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.

Scott was very helpful and the property was beautiful. We loved paddling around the dam and watching the fish jump, and there was plenty of space for us tent campers. We would go back if we were ever to visit Cradle Mountain again!

Fantastic campground, stunning environment. To think people are stacked up at Cradle Mountain when this is available. We loved it. Portacabins were spotless. This is our favourite site in Tassie so far

What a beautiful location and the perfect base to explore Cradle Mountain. So much wildlife, echidna, fish, native hens, black cockatoos. Gorgeous views over the dam to the forest beyond. The wheelbarrow of wood was great for our 3 night stay! Friendly, helpful hosts too. We loved our time there.
