Sylva Lagoons is a 570 acre beef cattle and native timber producing farm, which we, Pete and Elaine bought seven years ago, for somewhere beautiful and peaceful for our retirement. It is so beautiful living here we thought we should share it. If you are booking to join us, please give a rough eta so we can be at the campground to welcome you The lagoon at the campground is over 10 acres of water, with native forest on three sides. It is great for canoeing or bushwalking and our bird life is spectacular. No phone or internet since 3G was removed. Sorry! Dog friendly - with limitations. Flushing disabled toilet available. Good access for 2WD. Campfires permitted in a designated area and firewood available for a donation to cut it all. CRITICAL! As we are farmers we need to know your ETA. Please advise us your ETA before arrival so we can be there to greet you.The camp is a lovely area, and each guest can choose if they wish to be in the sun or under the shade of the beautiful trees. The sites are suitable for tents or for motorhomes or caravans.  Critical! As we are farmers we need to know your ETA. Please advise us before arrival. Dog friendly.

Disappointed that Hip Camp directions took me down a track to the back of the property. Well worth the stay as it was so peaceful, relaxing, friendly hosts, clean amenities & an amazing outlook over a lagoon full of birdlife.

We had a fabulous 2 nights at Sylva Lagoons. The grounds and amenities are kept beautifully by Peter and Elaine, it’s a credit to them. The lake itself is brimming with birdlife, so lovely to watch over our campfire in the evening. Situated quite close to Casino and also drives to surrounding areas. We would thoroughly recommend to others and hopefully return ourselves.

The hosts, Peter and Elaine, are simply great people. And as a solo traveller, they made me feel very welcome. The place was beautiful (February) and quiet, so it was a peaceful experience altogether for me, with rainwater shower and a walk through their forest to learn about the trees... I would return again without a doubt. Highly recommend to solo travelers for peace of mind and a peaceful camp!

The landscape and camp sites at Sylva Lagoons Camp were beautiful and well maintained. Peter and Elaine went to great effort to look after everyone. All sites enjoyed good space and the sounds of birds, crackling camp fires, and picturesque sunsets. The bathroom block was well maintained and very handy. Peter delivered a sensational nature & forest walk tour with history, ecology, farming & environmental prowess. The lilypad dam and eagles souring above were a special treat. Highly recommend.

We had such a lovely peaceful stay at Syla Lagoon. Hosts Peter & Elaine made us feel like old friends, very welcoming 💕 We extended our stay to enjoy the tranquility of the lagoon & lush green campgrounds. We were especially impressed with the amenities block with its view, very creative and the gardens lovingly cared for by Elaine. Highly recommended by us.🥰

Peter and Elaine are excellent hosts, always up for a chat. Elaine's gardens are delightful. Lovely site with water filled lagoon; small place so limited neighbours. Firepits and wood on site. Perfect for a relaxing stay. Highly recommend. Will definitely return when down this way again.
