18 camp zones scattered along the southern shore of the Delatite Arm of Lake Eildon.
Zones are generally similar: situated between the road and lake high water mark, most slope, grassed (slashed) with scattered shade from exotics and plantings giving a park like setting.
About 30 designated camp sites per zone, some close to the road. Most have pit WCs over the road. All backed by pine plantations.
Rated 3.2/5
Attractive if lake full, otherwise little to do or look at.
