    Perfect way to camp but in comfort and much more interesting than a hotel. Hosts were helpful and very friendly.

    Bedding was a bit basic. Very clean but I prefer a Donna to blankets…but hey,it’s glamping not a hotel.

    Clean and comfortable glamping tent, with aircon or fan, torch, fire pit set up for us with wood by host. Lovely pool and gorgeous sunset deck nearby. Kitchen facilities good too.

    The deck at sunset was such a beautiful experience, on our own with huge views. Tent was very comfortable, I would totally recommend this experience, and only 10 mins drive onto the gorge.

    Feels quite remote. We were wondering if we were at the right place when we arrived. I think when they build the cafe & pool area it will be amazing. Get supplies in Katherine beforehand. Nice for 1 or maybe 2 nights.

    The sunset deck & pizzas are great - homemade gourmet 😊 also great bathrooms

    Just a small point was no tea/coffee was provided as in every other campsite we had stayed at in the kitchen. A small irritation but did not spoil our memories at all.

    Just had a lovely relaxed feeling. Kate made us feel welcome on her arrival. The sunset deck and star gazing was fantastic, easy to walk too we didn't think it was necessary to take the car but can understand that walking back in the dark might not be everyone's cup of tea.

    Was told there was a bar at the sunset deck and there wasn't. Not a big thing but a drink watching sunset is such a nice thing to do.

    Great place to stay before going to Katherine Gorge. Tents were fabulous and very well set up. Bathrooms were clean and well equipped. Sunset Deck for the sunset was fabulous and the pizzas were great. Make sure you take your own drinks for sunset - a mistake I made which was disappointing. Would definitely recommend to others to stay here.

    the eco safari tent was so close to each other. Can clearly overhear others (next tent) talking when they are around, so we upgraded to the backside and it was much quieter.

    clean toilet and bathroom. Nice deck, yummy pizza! Clear direction from staffs

    Nothing!

    The Glamping Canvas Bell Tent was comfortable, spacious and even had air conditioning! Each Glamping Tent has its own outdoor fire pit and seating area. The on-site repurposed fish tanks now doubling as dipping pools were great. The shared kitchens and toilet blocks/showers were in good working order. The shared kitchen blocks were well equipped - fridges, running water, cooking facilities so definitely bring your own food/beverages for your stay. The real highlight was the sunset deck and having the host bring us pizzas for dinner (charged at $30 per pizza). The location is also a short drive to Katharine Gorge.

    The noisy neighbours. Some people are just thoughtless.

    A beautiful location with stunning sunsets. Just a pity the noisy neighbours were up till the early hours. Very friendly staff, didgeridoo player a fantastic bonus.

    It’s a quick drive into Katherine itself or to the gorge. There are plunge pools, but otherwise it is just a lovely serene place to stay.. I wouldn’t recommend it for families wanting bouncy castles or playgrounds.

    We spent 3 nights in the glamping tents .. Kate was a wonderful and informative hostess. The tents were great, the pizza on the deck at sundown fabulous, the camp bathrooms spotless
