Enjoy our tropical, secluded oasis and wake up to the sounds of native bird life each morning.  Conveniently located, we're a 30 minute drive from Darwin CBD , 15 minutes from two major shopping centres, 1 hour from Litchfield National Park , 1.5 hours from Kakadu National Park, 20 minutes from the public dump point, and only 5 minutes from the local IGA, doctor, chemist and post office, plus the family friendly Howard Springs recreation reserve and excellent pine forest mountain bike trails. We have a level, grassed site with dedicated water and power access, the option to share our refreshing plunge pool, large entertaining area and a fire pit with wood for fresh dry season evenings.  Wander the yard to pick fresh herbs, tropical flowers or fruit straight from the trees. There are rubbish, recycling and compost facilities.  You will need to be fully self-contained with your own camping toilet/shower. No pets please.

Outstanding Hipcamp
Howard Spring Retreat has been a well organised stay for us. Food scraps are recycled to the chooks, all other rubbish and cans placed in their individual bins. It is a tranquil and private setting. We would definitely return. Thank you to this family for hosting us for 6 nights.

A little oasis just outside of Darwin City. Nice shady sites and small pool to cool off in when feeling hot. Great local shops nearby. Hosts are lovely. Would definitely recommend

Lovely grounds and the hosts were both friendly and welcoming. Power and water was much appreciated and we felt very safe during our stay.

One of the best
This camp would have to be one of the best camps so far in the NT. Quiet, tropical, central to shopping centres and 30 minutes from Darwin. Feels like you are in the middle of a quiet rainforest even though there are only 2 sites you cant see each other. Great hosts highly recommend.

We had a great 1 night stay prior to our 2 week NT adventure. Kristy was so friendly and the site was grassy and private with beautiful trees about.

What a slice of paradise! Clint and Kristy were incredible hosts - warm, welcoming and friendly. We truly felt at home couldn’t have asked for more. Each site was well cared for, provided plenty of space and a beautiful backdrop for our stay. The pool was clean and refreshing. Only a short drive into town, but far enough to escape the hustle, bustle and noise. We’d come back and stay again without hesitation, only hoping that we could have stayed longer.
