Our place is 187 acres of natural Snowy Mountains. There are two dams, natural ground springs and plenty of species of gumtrees. It is home to native animals big and small and many natural features and views. Close by you can enjoy the Eucumbene dam 10 minutes to the North with great Trout fishing and Jindabyne 25 minutes to the South. Kosciousko National Park is located to the West with several access points. Sitting at an elevation of 1270m above sea level it gets blanketed in snow in winter and beautiful sun in summer.This camp is 100% Snowy Mountain bliss. Back to basics will let you get in your natural element. There is no power or showers but there is a beautiful fresh water dam with a jetty to jump off. The only noises you here will be from nature! Sitting at an elevation of 1270m above sea level you have a high chance of snow in the winter and in summer it is a great base for any hiking, fishing or exploring you want to do throughout Kosciousko National Park or the Snowy Monaro. We are totally pet friendly but would like your animals to respect the native wildlife. Camp fires are allowed between April and October. Guests will have access to a flush toilet throughout their stay and bush shack which has been made from the timber on the property. There is phone service at the property with both Telstra and Optus. Just down the road is the historical Rocky Plain School (1883) that you can borrow books from at the community library.

Beautiful location. My friend and I were the only people staying, as far as I could tell. The weather was unfortunately not on our side, however the hut beside the dam provided excellent shelter for us as it had a table and a couple of benches. The toilet on the far side was out of the way (a good thing) and clean. It was a beautiful spot to camp, we really enjoyed it.

Lots of space & Aussie animals!
We loved this Hipcamp! Plenty of space, wildlife and beautiful Australian native plants. We woke each morning to sheep and kangaroos nearby. There is so much to explore and we were fascinated by the wombat burrows! It was a really quiet space to call home for a couple of days.

Lovely spot
Lovely spot. Just be sure to check wind conditions. Very exposed. Summer camping would be exceptional!

Relaxed Camping at it's Best!
We absolutely loved our stay at Jayne's. Lovely open spaces to explore, plenty of firewood available and our dogs loved playing in the patches of snow! Unfortunately we could only stay for the one night but we'll be back for sure!

Perfect one day, excellent the next
It was an excellent area to camp with our caravans, plenty of space to park that you weren't on top of each other's camp, we were lucky enough to have a snowfall which transformed the land into a wonder land, thanks for an excellent holiday Jayne.

Huge property, nice to have a toilet. A really lovely bit of land with lots of trees and sheep! Would definitely recommend staying here, only 30 mins from Jindabyne.
