Very quiet park. Park generator operates 7.30am to 1am. Portable amenities. Free BBQ's. 17km off main road over dirt and windy road.

Amenity number would not cope in peak times, are close to most sites, were dirty, condition is poor, water pressure is good, there was adequate hot water. Adequate number of tourist sites, some level sites, poor night lighting, average sized sites.
Park Rating 2: Suitable for overnighter.

Considering the remote location, sites very cheap at $15 unpowered and $20 powered. Lovely outlook set amongst hills. Pleasant location. Water precious, hence low water pressure and water saver shower heads. Washing machine free, no need for driers in such a dry climate. Phone box on site. Features such as air tours, and astronomical Observatory were expensive. Fuel on site (only fuel outlet in region). Display of rocks. Average staff friendliness. Price was lower than expected, good value for money ($15 2A per night unpowered). Amenity number was adequate to cope with the number of people, are close to only some sites, were dirty, condition is reasonable, water pressure is bad, there was adequate hot water. Adequate number of tourist sites, mostly level sites, poor night lighting, average sized sites, drive-through sites. Basic laundry. Peaceful, open & roomy park, not enough shade, no permanents.
Likes: Adequate facilities at a good price
Dislikes: Cleaning of amenities block was superficial - they were left with dust and dirt.
Roads: Drive with caution due to dips. Dirt road, but suitable for 2wd at low speeds.

Manager's name is Peter. The Brook is a community managed Park which is owned by the Pirie council. When I rang to enquiry about booking a site I was told by Peter no need just rock up. Peter is the caretaker and is very friendly and helpful and lives onsite. It is a open park with lots of gumtrees around the edges which have been pruned for safety. 22 powered sites and a huge unpowered area. There are 4 permanent sites. Eftpos is available. The sites are large enough to take large 40’ coaches and trailers. Very friendly staff, good staff response to complaints, staff offered tourist advice, van parking assistance provided by staff, staff helped us at the site. Price was as expected, good value for money ($108.00 2A per week, powered). Amenity number was adequate to cope with the number of people, are close to all sites, were clean, condition is good, water pressure is good, there was adequate hot water, soap provided, dry change area, paper towels/dryer provided, exhaust fans/good ventilation. Adequate number of tourist sites, mostly level sites, good night lighting, large sites, no sites with concrete annex slabs, shade to most sites, adequate taps close by, adequate sullage close by. Basic laundry, no rec room. Quiet, open & roomy park, plenty of shade, family/friendly atmosphere. 2 clean electric bbqs (free), congenial bbq area atmosphere, bbq area lighting, a large under cover seating area as well. No playground, no pool. Suitable for a week or more, suitable for families.
Dislikes: The only complaint I have with the park is that the hot water is gravity feed which I spoke to Peter about and it is in the pipeline to be changed over to solar hot water with mains pressure. But being a committee managed park this all takes time.

This is a community owned park that is situated close to shops. There are some drive thru sites with concrete annex slabs and gravel based caravan stand. There are also grassed sites with concrete slabs. The amenities are good however; they would struggle to cope if the park were full. There is a shelter with electric bbq (pay) and a further electric bbq (free) located in the park immediately across the road. This park also has an excellent playground for children. Bookings are essential for folk fair weekend, which is generally held the second weekend in April. At $15 per night this park represents excellent value.

Melrose is a pretty town at the base of Mt Remarkable in the lower Flinders Ranges. The park is in an ideal location beside the gum tree lined creek and both lawn and gravel sites are available. Drums for campfires are a useful convenience. Alligator Gorge, Wirrabara Forest and the famous Stone Hut bakery are all short drives from Melrose and the town itself has many historic attractions - it is the oldest town in the Flinders Ranges. There are two excellent hotels, an award winning museum and Bluey Blundstones Coffee Shop is a must see located in an old blacksmiths shop. The walk up Mt Remarkable is challenging but worthwhile (5 hr return). Melrose is a brilliant spot for mountain bike riders and many trails can be found close to the caravan park. Ask for the map. Park staff are friendly and provided local information, maps and a walking guide to the town. Facilities are of average cleanliness and would be adequate for most times but the shower water was not always hot. There are a number of modern cabins and an enormous camping area across the creek. It is worth spending a few days in this area.

