Peachtree Creek Campground
Updated 5 August 2026
The Project
The campground at Peachtree Creek is being upgraded to provide a better experience for visitors.
This project will improve the campground amenities by installing a new toilet block as well as other new facilities, including new barbecues for the campground area.
A new floating pontoon jetty and boat ramp will increase usability year-round as Tamboon Inlet water levels fluctuate with entrance openings.
Works include:
- Replacing the toilet with a new Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) compliant design.
- Replacing the bridge over Peachtree Creek that was destroyed by flood water and adding a new boardwalk to make this walk more accessible throughout the year.
- All signs within the reserve are being replaced to reflect current information.
Current update
Works at Peachtree Creek Campground are now complete and the campground has reopened to visitors.
The upgrade has delivered a range of improvements to make it safer, more accessible and more enjoyable for campers and day visitors. Completed works include:
- A new accessible toilet facility
- New barbecue facilities
- A floating pontoon jetty and boat ramp
- Improved walking access
- Upgraded campsite infrastructure
- New visitor signage
The former bridge over Peachtree Creek has also been replaced with a boardwalk to improve access throughout the year.
The two campground access roads have been resurfaced, walking tracks upgraded and campsite boundaries clearly defined with new bollards and boulders, helping to improve visitor safety and protect the surrounding environment.
Visitors can once again enjoy camping, boating, paddling, fishing and birdwatching from this popular gateway to Tamboon Inlet and Croajingolong National Park.
Parks Victoria thanks the local community, campground users and project partners for their patience and support throughout construction.
This project was delivered by Parks Victoria with funding support from the Victorian Government through the Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions (DJSIR) and the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action (DEECA), as well as a grant provided by the Victorian Trades Hall Council through the Tamboon Peachtree Association.
Project benefits
Visitors: The upgrades will make it safer and easier for a wide range of people to enjoy the campground.
Cultural heritage: These works will help ensure that cultural heritage and values are protected. Upgraded facilities and protections will improve opportunities for the Traditional Owner community to practice culture and connect to Country.
Environment: New toilet block and campground facilities will help minimise our impact on the environment.
Project funding
This project has been funded through the Victoria’s Great Outdoors program and with additional funding from the Victorian Government Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions.
Victoria’s Great Outdoors is $106.6 million investment by the Victorian Government into better campgrounds, walking trails, 4WD tracks and visitor facilities across Victoria’s parks and state forests.
Environmental and cultural heritage management
Environmental and cultural heritage permits and approvals were gained before works began on this project.
Putting safety first
Visitor safety is our number one priority when considering risk in parks.
While nature will always be unpredictable, our projects and maintenance works help minimise risks and help people explore the great outdoors safely.
Parks Victoria is responsible for managing and maintaining over 50,000 pieces of infrastructure across the state annually. We’re also delivering new projects to help visitors get into nature. These are thoroughly planned and prepared to keep people and projects separate – and safe. When visiting a park where projects are happening, especially during construction, it’s important that people follow the direction of signs, Parks Victoria staff and work crews, and stay out of fenced and restricted areas.
Who are we working with?
This project is being delivered in partnership between Parks Victoria, the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action, and the Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions.
We’re working together with Traditional Owners, local communities and key stakeholders groups to make sure we’re getting it right.

The camping area is temporarily closed while work is underway.
