Warm fires, starry skies, seclusion! Great for caravans, camper trailers, tents and more! Nestled in the valley of a 1000 hills and on the land of the Taungurung people, this little patch of hilly heaven is home to a small family of farm animals, dog and their two owners. With its rugged natural beauty, amazing sunsets and starry skies, it was hard not to want to share its beauty with others. The property is the gateway to Murrindindi, has power and water for campers, a dam if you enjoy yabbying and perfect for intimate, small groups. We offer a flat campsite and ridge top campsite. Low gear and 4wd preferable during very wet months. NOTE: Campfires subject to fire restrictions at over summer, please message. Our secluded, flat campsite is surrounded by unspoilt bushland and is home to a multitude of native Australian animals. Our ridge-top campsite also features beautiful bush, and some amazing views. With over 50 acres of rugged hilly bushland, no neighbours in sight and tracks to explore, this is the perfect place for those who enjoy a challenging bush walk, privacy and a sky to watch the stars. Campers are required to be fully self contained with their own toilet/shower facilities and must take all waste with them on departure. Campfires are welcome but must be contained and campers must respect any restrictions in place at the time of their stay. Pets are welcome.

We loved camping at Bushy Ridge. The beautiful bushland either side of the grassy ridge is so vast and makes the space feel really private. The starry night sky was picturesque. The directions provided by Melissa were very helpful as Google Maps would have had us going elsewhere. The fact that we could have our dogs with us was so important and very much appreciated. They loved running around and finding sticks. We were also lucky in the morning to have been visited by some kangaroos. We quietly watched them from the mesh doorway of our tent as they grazed nearby. A wonderful relaxing experience at Bushy Ridge, highly recommend, thanks again.

Awesome night away at Bushy Ridge campsite! Have not seen that many stars in a while … communication was great and the property was beautiful. Would recommend, particularly because the site is dog friendly. Thanks Melissa and family

Nice and private, handy with the water and power onsite, nice that it’s not too far from Melbourne but far enough you feel like your away, thank you Melissa

Beautiful and tranquil place to camp. My kids and I had a great time around the fire and we particularly enjoyed feeding the Alpacas and goats. Definitely do it again some time in the future.
