Creature comforts
Enjoy the comforts of home—including flush toilets, showers, and a kitchen.
On 200 hectares, just 30 minutes drive from Alice Springs, Ooraminna is a place to feel grounded within the rugged beauty, vast landscapes, and tranquility of Central Australia. This is Arrernte Country, where for tens of thousands of years there have been continuous, culturally rich connections to its deserts, springs and mountain ranges. Over a century ago, Deep Well Station cattle began grazing the land, and in the 1980’s Ooraminna Homestead was imagined as a film set to bring legendary Aussie tales to life. Today, Ooraminna’s vision is to provide a place where the remarkable environment is protected and visitors feel a sense of belonging amongst the ancient bushlands. Trails lead to a spectacular lookout and a life-giving billabong. Secluded cabins sit shadowed by red rock outcrops, and campsites are circled by blue mallee gums. Cooling off in the swimming pool as the sun sets is a stunning way to end the day. Experiences at Ooraminna invite connections with people, place and nature. Escape into the wild, feel the rhythms of the red earth, and stay immersed in an untamed wilderness beneath starry desert skies.

Incredible campsite. The couple on site that manage it are so helpful, lovely and friendly! The property itself is gorgeous and well maintained. The camping amenities clean and tidy. Hot showers, flushable toilets. Communal area is also so clean and cozy! The communal bbq and pool are beautiful. I highly recommend this campsite. Every part of the property has a lot of thought into it, it’s amazing to just walk around!
