We had an incredible time at Glenn's Hipcamp. The drive was scenic, though a bit bumpy in spots, but the mountain-top views were breath-taking—especially at sunset.
Our site felt private, despite being near the public bathroom, and Glenn was an absolute highlight of our stay. His passion for the park and his art shines through in every detail. He’s super welcoming, full of great stories, and went above and beyond—like setting up our gas heater so the space was warm when we returned from a day trip.
The park itself is a creative wonderland with restored cars, sculptures, and even a lake for paddling. It’s a great escape from screens, and Bathurst is nearby for a fun day trip before returning to watch the stars.
Highly recommend for a one-of-a-kind experience!
It was amazing accomodation, Glen was also so helpful and friendly. My battery on my car died and glen kindly drove down the road to get me some jumpleads. I would strongly recommend staying here. Also Glen recommended some local attractions that I would not have known about if he didn’t stay here thanks so much 😀
The kids loved the experience!
It was a stunning view where the bus is located!
Definitely one of those memorable experiences with the family!
Glenn was a very accomodating and hospitable host! High recommended to those people who wants to experience something unique and relaxing!
Amazing views of the wilderness of Turondale with the added benefit of art sculptures and lake with paddle boats!! Loads of accommodation, we stayed in WW11 tower - perfect for school holidays & entertaining teenagers. BBQ options, great shower / bathroom options. Peaceful & special sunsets.
