I wish we could have stayed longer. Pete was an amazing host and the property was really nice and not too far from Darwin. The bathroom and shower were beyond all expectations and I don't have a single complaint. If I'm ever in Darwin again, I know where I'll be staying!

Beautiful campsite and Peter was a great host. A lot of time, love and effort has gone into creating a small nature haven in the suburbs of Darwin, with lots of native trees and the wildlife that they attract. Peter was very friendly and gave us lots of advice on what to do, where to eat and drink etc. I'd highly recommend staying here if looking to camp in the Darwin area

The site we had like many around us was very quite, unable to see other campers , if your van is set up with batteries and water then you are able to chose a no power/water site , the toilet and shower blocks x 2 are kept very clean , washing machines x 2, also available, Peter the host was very helpful taking rubbish away almost daily , making sure all was ok . The location dependent on Traffic was 15 to 22 mins to Darwin city . $33 by uber .At all time we felt safe as the place is fully secure with 6 foot fencing and electric gate . If coming to Darwin and enjoy camping and want to be close to the City i highly recommended this place , price was also very good .👍👍👍

This Hip Camp is called an Urban Retreat because that is exactly what is!.. its a quiet secluded oasis in the middle of urban Leander, with sites surrounded by an array of trees that our host Peter has planted. The ammenities are motel quality, with a pool handy for cold dips on a hot day. And if need to know where to go or what to do, Peter is only too happy to share advice. Couldn’t recommend this place more highly.