We have stayed at this park before, but this time decided to try an ensuite site, and the new ones are great. We booked ahead, and just as well as the park was filling quickly when we arrived. If you want to treat yourself after a Nullarbor crossing, or after coming down from The Alice, these new ensuite sites are terrific - ask for sites in the range 41 to 46 or 63 to 75, although those in the range 72 to 75 start to get close to the main highway. We had site 71, and no problems with noise at night. These sites have concrete pads for the van and large concrete slab for the annexe. You need to back into these sites, but there is plenty of room and assistance is available. The ensuites are spacious, have loo, vanity basin/cupboard, and fibreglass/plastic shower enclosures with a glass door. The floor stays pretty much dry! Good water pressure and instant gas water heater so steady temperature. Ceiling has IXL fan/heater/light combo, and a light outside for night visits - the road lighting was broken and the area quite dark, so we left the outside light on all night. Cost was $40 per night 2A, less BIG4 member discount. Not cheap, but an occasional treat doesn't hurt does it? There are some slightly older ensuite sites as well, but I do not know the cost or condition of those. As far as the rest of the park goes, it is well maintained although it can be dusty as there was no grass (water restrictions due to the drought in SA). Good pool, rec room, TV / internet room etc. Very friendly staff, good staff response to complaints, van parking assistance provided by staff, staff helped us at the site, staff explained park layout and facilities.

As we were only staying one night we got a drive through site (No 19), a bit narrow, but for 1 night was adequate. New ensuites had just been delivered and were to be placed along the fence line for caravan ensuite parking, so more improvements. Trees were being lobbed and tidied up when we were there. In summary, a highly recommended excellent spotless park, suitable for any length of time, and we would stay again but for longer.

Our site was a large level dirt drive-through site. Sullage provided. The two amenities blocks were very clean. In the laundry nearest to us, both commercial dryers had "out of order" signs stuck on them. Good camp kitchen, gas bbq. When we arrived we were surprised that the park was nearly empty, but there were quite a few reserved signs placed on sites. By 3.00pm vans were queuing up to enter and look for their allocated sites. We found some vans driving around a few times before they found their site. We could not understand why because the map was reasonably good. By evening the park was nearly full. Our neighbour, who said he came to this park at least twice a year, said he had never seen it so full at this time of the year. Security gate is closed at 9.00pm.

We had an ensuite site which was barren and treeless, but the rest of the park looked pretty well treed. Reasonable ensuite, although the shelf above the basin made it hard to clean your teeth. No grass in the park at all, just crushed rock. Good laundry with ample washing machines and clothes lines. Friendly staff, staff offered tourist advice, staff explained park layout and facilities. Price was as expected, reasonable value for money ($31.50 2A per night, ensuite, off-peak season). Ensuite was clean, condition is very good, water pressure is good, there was adequate hot water.

Resident owners Randall Hodge and Selina Smith. Large park with wide sealed access roads and white gravel sites of a good size. Most are level and some drive through. Shady trees for sites 1 -25, the side closest to the waterfront. Wire fence allows view of estuary and Flinders Ranges. Power, town water and sullage close. Staff friendly and explained park layout. Security pass for entry through locked gates after 9.30pm. Amenities clean, with good hot water. Numbers would not be adequate in peak season. Good laundry with lots of sunny clothesline space. One portable bbq in tiny fenced area beside amenities block. Pool. Small shop with souvenirs and basic groceries. Good night lighting. Not an inconvenient distance from shops but well away from traffic and town noise. Sound of shunting goods trains carries across the water; not unpleasant. At $23 (2A powered) good value and suitable for a stay of any length.

Easy to find, we just followed signs upon entering town. Down Main Street and to the left. There is actually another park down Main Street and to the right. Overall the park was nice and had good facilities. Was annoyed that on one day in the morning and again at night there was no hot water. Had to complain about this and about an hour after there was water just warm enough to have a shower. Also, as campers, wished they offered at least some unpowered sites. Average management, friendly management. Reasonable value for money. Average amenities, adequate number to cater for tourists, close to sites, were clean, were in good condition. Average sites, adequate taps close by, adequate sullage close by. Laundry, rec room, late checkout allowed (up to noon), good camp kitchen, kiosk, disabled facilities, dump point, security entry to park. Good atmosphere to park, family-friendly park. Clean UC gas bbq (free), with seating provided. Good playground, condition okay. Clean heated pool, pool area is shaded, kid-safe pool area, toddlers were catered for. Suitable for a few days, the park was well maintained.
Likes: Good camp kitchen and they were happy to move us to a site closer to the camp kitchen as we needed to make use of it. Had the fridge all to ourselves even on a long weekend/school holidays.
Dislikes: Lack of hot water, only just enough showers in main ablution block at peak times.
Added Touches: They did have a free pancake brunch on one day.
Local Information: Close to town, nice walk down to jetty and back.

