Another typical Nullabor roadhouse with no reticulated water to any site and no tap readily available to get drinking water. We had a powered site. When we asked for a jug of water we were grudgingly given it along with a lecture about drought conditions. What did we pay $40 per night for? The van sites were nice and flat. Food in the roadhouse was over priced and over rated. Again, typical Nullabor. The amenities for service station customers appeared cleaner than the block for campers.
Average staff friendliness. Poor value for money $40.00 for 2A PN. Amenities are close to all sites, cleanliness was average, condition is reasonable, paper towels/dryer provided. Adequate number of tourist sites, mostly level sites, sites will accommodate medium to large vans, no sites with annex slabs, very few sites are shaded, drive-through sites. No rec room, no camp kitchen, kiosk. Noisy, open & roomy park, inadequate shade, no permanent/annual vans. No BBQs. No playground. No pool. Suitable for overnighter.
Liked:- Painted stones nicely delineated the sites.
Disliked:- Save your $ 40 and free camp down the road somewhere.
Road Conditions:- Boring.
