Camping with Kangaroos
I loved stating there. The first think I saw while waking up in my swag was hips of Kangaroos jumping. I kept this beautiful image in my memory. It was such a nice experience. Ken, the owner, welcomed me and gave me food to feed the Kangaroos. He was very friendly. There isn't any camping facilities (toilet/shower/electricity etc) so make sure you bring everything with you. It s a real camping experience in Australia. Not far from Jurien bay and Lesueur National Park.

The ridge
We really enjoyed our stay with friends at Loveland. Great spot for two vans under/near the trees. The flies were a bit friendly during the day though.

The perfect off grid stay!
Such a wonderful stay! Ken personally greeted us upon arrival and the kids got to feed the kangaroos whilst he told us all about the property and sanctuary. We were then showed to our location nicknamed ‘Middle Earth’ and set up camp surrounded by nothing but rolling fields and huge trees. We enjoyed every minute of our off grid stay with the highlight being sitting around our campfire and marveling at the many many stars! With Jurien Bay only a short drive away this camp was the perfect stop on our NW adventure. We will definitely be staying again!

Middle Earth
Worth a visit.
Wonderful place to stay. Wish we could stay longer. Would hope to call again. The care that is shown with the animals is obvious. Such a happy place.

Camping with kangaroos
Loveland was easy to find and a great road for 2wd. The drive in is pretty. Allan looked after us and introduced the Roos who were very welcoming. He gave some feed and we hand feed them. We had a fairly level, protected spot. It’s only a short drive from Loveland in to Jurien Bay

An Unforgettable Stay
Our recent camping trip to Loveland Kangaroo Sanctuary was an extraordinary experience that exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were immersed in the natural beauty and tranquility of the sanctuary, and the close encounters with the kangaroos made it an absolutely magical getaway. One of the highlights of our stay was waking up to the sight of kangaroos casually hopping around our campsite. Seeing these incredible creatures up close was not only refreshing but also a rare and special experience that we’ll treasure forever. The kids were absolutely thrilled! They loved watching the kangaroos and learning about them, making this a perfect spot for families. It's a fantastic opportunity for children to connect with nature and wildlife in a safe and engaging environment. The sanctuary itself is well-maintained, and the atmosphere is peaceful, making it an ideal location for anyone looking to unwind and reconnect with nature. The facilities were clean, and everything we needed was readily available, ensuring a comfortable stay. A big shoutout to Allen, the caretaker, who was nothing short of amazing. He was incredibly friendly, super helpful, and always available to assist us with anything we needed. His knowledge and passion for the sanctuary and its residents really enhanced our experience, and he made sure we felt right at home from the moment we arrived. Overall, our time at Loveland Kangaroo Sanctuary was truly amazing.
