It's such a lovely clearing right by the river which is so peaceful and feels remote but with all the advantages of being close to town. Kids and dogs loved the safe open spaces while we all enjoyed the serenity. Peter and Paul were so easy to deal with and even checked on us to see if we needed water. Now that's service.

So close to Wangaratta main town centre with easy access to large sites. Great fishing spots and the kids enjoyed floating down the river on floating rings.

King of the North the Ovens River
Great spot close to town.
Great large area nice and quiet and away from the others right next tot he River. Not recomenended for small children as the current was quite strong but great spot to swim for adults. Clean, clear and lovely. The sand bank is actually across from the site and in accesable so dont expect that as a nice spotr to sjunbathe on...its all grass ( which is fine) on th camp site. Tons of fure wood and even a Fig tree.

Beautiful Camp Ovens
Awesome camp spot. Had the whole property to ourselves. Peter was great during we week before as the river was up and gave some options incase we couldn't get to the booked site. Would definitely be booking this camp again.

Serene and relaxing by the river, and only a short walk to town. Gallery, coffee, wine!
