Misty Mountain Wildlife Refuge is a 330 acre farm which provides sanctuary to kangaroos, wallabies, wombats, echidnas and many bird species including their habitats. There are Alpacas and Sheep, Kangaroos, Wombats, Kookaburras, Echidnas and many other animals that enjoy this property. The land has 80 acres of cleared grassland this side of the river, and for the adventurous and energetic you can rome the other 250 acres by crossing to the other side of the rive, there are large stands of rainforest and bushland, with 2.5 km of Brown Mountain Creek and its tributary meandering through it. There are some swimming holes and mini rapids; the crystal clear water flowing over the river rocks can be heard from most parts of the farm. The land comprises Little Brown Mountain and has 360 degree views of the surrounding mountains and farmland with wonderful cloud formations and mists contributing their mystery and beauty to the dramatic landscape. There is an orchard with trees producing several varieties of apple, stone fruit and citrus in abundance. A cottage garden produces various vegetables and herbs such as spinach, celery, potatoes, garlic, chives, lettuce, rocket, parsley, turmeric, peas, beans, tomato etc. Past bushfire damage to some trees in the cleared paddocks is evident however, many are recovering well and most provide photographers with interesting and dramatic subject matter. Due to the catastrophic events of the NSW bush fires in this area all camp fires must be kept responsibly safe and no unsafe camp fires will be tolerated. All Guests are required to have an acceptable camp toilet, no holes in the ground. All river access points are shared, be mindful of others. As dogs are welcome and even well behaved dogs will be dogs when it comes to their family, all guests are advised to make themselves known prior to going near another's camp site, then there is no surprises either way. May common sense prevail. Thank you for visiting the farm.

Very Nice
I stayed here for a very relaxing 3 weeks. The place was very quiet and the creek a lovely place to relax, wash and collect drinking water. I was so lucky to just get the end of the mandarin season at their orchard which has plenty of different fruits available.Bemboka is a lovely little town as was Bega. Ben, Paula and Joe were all lovely and I truly appreciate them having me for the time I was here. Definitely recommend!!

Host was very nice and accommodating. Our site was large, very private and the creek was just outside the gate. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Nice spot! The animals were friendly, the view of the mountain is awesome (it was misty as the name suggested) and the sites were well spaced out. Walked over to the orchard and that site looks equally as good.

Worth a go!!!
Good patch, would be great for families or a group of mates keen to have their own camp spot for a while, no neighbours.

Great camp site, very clean and well maintained. Host was very friendly and accommodating. Creek was low when we went but very clean and deep enough to cool down. Had some shade in the afternoon with the trees but would recommend taking extra shade for the middle of the day. Plenty of wood around the property for the fire pit. Lots of cute animals up on the hill (especially the goats). 5 minutes to local town, 35 mins to Bega. 45 to the beach. Thank you Ben for a very pleasant stay.

Goats
Only there a night but enjoyed it, especially hanging out with the alpacas, goats and many kangaroos. Host Paula (I think) was lovely.
