A beautiful tranquil camping location on a picturesque crater lake in the south West of Victoria. A working farm you will be close to nature... cows, sheep, trees, birds even koalas! Lake Keilambete is surrounded by farm land so this is the only way to experience this salt lake...no fish but you can float your cares away!! Come and enjoy an amazing location!Site is a 1 acre fenced site on the shores of Lake Keilambete, a volcanic salt crater lake. Amenities on site include water, hot showers and flushing toilet...but all tank water so be water wise! Jetty onsite and a dip in the healing properties of the lake will make you feel amazing! Sunrise and sunset view free of charge. Open to the elements remember one day can be still and calm...others are wild and windy! But an amazing place and the only place to experience it 🙏

Faraway offered a secluded spot to pitch our tent, a great utility shed (shower, toilet, kitchenette), fire pit, and salt lake for a bracing and restorative swim. Bruce is a welcoming and amiable host – having led us to the campsite (well away from the farm house), and replenished the kindling for the fire, he left us in total privacy. Really beautiful place to stop on a meandering drive through SW Victoria.

What a magical spot! Bruce is very lovely and accommodating. Big spot to spread out, and the fire pit was amazing. Would definitely stay again!

Awesome time!
We loved it at Faraway Lodge. The view was amazing and the kids loved the lake. Star gazing was top notch. Our host Bruce was easy going and very accommodating. Facilities made it easy at camp and there was an epic fire pit. Can’t wait to come back.

Idealic private little getaway
This camp site exceeded all our expectations! The lake view was breathtaking, providing a serene backdrop that made our stay truly relaxing. The privacy was a huge plus and main reason we decided to book this site; we had no interactions with anyone else besides the lovely host at check in on the first day which allowed for a peaceful getaway. The camp site was massive, could definitely fit several tents. It was perfect for my dogs to roam freely and explore. We appreciated the occasional visits from cows, which added a charming rural touch to the experience. The facilities were impressive for a camping site, featuring a small cabin equipped with a hot shower, toilet, kitchen sink, and solar electricity. It made for a comfortable stay while still enjoying the great outdoors. The scenic pier was the cherry on top, offering a perfect spot to soak in the views. Overall, this camping site is a hidden gem for anyone looking for a private and secluded escape into nature while still enjoying some modern conveniences. Highly recommended!

We loved our stay at Bruce's campsite. We had a beautiful spot by the lake. Bruce kindly directed us to the safest way to the site.

Amazing place to stay
We loved our stay at Faraway Lodge, a beautifully secluded, fully fenced space right on the bank of Lake Keilambete. We were lucky enough to have clear nights and the stars were just amazing. We also loved the amenities shack. Nothing beats a proper toilet and it was probably one of the best camp showers I've ever had. Honestly couldn't recommend Faraway Lodge any higher. Thanks Bruce, you've done well and were a breeze to deal with. Thanks Sam
