Great amenities block. Clean and tidy. Great choice of camp sites. Love the quiz on the shower door. Pity I could not answer it correctly.

Great hidden gem
We loved our stay at this camp site, truely a hidden gem of Darwin . The directions were clear and it was well maintained and looked after. We especially loved the welcome note on the shower block chalk board. The camp site is well secluded and there is even chopped fire wood waiting with an excellent fire pit /bbq on every site. The road is good and getting there is very easy and I highly recommend this spot. The river is a short walk from site and although we didn’t really do any fishing we did see a few Barra getting around at night so another added bonus if your looking for a quite of grid spot were you can have a flick minutes from your camp. The shower block and toilet was excellent and we definitely be back for another visit soon . Thank you again for having us!

A perfect getaway in the bush
WOW, Samson Creek is our new favourite local spot to get away. We enjoyed the close proximity to Darwin (1 hour) and the very easy access to camp sites. Amenities were #1 with hot/cold shower and flushing toilet. The seclusion is perfect and we bush walked the many tracks through the Savannah woodlands along the flowing creek and billabong.

Bush camping at its finest
Really enjoyed our stay here it was quite central for places like Dundee beach, berry springs and Litchfield which was great. We loved the outdoor shower/toilet block that was there it was spacious, clean and has made us want to invest in one :) We had a fire each night, we’re thankful for the firewood left there for us only thing we’d warn people about is the mozzies but just use bug spray and wear full length sleeves and you’ll be fine.

Nice quiet spot.
Was a great night. Quiet. Well maintained. Shower and toilet modern bush style. Fire place with BBQ was handy. Directions were great. Seemed to be that the host had supplied some firewood even tho we got a little on the way in. Water supplied to put your fire out properly. We got in early to set up then went exploring Wagiat Beach. We will visit again.
