    For €15 per person, you get hot, clean showers, very clean toilets, the option to do some sightseeing, the possibility of building a campfire at your spot, and picnic tables and benches almost every evening. And nature, nature, nature.... Very close to the Cahills Crossing, not far from Mount Ubirr... nothing but positive points.... The first night, absolutely no mosquitoes, certainly far fewer than at Cooinda. The second night was more complicated. But the real problem, in my opinion, is the ants. But I don't regret either of the two nights I spent there.

    15$ per Person, hot Showers, clean Toilettes, a Fire Place almost in every Parkspot. Nature and Location is great, but seriously, without Mosquito Spray you can‘t make it 😆 it’s insane Full with them.

    Had a good experience! The campground has a large bathroom area with proper showers and toilets. Ideal campsite to visit Ubirr Rock for sunset or sunrise.

    Loved this shady campsite, the perfect end to a great trip. The hot plate over the fire pit could be cleaner. Easy to do sunset at Ubirr.

    Do not come here unless you have thermacell, deet and the moral strength to fight tons of mozzies. We went mid may at the start of dry season and got bitten alive. It was very unpleasant. If you want to do Ubirr sunset/ sunrise, just find a place in jabiru and drive.

    Too expensive I think. Worst experience with mozzies ever. No way you can sit there at night. Good fire pit and bbq.

    Quite expensive for what you get, facilities are clean and very close to Ubir and Cahills Crossing. Sites are large and shaded. No pool or camp kitchen, only worth it if you don’t fancy the drive back to Jabiru imo.
