The Fern Glade

3 sites · RVs, Tents20 acres · Murrindindi, VIC
Nestled right beside the Murrundini River, all 3 campsites are beside the river, and well spaced apart for privacy and peace. Campsite 2 (site two) is shady, surrounded by tall swamp gums, black wood wattles and tree ferns. This spot is at its best from late spring through to autumn . Site One is a large flat area beside the river that is good all year round. It has fencing and gates, perfect to let dogs run free without going too far. Site 3 (Craig's flat), is a large open campsite, able to take more camper-vans/ tents with plenty of space. All sites have fire places. And there are plenty of fish for those that want to try their luck. The original home stead (built in 1876) burnt down in the 2009 black Saturday fires. There still remains many 150+ year old elms and other European trees near the toilet block, which are delightful in autumn. We have some fantastic views from the hill up and down the Murundindi Valley, especially at sunset. We're located only a few short km's from Wilhelmina Falls and Murundindi Scenic Reserve, you get the best part of the river, without the crowds. We are a short drive from Melbourne, and easy access to the townships of Yea and Yarra Glen for supplies if you need them. Amazing, abundant & rare bird life to enjoy and photograph.

This property is part of a larger Family Estate and is surrounded by the National Park affording excellent access to the Grampians Peaks Trail, numerous walks and bike rides around the property and a well maintained Nature Trail which is great for strolls during day or to visit the possums, sugar gliders and nocturnal animals in the evening. Reserviour Creek runs just behind the camping area which runs from Spring until Autumn creating a peaceful place to relax and enjoy. The rustic toilet and shower block are the original workers' buildings but have been completely upgraded to immaculate modern, fully tiled facilities which boast large 1.2m showers and new well appointed toilets. These are a short 400m walk/ride from the campsites along a clearly marked track. Other things to note: *Due to being surrounded by the National Park, you may find that some mobile network coverage is a bit patchy but Telstra generally has good connectivity. Convenient to access, you are only 20 mins from bustling Ararat which is the largest town in the region and has an abundance of eateries and supermarkets. We are 40 mins from Halls Gap, the hub of the Grampians and 6 minutes to the Moyston General Store Cafe which has a reputation for exceptional coffee!

Magic Mountain

2 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents40 acres · Humevale, VIC
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.

Mountain Life Retreat

4 sites · Tents60 acres · Mount Best, VIC
Heaven on Earth. We must be the luckiest people alive to have somehow become the owners of this property which is only a short drive from the breathtaking Wilsons Promontory. The property has an abundance of temperate rainforest including massive gum trees, 6m tall tree ferns, permanent spring fed creeks, our own lake and more Australian wildlife than most zoos*. Living here, we feel like we're on holiday every day of the year. Camping sites are situated at the back of the property just a quick 5-minute walk from the car park. We'll transport your gear to your campsite so you can get set up quickly and start exploring the property or just kick back and relax. The three campsites are positioned so that you won't hear a sound from any other campers on the property. You will feel like you've got the whole place to yourself. And even though the campsites are isolated you'll still enjoy the convenience of clean regular flushing toilet facilities. But unlike any toilet you'll have used before, you'll get to enjoy a our unique loo with a view which is situated right amongst the rainforest looking out over the magestic tree ferns! Whether you intend to simply relax and listen to all the birdlife, grab a few drinks and head up to the viewing deck to watch the sunset, or put on your hiking boots and explore the rainforest, whatever you do, you will truly get back to nature. As one guest said, "I literally wanted to hug a tree". So what are you waiting for, come and hug one of our trees**. * comparison made with zoos that don't have many Australian animals ** please ensure you have the tree's consent first ;)

Glenmaye Farm

7 sites · RVs, Tents700 acres · Balmattum, VIC
Glenmaye Farm is a family run oasis in the foothills of the Strathbogie Ranges. Running alongside the headwaters of the Faithfulls Creek, dotted with rocky outcrops, steep gullies and world class waterfalls over ancient rock formations.  The land is wild and there is something to see around every corner and over every rise. Views for days from up the top, and spots along the creek that you could relax in for hours on a warm sunny afternoon. An abundance of wildlife to delight the senses, from Eagles to Echidnas and everything in between.  If you are looking to completely immerse yourself in nature, discover stunning scenery and feel like you are the only people on earth then Glenmaye Farm is for you.  Glenmaye is an easy 15km drive off the Hume Freeway, out of Euroa. 2 hours North of Melbourne. When purchased in early 2000’s this farm was like many others in this region, completely over used, covered in weeds and not much more, farmed conventionally with no regard for the fragility of this land compared to flat land down stream. So we stopped farming sheep, converted to cattle and loosely practice regenerative agriculture techniques. Whilst still a work in progress, many of the native trees and grasses are slowly coming back and while weeds are still a problem they are adding back to the soil and allowing the natives some protection to get established. We have a range of different camping options available, with hopefully more to come as we go along. At present our facilities are basic however we will be investing in some facility options as soon as we can so watch this space. We have firewood available to purchase and often have a surplus of produce available to share so please ask. We look forward to meeting you and sharing this little paradise with you soon.
