I havent been there but as noone has answered I checked wikicamps and its got good reviews as a basic park run by a committee of management. Good for grey nomads. No permanents.

I have not stayed there, but driven past plenty of times. It's right on the banks of kiewa river and from what I've heard it has clean amenities and a caretaker. Off season (holiday) you might even have it to yourself. There is plenty to do and see in the area. Mt beauty, Falls Creek, Mt Hotham, Yackandanda, Mt Buffalo, and the wine areas.

It's a pretty ordinary spot IMO.

For something prettier and within a short walk of down town Mt Beauty take a look at the Mt B. Holiday Centre.

Its an easy walk from this park to Ceccanti's winery just up the road, adds to the appeal I reckon.

Great Reds.

The highest altitude reds in Australia.

I went mad and bought 12 dozen when I went there.

Lovely couple too.

Yeah I did got a little over the top Bob.

4 years down the track I still have half left. But the wine is quite special. I like the lighter Italian style and this wine is mainly made for export to Italy. There are only a hand full of shops where you can get it in Melbourne.

In a very rare piece of marketing, they don't sell it at the cellar door for retail price, they sell it for the price they get off wholesalers. Hence I got wine that was $50 a bottle in Melbourne for $16.

I'm drinking beautiful 2004 and 2005 reds that cost me $16ea. so I'm not too upset about my splurge.
