Clear Springs is a very special spot, offering sweeping views over rolling hills, and across to the ocean. King Island lighthouse is visible on clear nights, and there are koalas and wallabies in abundance. Whilst we require you to BYO toilet, we do have hot shower, woodfired hot-tub, power, water and phone reception. The site is all-weather access, and is just a 7-minutes drive to the Apollo Bay township. Once you catch your breath after initially taking in the sweeping, majestic ocean views, you can find a spot to pitch your tent or park your van. You drive in through a locked farm gate into the fenced camp area. There is not an abundance of flat area, so may not suit if you need large level space. We don't accept multiple bookings, so the space is all yours. You can choose from a few different spots with near-level ground (choose grass or gravel). The site is open to the amazing ocean views to the south yet the area is nestled among mature trees to give privacy and shelter. There are very few houses dotted around the area and not a single busy road within earshot. There is 240v mains power (BYO lead and plug into switchboard). And a tank with spring water (natural and untreated, we've been drinking it for years) and a pressure pump (BYO hoses as needed). There is an outdoor gas-heated shower. We also have a woodfired hot tub available for guests, BYO firewood. Our listing is intended for people looking for a private, tranquil and well-serviced camping area with several bonuses such as firewood, power, water, telstra reception, and a hot tub. And no other guests to worry about. It's much more than a patch of grass! But please BYO toilet - this is mandatory - and leave no trace to allow other people to enjoy the beauty of our property.

Note - if towing a medium-large caravan, it's essential you are comfortable manouvering in tight spaces. Also note the bitumen road has signs advising against caravans (presumably because turning around can require reversing into a driveway).

Amazing camp, beautiful views

16 ft pop-up camper

What an amazing camp, so handy to Apollo Bay and Lorne. The Otway National park is so close with amazing hikes. The Bathtub is an absolute treat and also the Hot tub. Waking up to the views and all the stars at night. Thanks so much for a great stay.

Our stay was amazing, beautiful views, easy access and all the instructions were thoughtfully communicated from the owner. Would definitely recommend this stay for anyone wanting an escape from the city with close proximity to the beach.

Quiet space with lots of nature

22 ft Class B

It was a very lovely stay! The view is something amazing, we even spotted lovely Koala in the trees and goats on other side of fence. The place is simple, but that is everything you need to disconnect from the busy world, it’s also very quiet and you won’t see any other human beings at all. I would add you need at least one bag of firewood to heat up the fire hot tub. So if you planning to have a fireplace, I would recommend bringing two bags of firewood to have enough for both. Highly recommend the Fire hot tub!
