very busy at holiday weekends though.
Also quite a few horses taken there, and they attract flies.

Mansfield and surrounds

Sheepyard Flat near Mansfield
This popular natural camping spot is on the banks of the Howqua River. Reach Howqua Hills Historic Area from Mansfield via Merrijig and take the Howqua Track, a gravel road 3 kilometres past Merrijig on the Mount Buller Road. A 25 minute drive will bring you to Howqua Hills (Sheepyard Flat).

Stringybark Creek Camping Reserve near Mansfield
A pretty spot to stop when in Ned Kelly country, Stringybark Creek is 36 kilometres from Mansfield. To get there, take the Mansfield-Whitfield Road for 31 kilometres. Turn left down the Tatong-Tolmie Road and travel 9.5 kilometres to the campsite. Dogs are allowed at this campsite but must be kept under control.

Pineapple Flat near Mansfield
A pleasant spot located on the King River. To get there from Mansfield via Mt Stirling, follow the Circuit Road, past the Number 3 Road intersection. The King Basin Road leads to Pineapple Flat, on the banks of the King River. This is an excellent place for trout fishing and there is a large camping area with toilet facilities. Four-wheel drive access only.
Lovin' it!
