Detailed Reviews
The Boab caravan park in Katherine was absolutely fantastic. It is only small, but the amenities were spotless. The lady checking us in was delightful,. The lawns and surrounding areas were well maintained by a friendly fellow, and the ablutions kept spotless by a most obliging lady. Thank you Boab caravan park, you made my first trip to Katherine most memorable,

Finally a reasonably priced, clean, quiet, safe caravan park. They have even pruned away all of the potentially hazardous eucalypt tree overhanging branches that other parks dismiss as not their problem. You can leave your car and van hooked up for convenience.

Can’t rate this caravan park highly enough.
After arriving tired from a long drive from Fitzroy Crossing, we were told to “park and come and check in in the morning”
What a welcome!
The park is all lawn, trees, clean toilet blocks, laundry, and shared kitchen area.
Lots of extras like hoses on the taps, cleaning equipment and produces in the shared kitchen, magazines in the laundry.
Fantastic park, great staff - Nathan the manager understand hospitality, and a great little servo/shop at the front of the park.

We stayed in a motel style room in a duplex style cabin. Although the cabin looked old from the outside, it was quite clean and smart inside. It looked as though the rooms have had a makeover and the bathroom was of a reasonable size. Unfortunately, it was hard to get a sustained temperature for the shower.
Our room had a writing desk, flat screen TV, microwave, toaster, electric kettle and tea/coffee.
On site there is a service station, bottle shop and a deli tat serves hot and cold food.
We received a great welcome at reception, but weren't impressed when people in rooms on either side of us had their dogs in the rooms with them.

Unfortunately stayed here 2 nights, amenities block disgraceful, swimming pool disgusting & no dump point. How can they charge $45.00/night, it is an absolute rip off. Would not recommend this place to anyone! Don't let the photos & write up fool you.

We stayed in an ensuite cabin in this caravan park just outside the town of Katherine. The caravan park appeared to be well set out with a nice pool area. It was also grassed and paved so it was not as dusty as usual! The cabin was well-used, but was quite comfortable with a small kitchenette and bathroom. The bedding felt a little grimy and dusty. There was a flat screen TV and good air-conditioning but no WiFi. This is a good option for a one-night stay in Katherine if you are travelling on a budget and have wheels!

This park is grassy, shady and quiet. It was a pleasure to stay here. The management is helpful. The sites are easy to access. The facilities have a code entry system. The lights and fans are on a timer. The switches are outside the bathroom. It pays to press the button before you enter. There is a limited amount of wine available for purchase.

Great park, well kept and organized, very clean. Large sites which are green, after weeks of orange dirt, this was very welcome change.
Amenities were immaculate, would definitely stay there again.
Site manager was very friendly and helpful.
Venders would drive around the park each arvo so you could buy local produce.

We stayed here in May, they double booked our site, granted they found us another one. We rang 5 days ago and booked here again for today and tomorrow, we checked in, paid our money and drove to our allocated spot, and yep there was someone in it, l asked the couple how long they were there for and they told me they had extended last night for another 4 days. So l went back to the office, they couldn't confirm these guests had extended and wouldn't, just carried on that they were sick of people telling them they had paid or extended, now newly arrived guests are inconvenienced and now with nowhere to go. I suggested they look at themselves and their booking system, got a refund and left. Think twice about booking here, be prepared to find something else at the last minute.
