Private sites
100% of recent Hipcampers say the sites felt private.
This property is located at the base of Mount Richmond, just 15 minutes from Portland. Bridgwater lakes is just down the road. And Bridgwater bay about 10 km from camp.  We have grassy site available with plenty of shade for self contained campers. We often have Kangaroos and Koalas along with plenty of other wildlife on the property so keep an eye out and make the most of a great wildlife watching opportunity. There are a number of water holes on the property the wildlife like to enjoy. The property borders a section of the Great South West Walk and you can easily get onto the track from here. This walk has some stunning scenery and is a great spot to enjoy this part of the coastline, all from a comfortable base back at camp. Campfires are permitted in the fire pit provided pending there is no restrictions in place. Pets are welcome but please clean up after them and ensure they respect the wildlife in the area.  We look forward to welcoming you to Shaddy gums.

Camp 1 under the gums
We enjoyed complete peace in a natural environment. There was a nearby walk & Brendon was thoughtful enough to check we had enough firewood for an additional day we decided to stay. I’m happy to recommend ! John

Bush camp favourite
If you love bush camping, you’ll love Shaddy Gums. Birds, koalas, roos, privacy and ideally situated 15 mins from both Portland and cape bridgewater. A mere 400m or so from the terrigal camp on the GSWW. And Brendon was super helpful with info and firewood. Highly recommend.

Wow
I was greeted by an echidna and a spoon bill on arrival to this lovely spot. An easy drive in for 2WD. Saw a kangaroo and koala on the way out. A really lovely spot. Optus coverage was good.

Lots of wildlife
Brendan was lovely and supplied firewood just after we arrived. The directions were spot on. Campsite 2 was secluded and tidy. As soon as we arrived we saw emus and kangaroos. We highly recommend this Hipcamp.
