    Camp and fish just a stonesthrow from one of Tasmania's most stunning natural landscapes, Cradle Mountain. Here you'll find nature at its best, just 10 minutes drive from the Cradle Mountain Visitors centre, the perfect base for discovering this magical area. Our campsites are on scenic, levelled areas overlooking the large dam and bushland, with grassed areas ideal for tents and camper-vans, and a portaloo a short walk away. The block is a natural timber and grassland block, with devils, quolls and wombats also residing here. We have one powered site available, and multiple unpowered sites. There is a lovely walking track around the dams periphery. Feed fish from the edge, spot platypus frolicking about, and keep your eye out for Peacocks wandering the property too. Whilst you are welcome to bring your dog with you, please ensure they don't harass the wildlife.

    Nice quiet clean camp area, a bit on the $$ side really, for what is there, but its close to the NP ... so ... captive crowd. Super welcoming host, well laid out sites overlooking 2 small lakes - and though it's only porta-loos, they are tidy and clean, with air freshner and hand soap.

    The water available was not potable and needed to be boiled. There were three demountable toilets which were used frequently. The entrance to the camp is unsightly and messy, although the area around the dam was pleasant enough. There were a lot of campers.

    Very hospitable host, great spot!! Only 10 mins drive outside Cradle mountain - so accessible. Platypus in the dam, little canoes & paddle boats for a great evening wind-down fun. The cleanest camp-site toilets I’ve ever seen!! Thanks Scott
