Tarcool is set on 200 pristine acres, on the Avon River, bordering the Hendricks State Forest. We offer a lovely open grassy area for self-contained campers. The land is level, access is good, and it's just 50 metres from the riverbank, with access to beautiful swimming holes. There are wonderful 4wd tracks ,motorbike and bushwalking tracks to and throughout the State forest, a stonesthrow from camp. Well-behaved dogs are welcome! We are just 22km to Newry, Maffra, and Briagolong - all with great local pubs! Close to Glenmaggie Weir, hour and half from Dargo or Licola. You can float down from Wombat Crossing down to your camp site or Canoeing or just sit back in a deck chair watching your campfire with a great book. Avon River is fastest rising and falling river in the Southern hemisphereA beautiful wide camping area, exclusive to one group only, just a stonesthrow from the river. The land is level, and access is good. A fantastic spot for families or groups looking for some time in pure nature! The river has several gentle shores easing into the water, and some beautiful swimming holes to cool off. Strictly not using ground as a toilet and leaving toilet paper on property. All campers must be self-sufficient, with their own camp toilet, and we kindly ask you take all waste with you when you leave. There is a dedicated firepit you are welcome to use when conditions allow - please adhere to local fire restrictions. And a wood fired BBQ Next door sells firewood and from 1st march designated areas across the river up Mt Angus track are opened please check DEECAs website which area as fines are very hefty. Do not take firewood off property unless told. Well-behaved dogs are welcome, and to be off-leash, but please ensure they do not hassle the cattle and sheep in the adjoining paddock, and are able to return to call.

Great spot, river was crystal clear and great for swimming. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting a flat camping spot with river access.

We recently had the privilege of staying at Tarcool Camping Site, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment we arrived, Christine, the host, made us feel incredibly welcome. She is warm, friendly, and truly goes the extra mile to ensure everyone is comfortable. The site itself is pure luxury in nature. The camping grounds are well-maintained, clean, and peaceful. The water is crystal clear, perfect for a refreshing swim. At night, the star viewing is breathtaking—one of the best we’ve ever seen. Lying back and taking in the night sky was a magical experience. If you’re looking for a comfortable and relaxing camping getaway with the best of nature and a touch of luxury, Tarcool Camping Site is the perfect spot. We can’t recommend it enough!

We had an amazing time here!! It was the perfect spot for a beginner swimmer like me, with calm, serene waters. The owner was incredibly kind and attentive, always checking in to make sure we were comfortable. There was a wood fire for a bonfire, and a BBQ pit was ready for us to use, making the experience even more enjoyable. It was truly a wonderful getaway.
