Great spot to access Katherine George but housekeeping needs to up its game
Pros:

Cabin was modern and looked nice .Fans and air conditioning were great. We had a cabin overlooking the pool which was lovely. Washing machine and dryer was handy.

Cons:

Corners of the Shower, the seal on the door and drain weren't clean. A few dishes in the cabinet were dirty. Plus the floors weren't that clean either. Our Feet were dirty from walking around barefooted. Pool didn't open until 8.30am

A wonderful cabin for our 3 night stay in a great part of the Northern Territory.
Pros:

We were very pleasantly surprised by the lovely modern cabin. We stayed with our two adult children in one of the 2 bedroom cabins which was perfect for our 3 night stay in Katherine. The beds were comfortable and the place was very modern and clean. Sitting on our little balcony sipping a gin and tonic whilst watching the sunset was very special.

Beautiful place to stay just out of town with our family
Pros:

Set just out of town, we enjoyed the quiet and escape. The facilities were great, apart from the BBQs being out of order and the toilet at the large swimming pool due to the recent floods. We did see the BBQs getting replaced which was great.
Got a moment to relax in the pool whilst the kids were sleeping and it was so peaceful. The set up and the room was nice and the park overall is a really lovely space.

Cons:

A cot was requested but not set up in our room. It was promptly organised after a quick trip to reception which was great. The door lock was a little tricky at times.

This is the place to stay for a real rural experience and right in the magnificent river.
Pros:

Loved the location out of town and very tranquil and quiet.

Cons:

We realised we didn’t have hot water and the staff quickly offered us another room but we counter offered to have a later checkout which suited us perfectly.
