"Word got around and just random people starting showing up, and I mean me and my wife were standing at the gate trying to stop people coming in," Campbell said.
"You could see people talking on their phones saying the party is happening at this address."
He heard a large party down the road had been shut down earlier that night, and the occupants had migrated to his house.
Campbell estimated at least 100 extra people swarmed his property, forcing him to make the call to police at about 11pm.
The police spokesman said police got a report at about 11pm.
"Police began moving people on at about 11.30pm and the street was cleared by midnight," they said.
Police partially closed the street off as a part of the effort to clear the party, Campbell said.
He said the state of his house and property this morning was similar to the morning after a major festival.
Still, he said, he was lucky to have his community rally behind him to help clean up despite the party disturbing their sleep.
"One woman from the community helped clean up the road and picked up bottles and cans that had been dumped, I really appreciated that," Campbell said.
"I thought I would get a lot of backlash, I have really appreciated that most people who have reached out have been sympathetic."
Neighbours on a social media community page were also appreciative that Campbell and his wife were honest about the situation.
"Credit to you for being honest about it. Hope your house hasn't been damaged either," one person wrote.
"You poor things! Ain't parenting fun!" another wrote.
