This is a campsite for those who want the best of both worlds, the serenity of the Australian Bush, but close to all the modern conveniences and holiday activities.
Surrounded by the Hindmarsh Valley National Park and a working sheep farm, you’ll be sharing this campsite with the local kangaroos, and if you’re lucky, an echidna or two. There’s a creek running through, and vibrant bird life.
Nearby is a beautiful bush-walk through the Mount Billy Conservation Park.
Situated half way between Myponga and Victor Harbor, only 15 minutes to either, there are many activities available. Kayaking on the Myponga reservoir, or surfing, swimming and sun bathing at either Horseshoe Bay or Waitpinga.
Urimbirra wildlife park is less than 10 minutes away, and around the corner is the Softfoot Alpaca Farm, with the on-site Swagman Restaurant. Also in Hindmarsh Valley is the lovely restaurant Lost Phoenix Farm.
Over your stay, you will likely encounter our two dogs, Lola and Sherlock, who very much enjoy meeting our guests. Lola is particularly fond of children and loves to play fetch with them, whilst Sherlock will try charm you out of your sausages. Despite what he says, he is well fed at home. They are both good at giving high fives. If you would prefer not to see the dogs, please just let us know and we will keep them under strict supervision.
An RV dump point is located on Adelaide Road, Victor Harbor, within the tourist information bay, 200m south of Waterport Road, approximately 10 minutes from the site.

Camping at Steve's property was relaxing and quiet. The grounds are spotless. We've seen kangaroos hopping around the area and koala's and possum's live in the area as well though we haven't them during our stay and that's a good excuse to go there another time. The camp spots (2) have shade and sun during the day so perfect for our two dogs who like to stay out of the sun. We fitted easy with our 16.5 ft caravan. We loved the fact that there are only 2 camp spots in the paddock because our dogs are reactive. We would love to spend some more camp bliss here in the future. We've met Steve who came to greet us during our stay. He's a friendly guy who loves a chat and was absolutely kind to our small dogs. There's a nice park along the Onkaparinga River which is a short walk across the road. The township of Clarendon is on walking distance and there's a great Opshop around the corner!

We only used this camp as a stopover but wish we had the time to stay longer and enjoy the property! Instructions to get to the location are very easy to follow even in the middle of the night…Steven and his family were so lovely and nice to have a chat with…lots of knowledge about the surrounding areas and places we were travelling to next. Campsite was flat and plenty of space for our setup…we had the place to ourselves which was a bonus!

Great little spot in Hindmarsh Valley, nice and quiet, well, except for the thousands of lovely birds! Lorikeets, rosellas, magpies and kookaburras were just a few that serenaded us throughout our stay. A shy kangaroo stopped by but wasn't too impressed that we had camped on the nice green grassy section, so bounced away. Very relaxing and enjoyable weekend all around.

Steve has a couple of really nice camp spots, sheltered in the valley from the winds and sun if required. I would recommend Site 2 for a good mix of shade but gets enough sun to charge the caravan battery up with the extra portable solar panel. It was a good central location for us to visit Monarto Safari Park and have a day out in Adelaide. The Clarendon Valley is picturesque location with plenty of wineries to visit.
Steve was a great host who came to visit us a welcome us to his Hipcamp. He has a wealth of knowledge for things to do and see in a greater part of SA. I would highly recommend staying here.

We loved having a van at Steven’s place. Flat, quiet and beautiful trees surrounding. It was a bit tight getting in and out but enough room to manoeuvre once on the flat. Easy walk to town, and short drive to plenty of attractions in the area. Steven was a great help with local knowledge and tips on places to visit.
Would recommend.
