary for native wildlife. Traverse the park's diverse trails on foot, mountain bike, or by four-wheel drive, and witness the vibrant birdlife that adorns the canopy. As dusk falls, settle in at one of the serene campgrounds, where the sounds of the bush become your lullaby.
Notable campgrounds
- The Upper Teddington Reservoir offers a tranquil camping experience amid towering eucalypts and abundant birdlife.
- Teddington Campgrounds provide a rustic escape, complete with facilities and the historic Teddington Hut nearby.
Tips for snagging a campsite
- Book early to secure your spot at the popular Upper Teddington Reservoir, especially during peak seasons.
- Visit mid-week for a better chance at snagging a campsite, as weekends tend to fill up quickly.
- Keep an eye on the park's official website for updates on campsite availability and potential cancellations.
- Explore nearby camping options if your preferred site is booked, as the surrounding area offers additional choices.
When to go
The best time to visit Kara Kara National Park is during spring, when wildflowers burst into colour and the weather is mild. Summer brings heat and requires caution due to fire danger, while autumn and winter offer cooler, yet equally enchanting, opportunities for exploration.
Know before you go
- Check fire danger forecasts before your visit, as the park may close on days of Catastrophic Fire Danger.
- Be prepared for no mobile reception in the campground areas, ensuring you have all necessary information beforehand.
- Accessibility facilities are available, making the park's wonders open to all adventurers.
- Remember to bring your own drinking water and firewood, as these are not provided at the campgrounds.
- Respect the park's wildlife by keeping a safe distance and not feeding the animals.

Unfortunately, it was a very very hot day. It was just all 40° but we didn’t stay long.
