Great cabins with plenty of space and a large bathroom. Close to town but far enough away to feel you are in the outback. Short drive to Katherine Gorge.

This place was fantastic. Very large lounge, kitchen, bedrooms and bathroom. I mostly enjoyed the attention to detail in the design - built in bedside lights for all beds, book shelf above the bed head, seperate toilet, shelf for suitcase, verandah with outside furniture and Full size fridge. The linen was great and beds comfy - would definitely stay again. It is a little exy, but you wont be disappointed. Thank you

Loved our stay here
This is a caravan and camping resort which also has self catering cabins. We stayed in an elevated 1 bedroom bungalow with a combined kitchen lounge area, seperate bedroom and spacious bathroom with shower. Kitchen was well equiped with large fridge freezer, cooktop and microwave. The table and chairs on the balcony made a perfect spot for relaxing with a drink and nibbles. Shaded parking was available under the cabin. The place was very clean and quiet situated about 5km from Katherine on the road to the gorge. The only negative was that the internet was a bit slow and intermittent but given the location that was hardly surprising. If we were in this area again we would definitely book in here.

Beats a motel room any day.
The elevated cabins are very good with plenty of separation between each one. Cooking facilities are minimal but it is only a "kitchenette". Nice camp/caravan park..

Perfect stay with all you need
Shady lane was very compact and tidy and had everything we needed for the trip. Very nice quiet and closer to the gorge. We had an amazing time. Check in was very smooth and it’s quiet and peaceful away yet close to everything. Will stay again when we visit Katherine.
