    Inglewood is a 130-acre property currently running beef cattle and sheep. The property has 15 acres of remnant stringy bark scrub which abuts the Heysen Trail. This private campsite is contained within the scrub although campers have access to the whole property. There are 13 bespoke sites available. The owner has the right to assist campers when choosing their site. This is determined by factors such as type of accommodation, group size. access to toilet and communal areas, weather and privacy needs. Specific sites cannot be reserved unless by prior arrangement with the owner. We offer sites suitable for camper trailers, campervans, , rooftop tents, tents and swags and pop top caravans (sorry, no large caravans). During the non fire ban period all fires must be contained in the fire pits provided. Please bring firewood if you intend to have a campfire for an extended period or you may purchase wood for $15 for 20 kgs. All bookings will be cancelled if a severe or catastophic fire is forecast by the weather bureau. Campers can claim a refund from Hipcamp A communal camp kitchen, barbecue, rain water and tables available. A composting toilet is available as is a shower system. Colloquially known as God's Country the property is conveniently located 1hr 20 mins from Adelaide, 14 mins from Victor Harbor, and 20 mins from Pt Elliot, Middleton, Waitpinga and Parson's beach, Hindmarsh Falls and Normanville. Other nearby localities are Deep Creek National Park, Newland Conservation Park, Springmount National Park, Granite Island and the Kangaroo Island ferry. The popular Belicious Belgium Cafe is a 60 min walk or 5 minute drive from the campsite. Walkers on the Heysen trail can access the campsite 100 metres away. (Keen Road entrance) Please note that the campsite has a no noise/music policy after 10pm. Noisy campers has been my biggest complaint so please respect others and adhere to the policy. Children must be supervised at all times. Please note that a fenced off dam is located near the campsite and is out of bounds to all children unless supervised by an adult. Rubbish must be removed by all campers as no bins are available. The whole campsite can be hired exclusively for large groups - contact me direct for booking details and costs. A wood package can be purchased for $50 the communal fire circle. The Scrub Campsite was honored to have won 1st place for best campsite in South Australia for 2024. All campers are to respect other campers and the land that they are camping on. We look forward to welcoming you to The Scrub Campsite!

    The Scrub Camp offers a peaceful and spacious camping experience, with plenty of room between sites, making it an ideal spot for unwinding. Visitors appreciate the well-maintained facilities and range of activities available, including go-karts and mini-golf, which are perfect for families with children. The host, Mark, is consistently praised for his friendliness and helpfulness. While most reviews are glowing, a few mention minor issues like the occasional site mix-up or non-functional shower, but these do not seem to overshadow the overall positive experience.

    A very peaceful spot. Midweek and I was the only one there. Plenty of birds around, especially superb wrens, and some roos. A nice place to enjoy the quiet bush.

    Such a beautiful and peaceful spot. No noise, no traffick, not even visible from the dirt road you drive in from. Lovely spot to just unwind. There is a shower made from water tanks and a toilet (drop toilet in a tin shack, just in case you're not keen on that sort of thing... Bring a torch at night!). A tin shelter using tree stumps to cook food with some BBQs and hang out. Some home made billy carts and bikes to borrow. Soccer net and ball. Plenty of room without being right next to your neighbours and a friendly host! Great spot to unwind from all the noise and bustle! Thanks for having us. 🙂

    Great spot, good facilities for a bush camp. The host "Mark" and his border collie "Molly" were fantastic. We will be going again. Thank you Mark.
