We absolutely loved our stay at Steve's farm. Camping directly at the creek was magical. The host family welcomed us with a big smile. We had a wonderful time at this beautiful farm and will be back one day. Thanks Steve and family for your special hospitality.

Such a peaceful spot! Surrounded by gum trees and the sound of water running by, many different frogs and birds made it such a beautiful place to recharge. Toilet well positioned and maintained. Close to Mt Barker for quick access to supplies. Excellent getaway from the city! We'll be back!

Weekend Trip to Pindari Park

Magnificent site overlooking the mighty Murray high on the clifftop. Had a lovely chat with Sue our host who had lots to share with us about the farm and her experiences. The sites are large and very well spaced so you don't have anyone close. Would highly recommend this place to anyone who doesn't have small kids as the cliff is a sheer drop.

Perched on top of a cliff with the most stunning views over the river and beyond, this camp site was exactly what we needed to sit back and relax. It has its own access road, it’s a good distance away from other sites and it has a few bushes in between you and the others, which increases your sense of privacy. Walking distance to Cadell and just a short drive to Morgan. And lastly, the hosts are lovely people who were very kind to us. Highly recommended.