Very crowded as befits the season - but very densely packed and horribly noisy. Kept awake both nights by neighbours playing loud poker, and one night by kids playing music until 3am, out of control of parents. Reaction of staff was that we should have awakened them for help (as English visitors didn't know we could do this), no apology or promise of action. For deaf fishermen only, I fear. Unfriendly staff, bad staff response to complaints, staff offered tourist advice. Price was as expected, poor value for money ($28 2A per night unpowered). Amenity number was adequate to cope with the number of people, are close to only some sites, cleanliness was average, condition is good, water pressure is good, there was adequate hot water. Adequate number of tourist sites, mostly level sites, good night lighting, small sites. Good laundry, good camp kitchen, secure entry. Noisy, claustrophobic park, not enough shade. Dismal bbq area atmosphere. Dirty pool is shaded, kid-safe pool area. Suitable for overnighter.

Stayed 3 days, $23.00 per night powered site member discount. Entry is via security boom gate. Reception was fairly friendly and we were shown on a park map where our site was. Our site was a drive through, reasonably level gravel site with some shade. There are two areas to this park and each has their own amenities block. The amenities were clean, as was the laundry with 2 washing machines and a dryer. There seemed to be lots of rules, with signs everywhere. Cabins were situated around the perimeter. There was no swimming pool or playground. But it was a quiet clean park and suited us. Unfortunately, on our last day and night we had an almighty downpour (approx 40 mls) so our site turned very muddy. Suitable for a few days or longer and we would return again.

After an enjoyable time travelling through Burra to Port Augusta, Port Lincoln then across to the Flinders Ranges we decided to stop a Quorn Caravan Park as we had passed through the town many times when we lived in South Australia.

We have 50 powered sites, many more unpowered, 6 women's showers, 4 men's showers, a babies' bathroom, and disabled bathroom. We now have instantaneous hot water systems, so that we do not run out of hot water at all. Although we could do with more shade in some areas, we have planted over 400 local native plants - many more to go. Arboreal experts advise not to cut out dead wood, as the chance of live limbs dropping increases. We provide guests with alternatives on where to park, so no-one need ever park under Red Gums.

Manager's name is Bev & Gordon Dahlitz. Report covers June 2007 and January 2008 stays. Fantastic scenery, great base to explore Flinders Ranges. Gravel and dirt sites, a small section of lawn but was not able to be used while we were there. Friendly and helpful staff. Handy kiosk with internet facilities, some groceries, tourist information, beer/wine and diesel/unleaded fuel. Car wash facilities but no sullage, very basic "Hills" playground equipment. Can also use kiosk to book and secure keys for self drive 4WD, scenic flights, horse riding etc. Swimming pool was a very welcome relief in hot 40C+ January spell (but overcrowded as a result) while plenty of designated campfire with BBQ plate beside every 2 sites on average and ability to purchase wood ($10 bag) was fantastic in 12C June cold spell. Undercover seating beside pool and kiosk. Separate undercover BBQ and seated areas, and a couple of amenities blocks, one being new brick and the other fibro (used both as my site was in between) - can be a bit of a walk and uphill depending on your site. During June hot water in main amenities was very poor as many others using shower at same time (but then used fibro block which was better as not as popular), but no problems in January. Plenty of great bush camping away from main part of caravan park, including small lake (plenty of water in June but almost empty in January) with Wilpena Pound as backdrop. Emus & roos often visit lake and sometimes park itself. Plenty of great family friendly bushwalking opportunities at Rawnsley Park, including straight from caravan park to nearby points of view/interest - free maps available. Excellent large camp kitchen with a number of tables and chairs, wood heater and TV. Had a free film night on Wilpena photography while we were there. A very relaxing park, great backdrop, most sites are level even though the caravan park is on side of hill above creek bed. Eco villas, cabins and dormitories are other accommodation of the station. Woolshed Restaurant back in main cabin section (about 1km back along dirt road) has some great meals although easy to spend $100 for family. Good family park, a bit noisy on one visit as groups had booked out a section. Also very noisy are Corella birds in trees depending on time of year. Short drive to lookout and parking bay for 5-hour walk up Rawnsley Bluff. Also can take 4WD around back of bush camping area. Dogs allowed on leash. Lighting very poor around most of caravan park (but fine in and around amenities and UC areas) but then that allows you to see billions of stars at night! HINT: Book ahead for Easter, June & October long weekends. Friendly staff, average staff response to complaints, staff offered tourist advice, staff explained park layout and facilities. Price was as expected, reasonable value for money ($32 2A 2C per night powered). Amenity number was adequate to cope with the number of people, are close to only some sites, were clean, condition is good, water pressure is good, there was inadequate hot water, soap provided, paper towels/dryer provided. Adequate number of tourist sites, mostly level sites, poor night lighting, small sites, average sized sites, concrete annex slabs, hard to negotiate into site, adequate taps close by. Good laundry, good rec room, good camp kitchen, kiosk, car wash, dump point. Quiet, open & roomy park, plenty of shade, family/friendly atmosphere, no permanents.

