Well worth the trip!
I booked this for my husband and son, they absolutely loved it! Their camp was next to the beautiful koalas, a nice campfire area and everything they needed. Will definitely do a family trip there next season. Just hearing the excitement in my son’s voice was worth the trip.

Mikkira Station - Koalas galore
The natural beauty and history of the property is well preserved and well kept. Helen communicates promptly and effectively sharing lots of knowledge about the koalas and the local area. Directions are easy to follow. The camp area is yours to choose where you camp with some pre set areas out of the wind and the addition of fire pits being available kept us warm.

Absolutely stunning! The koalas were so close, there is a historic homestead & the toilet & shower were very clean. Would definitely come back & will be recommending it to all our friends in WA 😁

We loved camping here so much! Make sure you add on Helen’s tour it will give you such a deeper understanding and appreciation of the property and the wildlife. Helen tells the story of this land and the Koalas with passion and good humour. We saw so many koalas the kids lost count. This should be on the ‘must do’ list for every family.
