Private flat clearing on the mountain ridge with bush, mountain and water views. Only one camp site on our 81 acres. Bush walking tracks. Dogs welcome! Plenty of friendly wildlife including birds, wedgetail eagles, kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, goannas, bandicoots, betongs, dingos and red deer. Two kayaks and red claw pots available for guests to use in Somerset Dam. Water access 2 mins away via prior arrangement through Camp Somerset. Or public day areas, The Spit and O'Sheas crossing around 10mins away. One part of the gravel driveway is steep, so a vehicle with some clearance is advised. ***All campers need to be self sufficient with toilet and shower. Dump point in nearby town.*** (Or portaloo available to hire via extras when you book) Fire pit available and fire wood available for a $20 fee with your booking request. A pile will be delivered to your camp site, which is more than enough for 1 or 2 nights.Hilltop views see property description. Water can be seen through the trees. Flat grassy area. Access via gravel driveway. Only camp site on our property. Our sheds and accommodation are 500m away and can not be seen at all. See owner for kayak and red claw pots for guest use.

Poppy's camp
Had a great couple of nights stay near at Poppy's near Somerset. Nice flat private campsite with fire ring and plenty of firewood. Wallabies, koalas and deer all sighted in and around camp and were all friendly. Great sunrise and sunset from camp and heaps of stars to see at nightime. Plenty of trails in national parks and access to the lake close by. If you're travelling with a dog be aware there may not be many places that are dog friendly being national parks. The All Trails app is great for searching hikes and activities and filtering dog friendly options. We found a great trail to go for a walk with our dog up near Deer Reserve State Forest which was dog friendly and all to ourselves.

Camping with my dog
We like the Bebe's place. It was very private and peaceful. Eddie welcomed us and let us view the top of the hill house that was being built for now. The scenery on top was beautiful and calm.
