Lifestyle Dookie is beautifully situated in a valley between Mt. Major and Mt. Saddleback and offers its town and district residents a quiet and peaceful lifestyle.  Dookie is a farming community, expanding its interests almost on a daily basis.  The Dookie population is also lucky enough to live 5 minutes from the University of Melbourne’s Dookie College , with which it enjoys a special relationship.  Dookie has many sporting groups, community groups and a wonderful community spirit.  It certainly is worth the 20 minute drive from Shepparton or 25 minute drive from Benalla to visit its many natural beauties.  The community is working towards developing Dookie’s many local attractions and local businesses for both the community that lives here and its visitors.
