We have 80 acres of farm, approximately 15 minutes from town. Our campsites are located in a paddock on our farm, perfect for off grid self contained campers. 

We are not far from The Blue Lake, The little blue is also close by, and is perfect for swimming in summer. The Umpherston Caves is literally just down the road, and is wonderful for a picnic, or on dusk feeding the possums. 

Sites are approx 20m x 20m, lined with trees, perfect for pitching a tent, parking a van, camper trailer, RV, or even a bus! You can even bring your boat! 

We are only 25 minutes away from Port MacDonnell, put your boat in, go fishing or just enjoy the beach. 

One van/tent per site (unless negotiated prior). Our sites are all located in a back paddock, it's quiet and peaceful. We have sites available to cater for RVs, vans and tents.

Must be self-contained (no facilities provided, must dispose of waste at approved dumpsites in town), take your rubbish with you; dogs are welcome if they are friendly and well behaved.

Toilets

Oakview

Beautiful quiet setting amongst oak trees. In the warmer months there’s a clean water dam for a freshen off, also for convenience is a conventional toilet for comfort and running water.

We welcome those who choose to stay to enjoy a campfire at your campsite and firewood is available for purchase, kids will have plenty of room to run around and explore and your fur babies are also welcome.

There is plenty of wildlife for spotting and our property has a very peaceful feel about it and is very humbling for the soul.