Clean heated pool is open to sun, kid-safe pool area, tables and chairs provided. Suitable for few days, well maintained park, park is considered kid-safe.
Likes: The awesome backdrop of the Bluff and Pound, especially sunset colours in summer; so many activities on offer, plenty of bushwalks around camp without having to drive anywhere, access to all the great Flinders things, a real bush camping feel, access to restaurant and a well stock kiosk/fuel outlet. Fuel was either cheaper than Hawker and Wilpena or same price. Free maps for bushwalking, mountain bike riding and also a recommended self daytrip drive exploring Flinders.
Dislikes: A lot of dirt and gravel with sites. The real dislike was that all the activities (other than bushwalks) with 4WD trips, scenic flights, mountain bikes and horse riding cost lots of money and no discounts supplied for purchasing multiple activities. Disappointed that hiring mountain bikes for 2A 2C was over $100!!
Parking: Drive into the caravan park and follow the signposts to the kiosk. Park in the "waiting lane" on the right hand side and go into kiosk which doubles up as caravan park reception.
Added Touches: Purchase a National Parks Pass ($7.50) from kiosk and it is valid for whole stay (otherwise you pay per day entry from permit stations on side of highway or in national park itself); maps; firewood sold; excellent large camp kitchen; ability to organise and book many activities, including restaurant, at kiosk.
Local Information: What can you say, this is the Flinders - awesome scenery and drives around the place, need I say more. Rawnsley is a great base and has an awesome backdrop. Check out Pugilist Hill lookout about 10km east of Rawnsley park (follow signposted road on highway almost directly opposite Rawnsley park entrance). Plenty of parking bays; bring your camera! Must do the self drive Rawnsley recommend, except add in Aroona Valley (Hans Heysen country) after exiting Bunyeroo Valley drive as a 10 km detour and requires a waterlogged creek crossing. Bushwalk to Wangara lookout in Wilpena pound worthwhile (shortest walk with a decent view).
Roads: January 2007 floods washed out the road 5km from Hawker on road to Wilpena, and requires a carefully driven gravel signposted detour of approximately 500 m around and over the creek bed. New bridge being built, but detour still in place 01/2008. Road between Hawker and Wilpena is bitumen. All other main roads, including the 2km stretch into Rawnsley and roads beyond Wilpena to Blinman are 2WD dirt roads. All valley and gorge roads are 2WD but care is needed, and 4WD only at times depending on weather. Take care driving from Rawnsley to Wilpena as there are many kangaroo hazards.

