Sherwood River Camp

Sherwood River Camp is a riverfront bush camping ground near Latrobe, listed through Hipcamp. It is a self-contained camping and caravanning spot on a working farm, and dogs are welcome, which makes it a straightforward pick if you want to camp by the water with the dog along.

The pet policy. Pets are welcomed but must be kept under control. This is a working farm, so a dog needs to be well-behaved and reliable around livestock; a lead is the safe default whenever stock could be nearby. No specific pet fee or size limit is published, so confirm the details with the host when you book. The site cost is around $10 per person per night.

The place. Expect riverfront camping with river access, swimming, walking trails, and campfires permitted. It is genuinely basic: no toilets and no power, so you need to be fully self-contained and pack in what you need, including drinking water for you and the dog.

Location and nearby. It sits near Latrobe with the Mersey River and the wider dog-friendly area within reach. For an on-leash riverside walk nearby, Warrawee Conservation Area allows dogs on the Shale Road section, and Thompsons Park in town is an off-leash run.

Before you book. Confirm the current pet conditions and any fee with the host, and come prepared to be self-sufficient, there are no facilities on site. Best suited to campers comfortable with a rustic, off-grid stay.
