Beautiful 8 acre property situated on the edge of the Craigbourne Dam, 2 minutes from the township of Colebrook and 50 minutes from the Hobart CBD. Our property offers are great getaway experience for any traveller. The Craigbourne Dam is a all year round recreational fishing ground and stocks many species of fish i.e. Atlantic Salmon, Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout to name a few. Our property is a pet friendly park but we do ask all patrons to be considerate of the surrounding farmland and live stock . As we are a fully self contained campground we do not provide power, toilets or showers. You'll need to have your own amenities and discard of any rubbish . Limit phone coverage but still enough to call/text Contained campfires permitted when restrictions aren't in place. Firewood for sale for a small fee (see Extras). IMPORTANT : Any guest that wish to fish the Craigbourne Dam will be asked to purchase a angling license for the duration of their stay .

Beautiful location on the Dam.
One of my favourite stays in Tasmania. The location was fantastic with beautiful sunsets. The friendly border collie's were a highlight. My dog had a great time playing with them. I wish I had stayed longer. I will definitely return in the future.

Camping with animals.
Only spent 1 relaxing night overlooking the water. It was a windy evening but we certainly enjoyed our stay. A few anglers enjoying themselves in and on the water. We will certainly go again. We only met Callum who was super chilled and very friendly. Close to Richmond to call into for Devonshire tea and a stroll.

The Paddock is absolutely beautiful, plenty of space for campers and caravans and scenic views over the dam. We loved watching the swans and the beautiful dogs were a plus and kept us company for our stay.

Nice outlook over the dam, nice and quiet, Callum and Natalie were friendly. We will go again, and the Dam is within walking distance for a fish.
