Guests are welcome to walk around the property to find the koala who frequents but we ask you to stay on the designated walking tracks in the gumboots provided as this helps us control the spread of weeds. We ask that guests do not take any kindling from the property for lighting fires as this is a very important aspect of the soil regeneration. Amelia and Samuel are often working on projects around the that require power tools but try to be considerate of guests.

Lovely spot in amongst the paperbarks, away from the hustle of the coast but close enough to still be very accessible. Loved going to sleep listening to the frogs at night.
The campsite was great for a short weekend getaway. It was quiet and easily accessible. It was an easy drive from there to Wilsons Prom for a day trip and to Walkerville South for a swim. Thank you so much Amelia!
