Safe campground, maybe around 10-12 large van spaces. Near the road (so a bit loud) but flat to set up. Bins are supplied, which are changed daily, and drop toilets 30m nearby (quite stinky but still... Read more

A great place to stay .!! If you don’t need power it’s free , you only need to pay a nominal fee for a shower. Shop staff were really friendly and only too happy to help. Great, clean amenities and a great pit stop on the way to Uluṟu 👍👍

Awesome place to spend some time at. Free camping with ample space. But does fill up, so be early. Great facilities- $4 hot showers and toilets. Great food and well priced.

Question:

Do you have grassy patches for picnics ?

Answer:

Good afternoon Lulu, we are located in a very remote area, in the desert. We have grassed areas around our buldings, but all the campsites, both powered and unpowered are dirt. There are no sites that are grassed. I hope the plans for your trip are going well and if I can help with anything else, please let me know. With thanks, Lyndee by Curtin S.

Answer:

Thanks Lynden, our plans coming on great so far we definitely looking forward to our three nights with your guys. Gonna be another epic adventure for us by Lulu D.

    They say life is better around the campfire. And we could not agree more.  Over the years due to increase fire risk it's become a challenge to find great campsites that allow you to have a fire by your tent.  Please be a responsible Aircamper and brush up on your fire safety knowledge. Bushwalking NSW has a great article that'll give you the rundown on how to light a fire responsibly.
