Spring Homestead; a tropical oasis.

Great accommodation and value for money:)

It was a great place to stay. Main shopping center only 10 minutes away. The actual place was clean and tidy. There was a cloths rack to hang washing but no clothesline. Some minor maintenance is needed (eg. update the floor in kitchen/dining area) but thtis wasn't a major problem. Over all a great place to stay and will happily stay again.

Typical N.T rustic home with clean simple furnishings and a great deck area. Pleasant tropical gardens and birdlife. The pool was great, too cool off in after a day's exploring and Artemis was a great host making sure our stay was comfortable.

Great place to stay if you want to explore wildlife around Darwin. Hosts very accommodating. Deck area was a lovely place to start and end the day with coffee or a drink.

Was a lovely property, nice and relaxing with lots of friendly animals to say hi too

We had a lovely stay. The host was so nice. It suited our situation perfectly. Out of the city but still plenty of facilities around.

What a wonderful place, and host family. (Artemis is the Mom and host.) We had two separate cabins - one that served as our sleeping area (with attached bathroom) and the other with kitchen/living room/TV...both had superb air con (and hot water A+). What a wonderful deal - book this place well ahead because it is worth it ESPECIALLY is planning on going to Fogg Dam for birds/wildlife (about a 30 minute drive otherwise at least an hour from Darwin city area). This accommodation is remote but a great shopping center 10-15min by car, and a wonderful Thai take out place about 5 min by car. We had great privacy - and learned much about the history of the area (Artemis grew up here). If possible visit her parents near Fogg Dam (they have Rainbow Pittas on their farm (a flower/fruit farm). Nearby Howard Springs Nature Park has Rainbow Pittas...but Fogg Dam was the best place to be. Barking Owl near the restaurant in the Botanical Gardens (calling during day); occasionally Rufous Owl and Southern Boobook seen on this property. Overall for value, ease of access, privacy - and kindness of host, this was one of our best stays in our two months traveling Queensland, NT and Sydney. Really great value - ignore negative comments - this place is worth it (we stayed 8 days). Check bird guide books for other local places to find birds...Darwin is worth at least one week...We were here in mid-July 2024 and had a great time. Thank You!

We were there for a week. I was excited to be out of the city for our stay. When we arrived it was not what we expected. 2 separate dwellings, one was bedrooms and bathroom and the other was kitchen, dining, lounge with a covered in verandah. The owners property is not far away. Was very disappointed with the pool. We presummed we had access to it, but the owners run a swim school from it most days and you dont always have access. We had some cockroaches in the cupboards and drawers and tiny ants on the benches and window sills. The pictures did not give you the proper idea of what the property was. Overall it was a pleasant stay.

Really enjoyed our weeks stay here. Lovely and relaxing and we enjoyed our bbqs on the patio watching the geese ducks and chickens. Accommodation was very spacious and provided a separate room for sleeping and bathroom. Kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed and more. A country feel but close enough for us to make a couple of day trips to enjoy Darwin.

We loved our stay. The hosts are lovely, the tropical garden divine, the pool a life saver and the price was fair. All was as described. I definitely plan to return. Big thank you from both of us ??