Well signposted. Swimming pool not open. Average management, reception staff friendly and helpful. Very good value for money. Top Tourist members $23.40 per night. Good amenities, were clean, water pressure was okay, there was adequate hot water. One large, new amenities block, near shop/office, very clean, good hot water and pressure. Smaller, older amenities block closer to campsites. Would not cope in peak times. For about 25 powered sites both amenity blocks are a fair hike. Park has 50 powered sites, a few are lawn, most are dirt/gravel and fairly level (book ahead for these) there are numerous areas to bush-camp. Average sites, adequate taps close by. Lighting is sparse. Areas provided at most sites for campfires. Laundry, rec room, good camp kitchen, kiosk, dump point. Good atmosphere to park, open and roomy park. Clean UC bbq, lit at night, with seating provided. Suitable for a week or more, the park was well maintained.
Added Touches: Park provides excellent map for a self drive day tour of area with 10 recommended stop off points.
Local Information: Lunch at Parachilna pub is a must! Wilpena Pound 20 kms north of park, great walking treks and views of pound. We went 200 kms north via Copley (Quandong Bakery has best pasties), Leigh Creek (see the coalfields) to Lyndhurst, a visit to Talc Alf is an experience not to be missed. We went south to Quorn and rode on the Pichi Richi Steam Train.

Basic Park with basic facilities but all functioned and did the job to let us enjoy the pound. Friendly staff, staff offered tourist advice. Price was as expected, reasonable value for money ($28 2A per night, powered, off-peak season). Amenity number was adequate to cope with the number of people, are close to only some sites, cleanliness was average, condition is reasonable, water pressure is good, there was adequate hot water. Adequate number of tourist sites, mostly level sites, poor night lighting, large sites, no sites with concrete annex slabs, shade to most sites, drive-through sites. Peaceful, open & roomy park. Suitable for few days.
Likes: Let park tenants use the pool at the motel - hot weather meant this was very welcome
Dislikes: Very basic facilities
Local Information: Absolutely gorgeous spot (the pound - not the park). Huge mountains and lovely scenery. Rained heavily while we were there - biggest fall in SA in 2 years, so we left in a hurry walking across the road covered with water to make sure safe. Very enjoyable.

Access both from Orroroo and from Hawker are both sealed roads all the way now. Once at Wilpena, the caravan park is part of the overall resort complex. Pull in at Visitor Centre to check in. Set in a sublime location, we stayed at one of only 30 powered sites. Plenty of unpowered, but if you want a powered site booking is essential. Some sites big, but some are squeezy. Amenities clean and functional but would be stressed in peak times. A country mile to the amenities in some cases. This park is centrally located to see the southern part of the ranges. You can book online but allow plenty of time because they respond with postal mail.

Lovely bush sites with plenty of room. Fires allowed sometimes according to weather conditions. It pays to book if you want a powered site. Average management. Reasonable value for money, $28 2A per night. Poor amenities, were clean, water pressure was okay, there was adequate hot water. Good sites, sites were level, the site size was okay, hard to negotiate in to/out of site, adequate taps close by, adequate sullage close by. Good atmosphere to park, quiet, shady park. Suitable for a week or more, the park was well maintained.
Likes: Lovely outlook. Beautiful, bushy sites with quite a lot of privacy. Lots of wildlife but you have to be wary of marauding crows and kangaroos if items are left outside. We even had a very small bat sneak inside the van one night and take up position in the curtains.
Dislikes: Very easy to lose your bearings at night time going to and from the ablution block. The ablutions are a long way from some sites.
Added Touches: Firewood is sold at the office. Timber can't be gathered in the park.
Local Information: Lots of bushwalks, some very taxing. Very spectacular scenery. Spend a day doing the 4WD loop. Make sure you fill in the walks book near reception. There were 2 helicopter rescues on consecutive days when we were there - one hiker with a broken leg. Mawson Track is great for bicycles but the signage leaves a bit to be desired.
Roads: They say the "loop" to the gorges can be done with conventional vehicles but there were sections I think would be taxing for those types of car.

A slightly upmarket bush camp. About 30 sites have power and water, then there is a huge area for bush camping. Amenities are a good walk from most sites. They are clean, showers are hot and all well maintained. The area is very pretty, lots of trees and kangaroos. The walk into the Pound is quite easy and many longer walks are available. Use of resort pool and other facilities is allowed. There is a shop, information centre and restaurants.
Likes: Open fires allowed - firewood for sale. The "tag-a-long" tour to Arkaba Station - spectacular.
Local Information: Visit as many of the gorges as time allowed, aboriginal sites.
Date 08/2006. Campground Rating 3.5: Stock up at Port Augusta and stay awhile.
Report submitted by FnJ, Sunshine Coast.

