Log Cabin Ranch is a 'Victorian Tourism Industry Council' Accredited camp site, located in the majestic Dandenong Ranges - only 50 minutes from Melbournes CBD.

Log Cabin Ranch has been in operation since 1978 and has for over 20 years been owned by the Haley Family, who are committed and passionate about providing an enjoyable camping experience to all types of School Camps and Group Accommodation Retreats.

Log Cabin Ranch's staff are happy to assist you with your planning and organisation to develop a tailored Camping program, appropriate and relevant for your specific needs.

A full timetabled program can be organised and presented prior to camp by our Log Cabin Ranch Camp Coordinator, who comes with 25+ years of teaching experience.

We are also available to discuss various off-site activities during your stay, local to the Dandenong Ranges and Yarra Valley.

Log Cabin Ranch has many resident birds + animals including Walter the wandering Sheep, Fern the Deer and various Peacocks, Pheasants and other small birds. All form part of the unique Log Cabin Ranch experience for guests to enjoy.

In the local Monbulk and Dandenong Ranges area, we are lucky to regularly spot numerous birds such as cockatoos, kookaburras, wedge tailed eagles, crimson rosella, king parrots, blue wrens, and lyre birds.

Native local animals also include kangaroos, echidnas, wombats, possums and sugar gliders, just to name a few!
