Elm Grove Sanctuary provides the perfect environment for a digital detox. Visitors are welcome for family holidays, wedding receptions, and retreats, with cabins and camping options Set in the picturesque Goobarragandra Valley, 28 kms east of Tumut, we are surrounded by Kosciusko National Park with spectacular mountain scenery. There's plenty to do while visiting: fishing, bushwalking, swimming, stargazing, picnics, campfires or just sitting under an Elm tree with a book. We have Campsites by the river with a simple camp kitchen and basic toilets available. These sites have easy 2WD access and space to turn a caravan around. We have dogs, and are a Dog friendly campsite. (We also have chickens, so if you bring a dog, please make sure that it is going to be friends with our chickens, or kept on a leash.) There is no mobile reception, so you will not be disturbed by the outside world when you visit paradise.Welcome to Elm Grove Sanctuary community. We are a gathering of like-minded families living simple rural life in community. We love the land and aim to be as self-sufficient and organic as possible.  We have campsites available at our picnic grounds by the banks of the Goobarragandra River. If you're looking for a digital detox or a secluded getaway then this slice of paradise might be just the place for a weekend away.  Enjoy swimming in the fountain of youth, the joining place of two rivers, the Peak and the Goobarragandra. It includes a BBQ area and a wood-fired pizza oven.  We have composting toilets (no shower), and we are dog friendly. We are a family friendly farm, wanting to share our land with other families.

Idyllic but Expensive.
Overall we had an enjoyable experience. Site was idyllic, Patrick was a gracious host, we had fun. But, from our current experience, the PerPerson expense for zero facilities was way over the mark. The same experience is available in the broad vicinity for zero dollars, whereas the caravan park in town charge 20% less for a riverside site with toilet, showers, electricity town water. So the value for money case is difficult to make. I probably wont go back, but, good luck to them.

Beautiful space
Such a beautiful spot in the hills. We were very lucky to have the space to ourselves for the weekend. The dogs loved it as well.

It was my first time camping and I was pretty nervous going into it but this site was incredible. Having the fresh water river to bathe in made such a difference and we really made good use of the field for games and activities. Patrick was also super helpful, lending us a fire pit and bringing us firewood.
