2 nights at Hokey's Camp Site Wagait Beach

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.

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 🌻

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

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

Our stay here was great, Peter has thought of everything possible which made it a very accomodating and easy stay. Plenty of privacy with all of the native trees and work he's put in. The pool is also a great bonus!!

Great camp spot. Easy to book and the host Melissa is just lovely. She greeted us on arrival and showed us around. My kids got to feed a carrot to a donkey in the morning. I recommend it!

The pool was refreshing and pretty The amenities were very clean and modern with each cubicle with its own hand basin ,toilet and shower The staff were wonderful,friendly and helpful The location is perfect for exploring litchfield NP
