Peaceful

18 ft pop-up camper · With kids

Geoff was an incredible host going above and beyond for us. The kids loved kayaking, fishing and catching yabbies. If you enjoy camping with no one else around, amazing stars, the sounds of frogs croaking at night, and waking up to the chirping of countless birds then you will love it here.

Peaceful camping spot

Tent

Geoff is a great host and great/quick with communication! He gave us directions from town and then took us to the campsite. The site itself was peaceful and with lots of room. The lake is surrounded by lovely trees which provide some much needed shade. We took our SUPs out on the late and had a good paddle around and got to see some of the bird life around the area. Would 100% recommend this site.

The farm is great and Geoff is so nice! We are the only camper this time and we love the spot close to the lake. It’ll be better if we didn’t come on a rainy day, cause the road gat muddy. PS. Chat with Geoff for navigation before you go and not to use direction link on Hicamp (for now, hope Hicamp could correct it in the future). We’ve been navigated to another direction.

Nice spot

Tent · Group trip

Had a great time camping over Easter weekend on Geoffrey's property with friends. Plenty of space for all 8 of us to set up tents under shade with picnic tables and toilet right next to us. Pros: Quiet and spacious spot with green grass next to the lake. Got some nice sunrises/sunsets. Cons: The lake itself at the moment is very shallow (waist deep) and muddy which means that it's not great for swimming currently. We went in once but I wouldn't advise
