Welcome to BIG4 Ingenia Holidays Inverloch. You’ll find us located on Anderson Inlet, close to nearby natural attractions of Phillip Island and Wilson’s Promontory, a short 90 minutes’ drive from Melbourne’s CBD.
No matter which site you choose, you’ll have access to the park’s resort features which include everything from an indoor heated pool, BBQ to playground facilities to name a few.
Spend your days exploring the seaside village of Inverloch, which is nestled at the mouth of Anderson Inlet, a protected bay where the Tarwin River enters the Bass Strait. If the Victorian weather plays nice for your visit, swim at the region’s turquoise beaches or enjoy a picnic along its foreshore.
For those partial to a scenic drive, don’t miss the 12-kilometre scenic Bunurong Coastal Drive from Inverloch to Cape Paterson, hugging the Bunurong Marine Park. Said to be a ‘mini version of the Great Ocean Road’, you’re in for a road trip pretty enough to land itself in a car commercial – perfect to keep up your sleeve for a free family day out during your stay.

As we are so family orientated we wish that all campers have a relaxing experience and respect other campers with noise restrictions and have no music on our farm after 11.00pm.
We have a few spots around the farm that you can set up.

Rancho Nirvana is a fantastic spot for a relaxing camping experience. Marc is a wonderful host and Murray the dog was a most welcome guest during our stay. Amenities are excellent/ as advertised. We didn’t use the pool but others took advantage during some very hot weather. Great location, close enough for coastal excursions etc. A great stay.

Marc is a great host and keeps his property in perfect appearance. His dog Murray is very friendly and the chickens and geese roam around freely and kept our children and grand children entertained. The swimming pool and trampoline was appreciated as well. We would definitely return.

Marc’s little piece of serenity was just what we needed as a family coming together after Christmas. The boys loved the chickens and Murray was just a delight, making himself at home in our camp.
Nothing was too much trouble for Marc.

There’s a reason why this host gets so many good reviews. Steve was an absolutely fantastic Hipcamp host. The place was awesome, super quiet, and very family-friendly. Steve is incredibly kind and welcoming, and he really took great care of us during our stay. The location is an excellent base for exploring the surrounding areas and the Great Ocean Road. We had a wonderful time and would 100% recommend staying here!

A fantastic and very quiet site. Soooo much better than the packed seaside camps.
Steve was a great host ensuring we had power and understood the facilities available.
Although we were in a motorhome Steve allowed us to use the ‘ man cave ‘ apartment so we could watch the cricket and use the shower too - thanks.
Overall a great spot amongst the hills and valleys with good views.
Thanks to Steve for a great night.

Small basic caravan park close to the Mornington peninsula, mainly permanent residents but they were quiet and friendly, safe spot with a boom gate and high fences, but it's a little grubby and unkept, the dump point is an old outdoor loo that is absolutely filthy but it works, the pool needed a good clean but the weather was to cold to bother with it.
Close to all shops and Frankston, the IGA is a 5 minute walk with a bakery and other takeaways also a good little restaurant called the fat chef that brew their own beers is well worth a visit.
We would stay again but don't expect 5 star but close to a 4 😅
