Some spots available near trees, but generally it's an open natural area.

This spot was perfect for my needs! While I was not able to stay long enough to properly camp (early morning flight I had to catch), it still had the camping atmosphere that I hoped for. Tren was a super kind and hospitable host, who was also interested in getting to know me and learn about my travels.
I would definitely come back and stay again - and this time actually stay long enough to set up my tent.
Thank you for offering your spot and being so accommodating!
Pros: large area of land (we weren't the only ones there but felt like we were), Tren was helpful and easily contactable, property land was nice, good location close to hume for those travelling, greeted by his dog as packed up in the morning
Potential cons (depending what you're looking for): can hear noise of the hume, but not super loud. Price is comparable to an unpowered site at a caravan park (you lose out on facilities, but gain seclusion)
We only met Tren, the host briefly, but he seemed nice and welcoming. The site wasn't really suitable for our motorhome, but it was a great location for us, very close to our family and the town.
This was a lovely quiet spot. We set up near the dam and had a wonderful time slashing around in the water.
The view is lovely and calming and Trent is very friendly.
We will definitely come again.
Tren was an awesome very welcoming easy going Fella.
Great relaxing place to stay. Lots of choices to make camp plenty of bird life and visiting Wombats. Left very relaxed
This is everything you want for a night or two away. Tren the host was amazing and made the stay very enjoyable. Kids had a blast looking at the rabbits and playing fetch with the friendly dogs. Would highly recommend giving this property a try. We loved every minute of it.
