Camping at Mt Barney Lodge

Drive in, set up camp, and fall asleep under more stars than you've ever seen

Several acres of beautiful spacious campgrounds, right on the creek.

  • Grassed sites with creek frontage and a swimming hole

  • Ideal for families and groups of friends
  • A quiet, pet-free camp area

Exclusive Campsites (Pet Friendly)

Your own private patch of the mountain. Each of our three exclusive sites (Saddleback Ridge, Gillies Outlook and Cazaly) has room for a caravan or camper trailer or two, plus tents and swags, so the whole area is yours to share with your group, or keep to yourself.

  • Private sites, no neighbours sharing your space
  • Mountain views and your own fire ring
  • Dogs welcome
  • Generators allowed
  • Hot showers and toilets a short walk away down the hill.
Cazaly

Cazaly

Escape up there to Cazaly, to a flat, grassy shaded site that offers incredible views over Mt Barney and the peaceful surrounding bushland. Includes water tap and cute brassier for 'round the fire’ experiences.

Suitable for up to 6 guests. Ideal configuration would be one caravan/campervan/camper trailer with room for up to 4 tents or swags.

Gillies Outlook

Gillies Outlook

A unique grassy and peaceful campsite at the top of a steep hill, with direct views to the volcanic plug of Mt Gillies. Includes a spacious shelter shed with a picnic table, fire-ring and potable drinking water.

Perfect for tents, swags, camper trailers and lightweight caravans. We suggest bringing your own toilet and shower setup, as amenities are located approx 500 metres  down the hill.

Saddleback Ridge

Saddleback Ridge

With two spacious, flat grassy levels, there’s room for couple of camper trailers or vans and multiple tents or swags. You’ll also have a fire ring for cozy evenings under the stars, a picnic table for relaxed meals, and access to potable drinking water. The amenities are a short walk away. This unique site offers the best views of Mt Barney, and some amazing stargazing opportunities on a clear night.
