Company info

“We fell in love with the 18 acre block when we visited Porepunkah in November 2016.  We met with Mick and Julie Perkins, the previous owners, and knew we shared similar values. In March of 2017 we made it our home.  We couldn’t ask for a more picturesque, natural environment to bring up our 2 young kids. The great thing is there is something for everyone to enjoy, the whole year round. We can’t wait to share our love for the region with everyone who comes to visit.” The owners, Cameron & Stephanie Blanchard.
