Weekend Trip to Howard Springs Haven

Fantastic spot. Close enough to Palmerston and Darwin, but far enough away to enjoy some quiet. Our kids loved playing in the pool with the hosts kids!!!

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!

7 nights at Camp Wallaby

Close to local shops and a short easy drive in to Darwin CBD. The hosts allowed you to choose your site rather than place you near other Hipcampers.

3 nights at Strangy's Place

This was a great stay..it was by chance we found it advertising for a space to fix our car.. Jennifer could not have done enough for us arranging our stay..we ran into some trouble needing a lift to get parts and Lochy was a great help driving us around to where we needed to go… things you need to know - it is peaceful and away from traffic noise.. there are chooks that say hello each day… the pool was loverly and refreshing and the bathroom was clean and good.. it is a bush setting and although I get eaten by midges and mossies.. I lite the coils early and never had an issue… please clean up after yourselves after you use the bathroom… it is not the hosts job to clean up after every use … thank you Jennifer and Lochy we loved staying at Strangys 🌻

1 night at Berry Springs Park and Stay

We needed a place to camp for the night before heading to Litchfield and we were able to book and arrive last minute, which was super helpful. Toilets and shower available, easy to find. Would recommend

2 nights at The Urban Retreat

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

5 nights at Mambo Lodge

We had a warm welcome on arrival. The sites are well shaded from the NT sun, plenty of space and very tranquil setting. The hosts were wonderful and very helpful. They have good knowledge of the area and gave us great ideas and places to see to fill in our days. We received clear instructions and prompt responses. They are the best we have come across in our travels around Australia.
