We run an 800 acre beef & sheep property situated 9km from Tarana on the Famous Fish River. Our property is a mixture of pasture & bush, with various campsites situated either on the Fish River or secluded bush sites. There are numerous secluded sites and ample room for exploring the scrub, rocks and river. We move the campsites around depending on water levels and the size of the group booking. ******Access to all sites is 4WD only (not AWD),including your van and may require a river crossing. **** Access to the sites is at your own risk- Please assess the track prior to heading down if you are at all concerned camp up the top. It can be slippery if wet and it is quite steep. - This is bush camping and campers need to be fully self-contained (own toilet please) - NO DOGS or pets please, as this is a working farm and we have fox baits out - Campfires permitted when restrictions aren't in place - Campers may gather their own firewood onsite from fallen timber, It is sometimes handy to carry your own to get a fire going quickly when you arrive. - Please bring all your own drinking water (the river is available for back-up) - No Mobile phone service at the sites. Please consider alternatives for communication. (phone service is availible 2km east of the Gate (towards tarana) **Minimum 4 night stay For Easter long weekend and 3 nights for Long Weekends. Thank You :)**

Oakview offers a serene camping experience by the Fish River, appreciated for its peaceful surroundings and natural beauty. Campers consistently highlight the property's privacy, the river's appeal for swimming and fishing, and the abundance of wildlife. Sally and Bruce, the hosts, receive praise for their communication and helpfulness, enhancing the overall experience. However, one review noted the presence of other guests near the farmhouse, which slightly impacted the sense of seclusion.

Bush Serenity
Oakview - Bushcamp 2 was exactly as described and just what we wanted over Easter...Peace & Quiet. We didn't see another person till our last day, when Sally rode in on her horse to say g'day.

My Son and I spent 2 wonderful nights on the Fish River on this awesome property. Sally was awesome with directions to the property and the site. Access was relatively easy down to the river from the gate. We had complete privacy, did some fishing, had fun riding tubes on the river downstream and finished the day sitting around the fire. Would recommend to anyone looking for the same experience. Great for a family and enough space for a small group. Thank you Sally for opening up your property to us, we most definitely will be back!
