We had an amazing stay at Andrew’s Hipcamp! From the moment we arrived, Andrew was a legend—super accommodating and met us at the gate. We were the only ones on site, so we enjoyed complete privacy and had the freedom to choose a lovely spot. The weather was perfect, the grass was lush and green, and overall, it was an excellent experience. We’ll definitely be back and will highly recommend it to our friends!

Such a beautiful, secluded spot! The area was so well maintained and you can tell Tim really cares for the land. He was the perfect host, always ensuring we were looked after but also conscious of being overly involved (which he NEVER was by the way). There was so much wildlife to enjoy - we really did have the best time!

Weekend Trip to Wallaby Haven

Conveniently Located 1hr 20 from sydney and 10mins from Morrisset town so can run in for supplies etc…dirt track was the attraction for us so our boys could use it for their bikes. They had a blast and camping was hassle free.! The site we picked was down hill from the flat ground area but suited us with two young kids they could just run freely and have loads of space to themselves, the in ground trampoline was a hit with them too. We will for sure be back again

Wallaby Haven is a great place to stay for any group size. There are lots of wallabies hopping around and crickets and frogs amoungst other wildlife. Louise & Nigel were very accommodating. There was also good access for my 2WD van despite the heavy rain. I will stay here again.
