Excellent
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The cabin could be said to be dated but everything was there : good fridge, hob, microwave etc. Bedroom had enough space, shower did work but could be better. This is the perfect place to see Nitmiluk and see the gorges. Staff are really helpful.
If you can go on the evening dining cruise it's something not to miss.
Although the two bedroom cabin was small and a little dated, we enjoyed our stay there, the accommodation was all that we needed and was close to the Katherine Gorge. We enjoyed the live music in the pool area as the sun set. We did drive from there to Katherine for food supplies and it was some distance to some of the other attractions on the other side of Katherine but this wasn't a problem for us.

Close to a kiosk that had a range of food and drinks. Pool area lovely. Close to the gorge and walking options.
Cabin had absolutely everything you could need. Fully stocked kitchen with stove top, cooking utensils and pots + pans etc.
Super comfy bed, lovely shower after a hike or a big day. Washing facilities and swimming pool all few mins from the cabin :)

Beautiful location and great cafe facilities and cafe. The small deck needs extra wiring to stop young children or chairs falling off. Unfortunately a small piece of glass was still on the floor and caused an injury.

The old style cabin was one of 9 at the back of the caravan park. It was beautifully clean but the wooden kitchen needs modernizing and the bathroom is very small. The beds take most of the room in each room. It was surprisingly cold overnight and the one blanket wasn't enough. The air conditioning units were complex to use. We liked the canteen in the pool area and the proximity to everything in National Park.
tranquility great pool if a little cold heat walks and things to do

I particularly liked that it is convenient to Katherine Gorge.
It was cold - I would have liked the property to have had a spare blanket.

Loved Nitmiluk
Cabins are basic and in need of an upgrade. Bathroom very basic and in poor condition as are the sliding doors to porch area.
Considering to cost of the accommodation a better standard of accommodation would be expected. Having said that we loved Nitmiluk and had a wonderful time

Great location close by to Katherine gorge jetty and lookout. Nice little cafe by the pool area but meals quite pricey. Friendly staff.
Floors in the cabin appeared as though they had not been cleaned properly in quite a while. Comfy couch in living area. Would have also been helpful to have more than 2 plates.
Beautifully situated and clean. Chalet might be a little inflated term for a cabin. It was very small, but had everything one needed. There is the Visitor's Centre nearby for breakfast, lunch or dinner ... we can recommend the breakfast! You are right beside the Katherine Gorge and the boat trips
Clean chalets, unfortunately there are ants in the kitchen area. Water leaks out from the shower recess. Otherwise great stay.

Convenient location to Katherine Gorge
Self contained cabin that suited our needs for a 2 night stay to explore Katherine Gorge. Expensive for a basic cabin, but you pay for the convenient location. I can’t comment on the restaurant or pool area as we didn’t use these facilities

Unfortunately, we didn’t have a great checkin experience. We had advised earlier in the day that we would arrive after hours and were given an after hours number. However, a key wasn’t available as arranged and we waited around 40 minutes for a staff member to arrive. I also rang to check on facilities, staff were unable to answer simple questions. We had to ask people in other cabins to assist us as we were unable to use our mobile phones once we left Katherine. We were concerned that our party of four would have nowhere to sleep. So, not great ….
