Our property is located south of Hobart, with open green paddocks surrounded by rolling hills and woodland. This campsite suits self-contained campers who bring their own camping toilet/shower. There is a steep drive down to the paddock, 4WD is best but have had 2WD vehicles in and out when it is dry. One single party booking at a time, keep it all to yourself and share with a group of friends/travellers. Our paddock is skirted by a flowing creek which you can draw water from and is in a rural area. We have lots of wallabies and possums, and if you're lucky you'll get to see the local platypus! We have many sites but take only one party at a time so it is all yours! One party includes a group of people camping/travelling together and allows for multiple vans and tents. We are flexible on numbers and length of stay (including a discount for a long stay). Get in touch if you would like to discuss! You can choose any area on the paddock to set up - in the past campers have chosen a site that gives them complete privacy. Fire-pot provided, barrow of firewood available to purchase as an extra. Ideally situated between Hobart and the Huon Valley. We are Close to the Longley Hotel which serves meals and has regular live music. 1.5km to Sandfly General Store. 10 minutes drive to a dump point.

Creekside Camp

Amazing spot with lots of wildlife. Very quiet with the convenience of a nice pub down the road. Great base to explore Hobart and surrounding locations. Wish we could have stayed longer! Thanks Jenni for having us.

Creekside Camp

We had a nice quiet weekend, my dog was a bit puzzled by the local wildlife but got used to them. Had a camp fire on our second night was a bit of wood around to collect off the ground. Host greeted us when we arrived and made it clear if we needed anything to let her know. No platypus sitting but I'm sure he was hiding downstream, the creek water level was a little low on our visit. Driveway wasn't an issue for us with a SUV towing a camper trailer but it was dry.

Location, beautiful and peaceful!

This was the best stay of our whole month-long trip to Tasmania. Firstly, the host Jenni is lovely and was very flexible and encouraged a casual approach to camping at the site. Secondly, the location was second to none. 15-20 mins to all three of Hobart City, Bruny Island Ferry, and Huonville and the beautiful Huon Valley. Thirdly - what a beautiful, private creek side spot. Quiet and secluded and completely relaxing. We could not have asked for any more! Highly recommended!

Lovely little piece of paradise to stop off at for a few days. Perfect for exploring Bruny Island and the Hobart area. I look forward to hopefully returning soon. Thanks Jenni for your hospitality.

What a great space to camp, big enough for a group & secluded enough for one. Very handy to alot of places & easy to get too. Will definitely be back!!

We had a very relaxing stay at Jenni’s property. The space was lovely and quiet and had plenty of space for our three families and the kids to run about and explore.
