    One of the best places I have been
    Very nice free camp-site, with new well maintained toilets, green areas around. Nice roads to arrive there. Loved camping here
Magical place, can get crowded on weekends.

Should I book dates of stay? by Ray H.
It’s free camping. You can’t book by Alice K.
      How many sites are available here? We’ll just have a tent but we’re conscious it’s just after the new year and still during school holidays. We’ll be driving a long way and don’t want to find ourselves with nowhere to camp. Thanks

Tq stephen we r of 15 people wants to stay for the night is it permitted to stay over the night with the liquor happening by Praneeth C.
Yes you can stay overnight and take liquor. If you go during a weekend you just need to be there early as the best spots fill up quickly by Stephen B.
Tq stephen we will be plz one last question which is better Mt franklin reserve or firth park campground by Praneeth C.
I have never been to Firth park so I cannot comment on that. We have found my Franklin great because of the close proximity to Hepburn springs and Daylesford. We have always enjoyed our stay there and will definitely go back again by Stephen B.
Tq stephen by Praneeth C.