Nice outlook. Large park in 2 sections. Well set out bathroom, neat and clean, outback look building with open eaves. Washing machine was on veranda. Had to queue for showers and to use washing machine. Barbecue areas with sink and seating under cover and well lit - signed for use of coaches but used by campers. Campers can access recreation facilities at accommodation area. Most campers lit camp fires. Need to pay park entrance $7 (or park pass) as well as camp fee. Worth visiting for scenic walks and climbs. Friendly staff, staff offered tourist advice. Price was as expected, reasonable value for money ($18 2A unpowered). Inadequate number of amenities, are close to only some sites, were clean, condition is good, water pressure is good, there was adequate hot water. Adequate number of tourist sites, some level sites, poor night lighting, average sized sites, drive-through sites. Basic laundry, no rec room. Quiet, open & roomy park, plenty of shade, no permanents.
Likes: Campers could spread out amongst trees over a large area.
Dislikes: Had to queue for showers, and one day had a long wait with many others in the queue when bathroom cleaning ran late.
Parking: Due to large numbers of day visitors to park centre, finding space to park with a caravan near centre to book in was difficult. Large rig park was further away.
Local Information: Walk trails and climbs well signed. Flights over Wilpena Pound comparatively cheap and popular.
Roads: Suitable for 2WD.

Report submitted by Marg, Melbourne.

Stayed 3 nights, powered site $25.00 per night. A bit steep for what was provided. Average friendliness from staff. We were allocated site number 20, a level gravel drive-through site. We had stayed here previously in April 2007 and have found that not much has changed. Amenities sheds have not changed except perhaps are more shabbier and really need replacing. Average cleanliness but this is not the fault of the cleaner – how can you make something look bright sparkling clean when it is old, worn out and falling to bits. The bbq's cleanliness was poor in a dismal undercover bbq area. The camp kitchen was dark, dismal and uninviting. Poor run-down laundry. The only thing that had changed in this park was that a few more trees had died and some paving had been laid to one toilet shed. We stayed three nights because we had pre-booked the Olympic Dam tour. On arrival for the tour we were told that the guide was sick and it would not happen. We were shown a very good video but were very disappointed that we had missed the tour. Otherwise we would have only stayed here one night. The best part of this park is the bar, but it was only open on one night while we were there. Pity about the rubbish behind the bar but fronting the entrance. According to Jennifer, Shane is to turn this park into a 4 star resort by next year. The park was nearly full on two nights and was completely full on the third night with vans and campers/tents parked everywhere with power cables running from the toilets, camp kitchen and bbq area to accommodate everyone. So obviously there is a demand for sites in this park and an upgrade would bring in more happier people. This is a peaceful roomy park, with clean parking sites and water and sullage provided. Unfortunately the ablutions blocks let this park down. Suitable for overnighter or a few days.

Report submitted by Nicholstones.

