I've stayed here twice, and quite like the rustic character of the place. However I have to say that one night was extremely noisy, with several tour groups playing very loud amplified music during the evening. It did eventually stop, but was not the sort of experience I was expecting. Amplified music should definitely be banned. It can be very... More

We stayed at Kings Creek Station for 2 nights on a 10 night trip making our way from Alice Springs to Adelaide. One of the places we wanted to visit on the trip was Kings Canyon, on researching accomodation in the area we came across Kings Creek and emailed them via their website.. after a couple of communications we found...

We booked accommodation here with slight reservations as the reviews were so mixed but felt many of the criticisms appeared to come from people who expected more upmarket facilities. We're glad we took the gamble as it was one of our most enjoyable stays in Australia. The setting, near to King's Canyon, is beautiful. Yes, the accommodation is small and... More

Our group of seventeen all loved our stay at Kings Creek station. The camp kitchen was great and well stocked with essentials, the fact that we could have a campfire and the wood provided was great. Our breakfast which was included was scrumptious. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. As for the whingers about the dusty and the tents... More

After reading earlier reviews I was a bit apprehensive, but found this place to be a real gem and if the reviews keep the whingers away, all the better for those of us who found it so very special. I travelled with a group of 4 camper trailers and assorted tents (17 adults, 2 children 2 and 4) The reception... More

We used one of the powered caravan park sites. We arrived late and the office was closed so we just pulled in, parked and went to sleep. We paid in the morning and no one made the slightest fuss. The place feels more secluded than the sites at Yulara or Kings Canyon. We had a place to make a campfire... More

WOW! is the only words I can think to describe a recent experience. My family has been on a round Australia trip and we though Kings Creek would be a wonderful experience. Unfortunately it would have to rank as the worst! I was at the office with my family waiting to book in. There was an obvious incident with another... More

We arrived at King Creek Station looking forward to a once in a lifetime experience. We knew that we were staying in a safari tent but I was gobsmacked when we saw our tent. It was extremely small and we had to leave our suitcases in the car. We were close to the toilet block and kitchen tent and I... More

Please... firstly it had been raining, so all the dust had compacted to mud.. which got everywhere, inside the safari tent, all through the toilets, the restaurant, etc. Staff were nice and friendly, but I wonder if it was to just made another over-priced buck. We went to the camel 'show' they had with damper and billy tea... but had... More

This station is so nice to camp at. We had a whole big area all to ourselves, our own camp fire and BBQ pit, our own table and chairs and own undercover eating area. The amenities were fairly clean and the staff were very helpful and friendly. We were sad to leave. It made an excellent base for exploring the... More
