My preference would be Cullyamurra Waterhole. About 14km out of town but lots of great waterview sites.

I have stayed at cullyamurra waterhole and the town common, My preference now would be the town common as it is within walking distance to the Trading Post and the Pub. From this campsite you can visit the Dig Tree and all the other significant sites whithout having to drag the van around. While you are there do not miss the Sunday Night roast at the pub. Great meal with that bush atmosphere.

Any of the places mentioned are great, although I would say that I find Ski Beach / Policeman's Waterhole my preference.

Darryl,

The Town Common is the place that I always camp.
Not far from the town, you are on the Cooper Creek and the afternoon river Cruise is very good if you are into bird life and history of the area.

The Pub is going to be rebuilt. I am not sure when it will be done but hopefully it will be finished before May next year.

Yep - love the Cooper - Ski, Policemans, Cully are all good - the main issue is water levels I suppose - the Cully is never very low - its deep and long and you can only cross on foot at the ends - if the water is down a bit - you can often jump across in various places down by Ski etc - we are into walking, so this matters to us.

Hi Darryl

Just got back from Innamincka and found that all of the camping areas are ok.

We stayed at Ski Beach because it had better shade and access to the Creek.

Regards Wayne

Thanks all for your replies - at least it sounds like there are no dud places of those listed. Will check out the waterhole as well.

Cheers

Just check passes.
I think the town common doesn't require a SA desert parks pass, while the other camp sites do.
Sometimes if we are just travelling through and stopping for a couple of days we camp at the common. Saves organising a pass.

Others might have more info. Been a while since I checked it.

Three times I've been through have been school hols. Found the Town Common very crowded the first time and camped at Cullymurra Waterhole the other two times and found it great with not too many people. Never tried Policeman's or Ski Beach.

Hi Dazmit,

If you are there for few days, take a run out to Congie Lakes for part of the time. Not sure what the water level will be like, depends on rain and this year has been a shocker in the country around the desert.