Manager's name is Shane. We stayed in cabin and friends had caravan. Cabin was old Jayco, quite used, very dusty (even though were told had been stayed in the night before), pots and pans unusable (grotty and burnt bottoms), no toaster. Mismatch of cutlery, obviously missing some, spider webs in bathroom. Not provided full linen we paid for - however, all was taken care of quickly and managers otherwise very friendly. Would not stay in cabin again. There were also some ground floor motel style rooms in old singles quarters (we've been told a bit tired also). Onto caravan sites - about 30 powered, a few more unpowered. All gravel, drive thru and on a slight horizontal slope. Some taps near by, plenty of toilet blocks (at least 3) in such a small park. Two amenities in ATCO hut style in middle area of park, one a bit better than the other, and the third is part of accommodation in the old two storey quarters. Amenities blocks were clean, but only reasonably so. Camp kitchen was awful, everything looked old and too used and felt like being in my grandfather's shed. The BBQ was disgusting, on top of which you must pay a minimum of $1 to use (your first $1 spent just cleaning it). Tables and chairs in this area were also beyond use by date (drive a few hundred metres into Woomera and find Breen Park - free grassy picnic, bird aviaries and BBQ area). In utter contrast is the bar. Shane has converted an ATCO hut into a bar where you can buy (good prices) a few common types of alcohol/soft drinks, fenced off an area with slate flooring, lovely outdoor setting - a fantastic place for tourists to get together and just have a chat. Something very unique and what a wonderful idea - easily the best aspect of the park. Pity rest of the park was not up to this standard. Suitable for a couple of nights with basic facilities to explore region as it is a nice small quiet park but not really one to spend time in during the day (no playground, pool etc). note: price below is for cabin. Friendly staff, good staff response to complaints, van parking assistance provided by staff, staff helped us at the site. Price was lower than expected, good value for money ($83 2A 2C per night). Amenity number was adequate to cope with the number of people, are close to all sites, cleanliness was average, condition is reasonable. Adequate number of tourist sites, some level sites, good night lighting, average sized sites, drive-through sites, adequate taps close by. No rec room. Peaceful, open & roomy park, not enough shade, family/friendly atmosphere. No playground, no pool. Suitable for overnighter.
Likes: The Bar, friendly staff but not much else.
Dislikes: A lazy feel to cleanliness of the cabins, dirty BBQ area & camp kitchen. Nothing to do in the park itself other than park your van and go and explore elsewhere. A little noisy at times with road trains travelling to/from Roxby going up the sloping highway about 100 m from park 24 hours.
Parking: Drive into park and look for the large office sign and park close by.
Added Touches: The Bar and the fantastic opportunity to talk "bulldust" - meet other travellers.
Local Information: Woomera located 6km off Stuart Highway. A nice quiet town that still has BAe systems, BHP employees etc there and definitely worth a few hours to spend looking around. We had tea at the modern Eldo Hotel (hard to find but worth it) which was very yummy. The missile and aircraft display park in centre of town is main attraction, as well as the museum ($7 for 2A and 2C under 14) located adjacent which provides a lot of history about the town, models and artefacts. Visitor centre worth a visit which also includes a 10-pin bowling alley (open 10am-2pm) and diner with nice basic hot foods. IGA nearby and a tower that can be climbed outside visitors centre and a nice undercover playground opposite. There's an observatory which is open nightly - book ahead, small donation - but had a special free night we were there - fantastic! Highlight for me though is Breen Park located on northern edge of town - an oasis in the desert! Grassy lawns, at least 7 free BBQs with plenty of picnic benches, small playground and bird aviaries around perimeter. A BBQ tea at sunset by ourselves with adequate lighting was very special. Pimba located on Stuart Hwy 6 km away is really only a roadhouse but is also only fuel outlet in area and has Spuds takeaway. Didn't eat there but believe a nice friendly place travellers frequent, and a significant meal purchase enables 5c? discount on fuel.
Roads: Very good - highway and bitumen all the way - including to Roxby and Andamooka.

Stayed 2 days, $24.00 powered site (a bit steep). Friendly greeting by John who showed us to our site (No. 20) which was a drive through site. Site was level gravel with both power and good water. Little shade as trees were struggling. One permanent amenities block in the main building (refurbished as a backpackers area) and 2 cabin-type amenities buildings which were basic but clean. The laundry in the main building had 2 washing machines and dryers with good water pressure. When we drove into the park we saw a small tin cabin with "BAR" written on it in big letters. It wasn't till later in the evening, when we decided to check out this bar, that we saw what a great set-up this was. The "tin cabin" was in fact a beautifully appointed bar, (wow factor) with a raised outside slate floor alfresco area. Round tables with umbrellas were set up. Before long we had about 20 people enjoying a drink with us and all sat in a round circle comparing touring routes, and caravan parks. We all agreed that the bar area was wonderful and the park was great for a day or two. What a great evening. We did the same again the following night. Even though there were fewer people, the ambience was just as good. Drinks prices were reasonable. From the bar area we noted a green grass area with tents set up. Grass was being coaxed to grow in another tent area. To the left there was an undercover bbq area and further on a very small, old but clean camp kitchen. You cannot see any of this from the entry area and we would have missed it, had we not gone to the bar. John said he was keeping it a strictly tourist park with no permanents. He suggested that we also visit Roxby Downs and Andanooka, which we did. Roxby Downs is a very impressive mining town, worth the visit, and Andanooka (fully tar road) is a basically untidy opal mining town worth a visit. If we ever travel through the centre again, we would definitely make a stop for a day or two at Woomera Travellers Village.

Barely rates as a park, more a camping ground. 8 powered sites tucked in against fence with the main Barrier Highway 40 metres away and the main truck refuelling pump between the vans & the road. Hot showers available & normal roadhouse fare which it is a part of. However it is there if you need it and quite usable, just down the road Adelaide side there is a free camp area with toilets & cold showers, another alternative probably a better one unless you need power. Would stay again if necessary.
