Free Camping Nagambie / Camping Victoria / Van Life Australia / Pet Friendly Camping Victoria

In this episode, we take our campervan to Major's Creek Reserve at Mitchellstown, only a few kilometers from Nagambie in Victoria.
This free campsite is on the edge of a river. There's good quality bitumen practically all the way, and then there's just a couple of kilometers of good quality gravel road to finish off. A few areas can get a little rutted in the wet but you can avoid these if your vehicle is not high clearance and you will find an expansive area with few obstructions so no worries maneuvering your van.
We purchased supplies in Nagambie and checked the town out.
We enjoy part-time van life (and now also camping with our Jimny), creating weekly episodes that are live at 5pm (AEST) on Sundays, and sharing our experiences on our travels with our cavoodle, Twyla. In our episodes we stay at free and paid campsites, showing our tips and tricks for making life on the road easier and more fun. Come join us on our adventures! If you’re into RVs, camper vans, caravans, swags, vans, a tent, and Jimny camping, our KZbin channel is for you!

Great vid guys. That bird was an Anhinga. You probably already looked it up but I messaged for those reading the comments. Regards, Mario.

[@kingdeanoadventures]

Thanks Mr Keenaz 😊 I really don’t know how we haven’t heard of these birds before but thank you so much for letting us know. Regards Deano

[@esthercelada8287]

Great steaks! I love broccoli too! Refreshing fans for this doggie suffering a little in that weather! A wonderful tour!

[@kingdeanoadventures]

It was amazing so delicious I don’t know about Adams little bit too cooked for me lol and yes, Twyla definitely loves her own fan. Thanks for checking out the episode Esthercelada8287

[@Bryker58]

That was definitely a snake bird. That did give me a good laugh though. Great video guys, keep it up

[@kingdeanoadventures]

Glad you enjoyed I really don’t understand how we didn’t know about this bird. But yes it definitely was funny now looking back at it. Thanks for the comment Bryker58 😊

[@loughman2629]

BIRD, a cormerant fishing in the river, and the two black birds were Water Hens. David Attenboroug has little to fear, from you two boys. His Nature programs, on TV are safe!!! But whatever you do, keep the videos coming, we love 'em!😂😂

[@bethjones2118]

Loved the episode as always. Great job guys xx

[@kingdeanoadventures]

Thanks Beth 😊

[@davidbrown2068]

I know it as a snake bird but it also know as The Australasian darter is a slim bird measuring 86-94 cm (34-37 in) long with a snakelike slender neck.

[@kingdeanoadventures]

I’m definitely going to look it up. How interesting thanks for that. I’ll let Adam know also. Regards Deano

[@elizabethlane880]

Right before the snake spotted I thought oh how nice to swim there I will go there and jump right in Then read the comments thank goodness it’s a bird haha Good spotting though Great adventures as always Definitely going to Suss out this spot !

[@kingdeanoadventures]

Lol 😂 we were so convinced it was a snake. But after listening to our subscribers, they have taught us. Yes, it was a bird. Adam and I have always said we are exposed at nothing in this situation, it shows lol 😂 Thanks for checking out the episode really appreciate it and deathly a good spot to check out.Elizabeth. Regards Deano

[@jimlofts5433]

great that you got your spot

[@kingdeanoadventures]

Thanks he was a very lovely spot and yes all the food we hand on this episode was delicious. Thanks for checking out the episode. Regards Deano nice nice unusual

[@pdean3522]

Definitely a medium rare steak, cooked on a rack over coals, yum. Im fairly certain that creature in the water was a cormorant (bird). We live close to the Murray and see them all the time. Love the episode,

[@kingdeanoadventures]

Okay, I’ll take your word for it. Little bit of excitement. Anyway I’m just glad we didn’t come across a snake next to a van that would freak me out. Thanks for your comment Pdean3522 . Hope you had a good long weekend. Regards Deano

[@TempyBuilds]

Aww bless her I love how little girl snuggles in with her dad to sleep, she's so sweet, how old is she ? and when is her birthday ? another great vid , sending good vibes from Wales

[@kingdeanoadventures]

Twyla is 3 years old and a birthday is in July.

[@TempyBuilds]

@@kingdeanoadventures A little birthday trip away for Twyla would be so cute , maybe to her favorite campsite and doggy park , with plenty of dog friendly things to do and puppy treats , here we have places to buy fresh baked dog treats , not sure if you have them over there , give her a big snuggle from us

[@davidbrown2068]

It was a Snake Bird in the water.

[@kingdeanoadventures]

Is that an actual thing are you just making that up? He kinda did look like some sort of snake bird thing lol. Thanks for checking out the episode Regards Deano

[@kimscotttemple]

Thanks again for another great episode. Nagambie is a great place to visit.

[@kingdeanoadventures]

Like I said to Carol, thinking of you guys and your son. Hope you guys have a nice week and thanks for all your support. Regards Deano

[@Creating22]

They were the best toasted sandwiches , looked delicious 😋 Beautiful place to camp with your doors open enjoying a morning coffee.

[@kingdeanoadventures]

We were filming for an up-and-coming episode in a few weeks showing people where they can camp before heading onto spirit of Tasmania. Thanks for your kind words and hope you keep enjoying our episode Steven. Regards Deano

[@caroltemple]

Another great episode. So much to see in Nagambie.

[@kingdeanoadventures]

Thanks Carol thinking of the family, especially your son. Have a good week and thanks for all your support as always. Deano

[@markjohns4826]

Great video again guys. Also a question have you been to the jayco factory tour. I am going to see if we can book in in the next couple of weeks. Wondered if it was worth it if anyone has been. 😊

[@kingdeanoadventures]

No Adam and I have never been that sounds very interesting. Can I ask where this is held?. Deano

[@markjohns4826]

@@kingdeanoadventures it is in Dandenong if you go on line and put in Jayco factory tours. Make sure you are on the Australian not American site. I am ringing today to find out if the date we want is available

[@markjohns4826]

@@kingdeanoadventuresok so Mark and I have booked the Tour for the 28th of Feb think tours are only available on Wednesday and Thursday. Just found out they have a regular factory tour and a motor home tour so we are going to do both if possible. You guys should see about coming and whether you could film an episode there. Would be great to catch up if possible. Not sure how far you guys are away though.

[@MICHELLE-gu2qc]

Wonderful episode. Looks like a nice little town. We are with Team Adam, no mooing no pink. We like cooking steak a method called Caveman steak which are directly on coal or using a flat rock. We brought a flat river rock from Bunnings used for cooking only. We heat the rock and cook on the rock. It takes awhile to heat the rock but it's delicious. The sunrise looked stunning. Adam missed out. Did you workout what that thing was in the river. Maybe Nagambie has its own Nessy. We always get sucked in on the side of the road fruit.

[@kingdeanoadventures]

Well well well, so you like your steak cremated like Adam that’s okay I won’t hold it against you. We didn’t find out what it was but my brother tells me there is a lot of eel anything so that’s what it was. Thanks again. Michelle and mum King at the episode. Regards Deano 😊

[@annefwee]

I have taken some rocks home from a beach (not sure if allowed but 😂) to use that to cook on fire. Absolutely delicious!

[@MICHELLE-gu2qc]

@@annefwee we won't dob on you. My Mum was very fond of plants snippings from the botanical gardens. 😳 yeah steak cooked on rock is really delicious.

[@annefwee]

@MICHELLE-gu2qc i wont tell on your mum😂 I did korean bbq with the rocks, so yummy! When I took them and sneaked in the day bag, my husband thought, is there anything I won't do 🤣

[@tiree76]

Toasted sandwiches looked amazing
