Our central campground features three powered and several unpowered camping sites all within easy access to the ablution block with hot showers, camp kitchen with a gas BBQ and fridge, communal fire pit, fenced spa pool and shaded picnic area.
There is a designated boat wash area and a large stainless steel bench for cleaning your catch from the famous Bynoe Harbour and surrounding estuaries.
The Nightjar Site hosts an airconditioned vintage van in a private area for the convenience of those wanting to hop in the car and 'go bush' or those extending their day out on the water and want to stay a night or two.
We've got you covered with a limited selection of goods for sale including ice, fishing tackle and insect repellents.
We love being close to nature and to enjoy our local native flora and fauna, where the lower section of the property has not seen fire for many years and boasts some very tall cycad, sand palms and many other species of native trees accessed by the designated walking trails. Don't forget your binoculars to view the variety of native birds species seen on the property. With some on the endangered list.
We suggest guests bring along their favourite repellent and wear covered footwear for exploring our bush walks. Dusk and dawn are the best times for wildlife viewing but also when insects are most active. Light-coloured, loose-fitting clothing and a hat helps guests stay cool and less attractive to 'critters'
We have equipped our sites with recycled oil lights which not only create a cozy atmosphere but one that's naturally less attractive to insects in the camping areas.
Our main camping season runs from April to September but we warmly welcome off-season bookings as well.

Ellengowan Retreat.
190 Threadfin Road, Dundee Downs, Northern Territory.
Ellengowan is a new and ongoing venture to provide visitors with a private, peaceful and relaxing camping experience set amongst 30 acres with walking trails throughout, located an hour and a half drive from Darwin city.
The property backs onto the Mackenzie Arm of Bynoe Harbor locally known as Six Pack Creek and the public boat ramp just a 5 minute drive away from the campground, perfect for launching your boat for a day on the water.
Our central campground features three powered and several unpowered camping sites all within easy access to the ablution block with hot showers, camp kitchen with a gas BBQ and fridge, communal fire pit, fenced spa pool and shaded picnic area.
There is a designated boat wash area and a large stainless steel bench for cleaning your catch from the famous Bynoe Harbour and surrounding estuaries.
The Nightjar Site hosts an airconditioned vintage van in a private area for the convenience of those wanting to hop in the car and 'go bush' or those extending their day out on the water and want to stay a night or two.
We've got you covered with a limited selection of goods for sale including ice, fishing tackle and insect repellents.
We love being close to nature and to enjoy our local native flora and fauna, where the lower section of the property has not seen fire for many years and boasts some very tall cycad, sand palms and many other species of native trees accessed by the designated walking trails. Don't forget your binoculars to view the variety of native birds species seen on the property. With some on the endangered list.
We suggest guests bring along their favourite repellent and wear covered footwear for exploring our bush walks. Dusk and dawn are the best times for wildlife viewing but also when insects are most active. Light-coloured, loose-fitting clothing and a hat helps guests stay cool and less attractive to 'critters'
We have equipped our sites with recycled oil lights which not only create a cozy atmosphere but one that's naturally less attractive to insects in the camping areas.
Our main camping season runs from April to September but we warmly welcome off-season bookings as well.

Perfect place to relax after a fishing trip. Steve has done a great job making his land hospitable, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone staying at Wagait Beach. Steve's communication was also top notch, and I hope to camp at his place again in future.

Great large grassed spot to park up for few days! We based ourselves here for our Darwin adventure for 5 days and was great. Power, water, bins, and gated. Kids loved having access to the pool and cubby and playing with the hosts kids.
Hosts very friendly and happy to help us with all our questions about attractions & things to do.

The camp area was perfect. The use of the pool was a bonus. Because of the time of year we needed power for Aircon. This caused a few brownouts. The caretaker was very responsive and reset the power every time we asked. Thanks again 10/10
