The details

More about Book a Stay

Book a Stay brings campsites on private land into Trip Tracka. Hosts list tent sites, van sites and bush camps on their farms, bush blocks and riverside properties, and every listing is reviewed before it goes live.

Search by dates, guests and the kind of site you need. Each listing shows the site types, how many spots are open each night, the longest rig a site takes, whether dogs, fires and generators are allowed, and the cancellation policy.

When you book, choose the trip it belongs to. Trip Tracka adds the stay to your route, your planner calendar and your expenses, so your trip budget is always up to date.

Once your booking is paid, it shows the street address, gate code, the host's phone number, arrival instructions and anything else the host wants you to know, such as where to park or the Wi-Fi password. You can add your phone number, arrival time and rego for the host too.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Where can I book stays?

Book a Stay lists campsites on private properties in Australia: tent sites, unpowered and powered van sites, and bush camps. Every listing is reviewed by Trip Tracka before it goes live.

Is there a booking fee?

A 5% booking fee is added to the host's price, and the price you see before you pay always includes it. Nomad Lifetime members pay no booking fee on their first $1,000 of stays each calendar year, then 5% on the rest.

When do I get the address and gate code?

As soon as your booking is confirmed and paid, your booking shows the street address, gate code, the host's phone number, arrival instructions and anything else the host has added. We email it to you too, and again two days before you arrive.

Does the booking go into my trip?

Yes. Choose a trip at checkout and the stay is added to the trip's stops, your planner calendar and your expenses, so your budget stays accurate.

Can I cancel?

Yes, from your booking. Each listing shows its cancellation policy (Flexible, Moderate or Strict) before you book. If the host cancels, you get a full refund.

Will my rig fit?

Hosts list the longest rig each site takes, whether you need a 4WD and the ground surface. Add your rig length when you search and sites that are too small are hidden.
