2 nights at Edith’s Farm

We loved our time at Edith’s Farm! Morgan was lovely at our meet & greet. With the ground being so wet, Morgan allowed us to camp near the Donga up the front on dryer ground & then gave us access to the shower, flushing toilet & washing machine! She went out of her way to ensure we were comfortable & happy where we were. We would definitely recommend a stay at Edith’s farm!

Weekend Trip to Darwin River Fern Farm

Great little spot close to Darwin. Heaps of shade amongst the trees, nice clean toilet block. Only down the road from Darwin river tavern which has a great new pool to cool off in. Good communication from Georgina, would happily come back.

1 night at Hokey's Camp Site Wagait Beach

Amazing place to stay. We had the whole section to ourselves. Great place to view the night sky. Wonderful amenities, fire pit, covered eating area, bathroom, etc. if only we had more time!!

Weekend Trip to Kick Back & Relax Campsite

It’s always a great stay at Kick Back ‘n Relax at Dundee Beach. Our 3rd stay and it’s awesome! Jessie is a very welcoming host and the campsite on a private block overlooking the ocean is magic. The sunsets are the best.

Amazing. Can’t wait to go back. Buying a telescopic ladder to easily get down right at front. The access isn’t that bad a bit down to the left anyway plus the right down a bit has easy access to beach.

Jean & John's Bynoe Stopover

130 sites · RVs, Tents40 acres · Bynoe, NT

The property is 40 acres of carefully maintained virgin rainforest. Our flora and fauna are exactly the same as nearby Litchfield National Park, unfortunately without any waterfalls. We have cleared about 10 acres of undergrowth leaving the trees for shade. Animals and other wildlife are abundant with the lilly pond on our front lawn being the only permanent water other than the Finniss River that they have in the area. We have hundreds of wallabies, goannas, frill necked lizards and plenty of bird life. Our pet Red Tailed Black Cockatoo "Butt" attracts the local wild ones, because she is happy they trust us so you can get closer to them than usual for photos. We have toilets and showers set up, the showers are cold water direct from the bore which meansminimum ground temperature so around 30 degrees not really cold at all. There is also a large wood fired BBQ in the same central area. The fish filleting table and boat cleaning area is also nearby. The local kites and other raptors including sea eagles and if you are lucky may see a wedgetailed eagle come in for fish scraps. Croc and dingo area - be aware! We are on the narrowest piece of land between the Finnis River and the Bynoe Harbour so although unlike my neighbours I haven't encountered crocs on the property I'm well aware that they would cross it. The dingos are heard at night as they pass through the area so we request that all food and scraps are kept out of reach as we don't want to encourage them...The pool is a magnet to children and adults alike, it is very old so we request that care and respect be exercised. Each afternoon we gather on the deck for happy hour with the drink of your choice. This is a lovely relaxing end to the day sharing camping adventures and learning about other's lives on the road and often at home too. This is generally Butts photo session and she can be a poser. It's a memory of your stay unique to here as Redtailed Black Cockatoos are generally shy but our Lady is happy to stand on your shoulder and even sqwauk in your ear if she's being difficult. We allow fires in pigs or other ground fire pits as well as the large bbq. We have a few fire pits that you may borrow. This is governed by fire conditions of course and usually we follow the local rating .

Camp Wallaby

5 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · Holtze, NT

Our 10 acres is part of a larger family property bought in the early 1960s. There were no neighbours, no roads, no development, no nothing! My parents developed the property, ran livestock and to this day the property remains the same with my 94 year old mother still living on the larger part of the property with us siblings living around.
