What a fantastic place. This Caravan Park is absolutely spotless and extremely well maintained. Fiona and Dave are grouse and very helpful and did the utmost to make our stay a good one. The powered site we had was in a very convenient position with tremendous views all round. We had such a great time and will definitely be back. Well done Fiona and Dave, excellent!

I'd like to commend Dave and his partner at Montana on the McAllister for the outstanding work he is putting in to make campers such as myself, (my dog) and my friends who were with me feel welcome and secure. We spent 2 nights at a powered camping site and used the spotlessly cleen facilities as well as the very efficient fire pits put to our disposal. I would like to add a special mention to the fact that Dave allowed me very kindly to use his office wifi as I needed to contact a student online for tutoring purposes.

We (wife with 1doggo) have just spent our 1st Easter away for 15 years and we are are so happy we chose this campground. The ammenities were kept incredibly clean and were constantly being attended to by Dave and Fiona who were always present to ensure that all were comfortable. This is an incredibly well presented and well run campground that ticks all the boxes for a relaxing time away from the city. Oh, and there is also an amazing little river that winds its way through the campground as well and the kids just loved floating from start to finish. We loved our stay and will certainly be back.

Cheers from juniors oldies 😇👍

Montana on the Macalister is a picturesque campground that runs along the banks of the Macalister River, with easy access for swimming, fishing and relaxing in the water. Located in central Gippsland – north of Glenmaggie and just south of Licola – giving easy access to the Victorian high country for those wanting to explore, or a short drive through to Heyfield, Maffra, and Traralgon to one of the many local attractions.

The campground is ideally suited for individual families looking for a quiet, clean, relaxing place to camp on a powered site and with 14 acres of lawn along 500 metres of river frontage, those who do not need power will find plenty of space and still have easy access to the amenities. Facilities include showers, toilets, hot water, drinking water. We do not have a camp kitchen or barbecues.

Larger clubs and groups are also welcome at any time and are able to book a section of the grounds or the complete campground in off peak times. Of course, conditions do apply and advanced bookings are essential.

Montana on the Macalister is an affordable place to camp. On the main holidays, numbers are limited to enable families to enjoy time out from the crowds, so the kids can play in a safe and friendly environment.

Montana is a pet friendly park all year round, not just in the off peak times, although the number of pets may be limited in busy times.
