Brenda is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

My property is just under 4 acres, with a dam and a small orchard area. It's a small piece of paradise just 7km out of Beaufort, and conveniently situated between the Western Highway and the Sunraysia Highway. The campsite is located at the far end of the property, and borders the Waterloo Bushland Reserve and Reservoir, with plenty of options for bushwalking. Waterloo was formerly an old gold mining town and now attracts gold detectors. The property is on a slight rise and the views over the farmland and beyond are beautiful. It is an ideal spot for people passing through to pull up for the night, or spend a day or two relaxing in peaceful country. Campers need to be fully self-contained. I do however have drinking water available. You are welcome to have a campfire weather permitting. Kangaroos come down in the evening to feed, and I also have several sheep on the property, so whilst I allow pets, they must be kept under control. Beaufort is a short drive away, where you'll find essentials including a supermarket, chemist, cafes, op shops and hotels. The house is only minutes from the campsite but your privacy is assured and I am certainly available to assist you if needed.

We have just spent another awesome long weekend at Brenda's and had a great time. We were also there 2 weeks earlier and had no hesitation in visiting again so soon. So peaceful.

Brenda was an awesome and an inspiring lady. The views were magic and we met several of the locals and got the great sense of community. We have already rebooked a visit. Did I mention the serenity.

Peaceful Rest Spot

Beautiful cleared areas for camping but still close to excellent bush. Great for just watching the wildlife and world go by.

Thank you so much Brenda, an amazing host, warm and friendly with an outstanding property. This is my first "HipCamp" experience and I can only describe your place as a gem, extremely peaceful, adjacent to the forest, amazing amount of birdlife, neighbouring sheep, goats, horses, etc, etc.. Entertaining just watching the local kangaroo behaviour while having a cuppa at the camp-site. I would have liked to stay longer but will return in a few weeks. P.S...A big "plus" was having potable water available for guests. Highly recommended!

Spent our 2024 easter weekend at brendas place with our 2 young children, perfect location with Beaufort only 10 minutes away, lots of privacy and phone reception, we had the option to shut the gates so our kids had a bit of freedom running around, enjoyed watching the sheep and kangaroos, brenda was very friendly and my girls loved her doggy, bring a extra blanket if your in a tent as the mornings are chilly. Lovley walking track next to the property to explore
