We spent 4 nights at Willow Springs and loved every minute! The information sent prior to arrival is excellent and ensures you are well prepared for your stay! We were camping in Horse Yard #3 site It had an immaculately clean porta loo and the site had been raked and cleaned before we arrived! An excellent fire pit is provided with cooking plate. The amenities are wonderful and very clean!, there is free wifi at the camp kitchen. We drove Skytreck and loved the day, you are provided with a map and it corresponds to numbers along the drive with lots of information about flora, fauna, geology and historic information. The last 3rd of the drive is challenging, exhilarating and probably 9/10 in terms of red tracks - we loved it and our Ford Ranger did it with ease! The view is stunning! We had a rest day doing washing and reading and relaxing while we were there, the local birds kept us entertained and we did a couple of the recommended walks around the station. We will be back! Thanks very much to the Reynolds family and staff…

We visited Willow Springs and were very impressed with the beauty of the place. The staff were friendly and our campsite was nicely raked before we arrived. We did Skytrek drive and that was spectacular although the wife said she needed a stiff drink after. It is a great spot and highly recommended.

Thank you for your kind review - we are so pleased you enjoyed your time at Skytrek Willow Springs Station. We offer a variety of accommodation and camping experiences and its always lovely to know that a guest has truly appreciated the effort we have put in to make their stay an enjoyable one. Skytrek Self-Drive 4WD track can be a long day and offers an unforgettable journey - for some its scenic, for others its about the challenge, but we agree with your wife.. a stiff drink at the end of the day doesn't go astray! We wish you all the best for your future travels.

I would highly recommend a stay at Willow Station. The staff were all incredibly friendly and very helpful with some great tips and recommendations on what to explore in the local area. The Skytrek trip is a must do for anyone with a 4WD. Our stay here was one of the key highlights of our holiday.

We camped here at Horseyards 2. It was a beautiful campsite, very private and scenic with its own toilet, picnic table and outside fire area. We felt like we were the only ones around even though within 300m the station was. The facilities are great - awesome shower block and laundry. I went on a few of the walks and they were great too. It’s a quiet place but close to all of the beautiful places in Flinders ranges including Wilpena pound, Brachina and Bunyeroo gorges, Bilman etc. The owners are great too and it was a very easy check in. Very recommended and we would love to stay again.

Thank you for your kind review - we are so pleased you enjoyed your time on the station. Skytrek is a diverse experience offering unique challenges for all those who take it on. An alternative exit provides comfort to those less experienced and allows people an understanding of station life and 'off-roading' within their limits. We wish you all the best for your future travels.

An amazing place to stay. The secluded campsites are wonderful. Fabulous facilities: showers, toilets and camp kitchen all excellent. Pack your nerves of steel for the SkyTreck though. Make sure your low range is functioning.

We stayed in the Stockmans Lodge which, despite its name, in 4 years old. Superbly equipped with two bedrooms with king beds and separate ensuites. Magnificent fire place. Great views. Nice BBQ. The highlight was the 12km walk around the property. Close to the Pound. Fabulous views from Stoke Hill. Wifi is occasionally available from the Lodge but usually you have to walk 200 m to a shared kitchen to access

Great campsite near the creek. Our bush site was supplied with its own portable toilet with hand basin. Good to see some Flinders Ranges station country via their 80km Skytrek 4WD track. The ochre cliffs were a highlight.

A great location as a base to do Skytrek as well as other drives to Parachilna, Brachina Gorge and Bunyaroo Gorge. As long as you are well stocked and well prepared you will have a great time. The Skytrek 4 WD track is 80 km and a true test of your vehicle and your skills. Facilities were great and staff excellent- always willing to help out and assist.
