This is a campsite for those who want the best of both worlds, the serenity of the Australian Bush, but close to all the modern conveniences and holiday activities. Surrounded by the Hindmarsh Valley National Park and a working sheep farm, you’ll be sharing this campsite with the local kangaroos, and if you’re lucky, an echidna or two. There’s a creek running through, and vibrant bird life. Nearby is a beautiful bush-walk through the Mount Billy Conservation Park. Situated half way between Myponga and Victor Harbor, only 15 minutes to either, there are many activities available. Kayaking on the Myponga reservoir, or surfing, swimming and sun bathing at either Horseshoe Bay or Waitpinga. Urimbirra wildlife park is less than 10 minutes away, and around the corner is the Softfoot Alpaca Farm, with the on-site Swagman Restaurant. Also in Hindmarsh Valley is the lovely restaurant Lost Phoenix Farm. Over your stay, you will likely encounter our two dogs, Lola and Sherlock, who very much enjoy meeting our guests. Lola is particularly fond of children and loves to play fetch with them, whilst Sherlock will try charm you out of your sausages. Despite what he says, he is well fed at home. They are both good at giving high fives. If you would prefer not to see the dogs, please just let us know and we will keep them under strict supervision.Pitch your tent, or pull up your caravan and enjoy a campfire, season permitting. There are plenty of chatty sheep and cows in surrounding paddocks, and the kangaroos like to bounce past during the night. Wake up to the birds and golden sunrises. If you want to explore a little, gum boots are highly recommended. Please note, this property is a disused cattle farm, with hazardous relics of its past. There are some steep cliffs without guard rails, a deceptively deep water and a broken bridge, meaning children must be supervised at all times.

Our family loved our stay at Rocky Dale campsite! The campsite was really well kept, with plenty of green grass, a great fire pit and great views. Alyssia & Luke were super welcoming and friendly, as were their dogs Lola & Sherlock :) Our kids loved playing in the creek, visiting the chickens and the playful visits from Lola & Sherlock! It’s also directly next to the conservation park so plenty of kookaburras & kangaroos. Highly recommend.
