Nestled amongst the mountains just outside of the township of Whittlesea our 40-acre property sits above the clouds. This experience comes with sweeping views, a hidden waterfall, a clear campground, and plenty of wildlife. The camping area is accessible by 4WD only, otherwise, strap on a backpack and earn it! (800m walk/hike from where a non-4WD can park). The waterfall is reached by a single trail track from the campsite, and you do need to be an experienced hiker to get to the waterfall. Which is part of the appeal! We welcome self-contained campers, who bring their own toilet and take all waste with them. We have a strict Leave No Trace policy. Or choose to stay in our beautiful A-frame cabin, with plush bedding, cozy fire, and outdoor lounge. More than anything else this is a place to relax and be away from normal, live outside yourself, and rediscover what weekends are for.  Dogs are welcome, so long as they don't bother the wildlife. Campfires are allowed, BYO firewood or campers can collect fallen timber from the property.

Awesome private camp site. As mentioned in the description, it’s really only access by 4 wheel drive. Views were great, enough space for large groups.

The camp-site felt relatively private from the A-frame up the hill and the views were beautiful particularly at sunset. The only issue I had was that when I arrived there was a tradesman at the site cutting tiles to repair the hot tub. He had no idea the site was booked and was kind enough to quickly pack up, but as a solo female traveller it was unnerving to turn up to an isolated camp site to find a stranger there. He also left a pile of tiles and buckets behind. I informed the host I was alone and valued privacy prior to my trip so this was a disappointment.

This is a fabulous property. Definitely a 4WD/AWD access on road in. Worth it for the spectacular views. We had AWD + trailer, managed fine. Great table for meal prep, BBQ and outdoor furniture for lounging in the views. A bit of TLC and this place would go from great to excellent. Recommend BYO firewood.

Great views, alot of potential
So much potential, but lacked the attention to detail to justify the cost. Bath is no longer on the deck as the pictures show. We were not provided with the plates, cups and cutlery as described. Head torch provided didnt work either, so I'm glad we packed our own. The drive way is still very difficult for a non FWD to get up. Our car died halfway up the hill, and we had to hike up the rest of the way with our belongings. That being said, the views are amazing, the bed was comfortable - it just lacked the love and attention it deserved.

Not adequate for the price
We had a great time together but the site left quite a lot of room for improvement. The cleanliness was absent with spiders on the bed and not clean linen. There is 0 ventilation so either leave the door open and deal with bugs or shut it and overheat and get stuffy. Sadly we expected a lot for the money asked and were let down.
