Country Camping
A lovely peaceful country camping experience with a beautiful dam with ducks swimming, friendly cows & a horse named Soda Pop! What a relaxed vibe overlooking the countryside to the distant hills. The hot water bush shower was a treat after weeks on the road. We were lucky enough to have the whole place to ourselves.

What a spot!!!
What a spot! Ian and Tracey are amazing friendly hosts, the area was flat for our van, fire pit provided in the most peaceful setting. Our kids enjoyed looking at the cows, resident eagle and birds and playing on the logs on swing. We had such a lovely stay and have already recommend to friends.
