One Mile Waterhole is a beautiful camp where you can enjoy the serenity completely alone. Easy access made it especially enjoyable and our hosts were very friendly.

This was a beautiful and very private camp. In the middle of nowhere really, but beautiful. It is 110km south of Mitchel so allow that time to get there. Road was dirt and bituman but all in good condition.
Thank you to Walter and Christine for your hospitality.
