Explore the Top End from AAOK Lakes Resort & Caravan Park!
You can find the park in Berry Springs, on the outskirts of Darwin, beside a picturesque lake and pond. Coming to camp? Settle in for the night on a large, shady site. There are all sorts of options to find the campsite that’s right for you: powered or unpowered, grassed or slab, and drive-in/drive-out for the biggest vehicles of the bunch. You might even be able to camp right next to the fishpond. Well-behaved dogs are welcome to stay on sites, as long as they stay on a lead.
The park also has a variety of cabins and motel rooms. Sit back and relax on your outdoor setting to enjoy the peaceful natural surroundings, from the thriving birdlife to the nighttime bush noises. Family Cabins are a great choice for groups – sleeping four guests with shared amenities or six guests with a private ensuite – while affordable ensuite cabins make excellent budget accommodation for couple travellers. To upgrade your stay, the Lake House has a full bathroom, kitchen, washing machine, BBQ, large deck, and adjacent private area. (P.S. couples who also want to enjoy a water view can book the Lake Studio). As for motel-style accommodation, ensuite king or queen van rooms are also available. Plus, all accommodation is air-conditioned, so you can come back, feel fresh, and cool off in comfort.
Speaking of cooling off, the park has a swimming pool bordered by towering, tropical palm trees. More park facilities include communal fire pits, a gym, camp kitchen with free gas BBQs, snack/drink vending machine, fully tiled amenities block, laundry area, Wi-Fi, and dump point. In a park with so much open space, you can have a picnic by the pond, go bushwalking, or watch for local wildlife.
The location is a star feature. When you’re just 45 minutes south of Darwin, all the city’s attractions are within your reach. Litchfield National Park is also a 40-minute drive away, and you can get to Dundee Beach in an hour. That said, Berry Springs has lots going on close to home. The park is less than ten minutes’ drive from Territory Wildlife Park and Berry Springs Nature Park, where you can enjoy beautiful swimming holes all year round and native flowers in autumn. The Berry Springs Community Market kicks off on the last Sunday of each month (except December) from 8am to 12pm, or you can check out Barramundi Adventures Darwin.
At the end of a long, fulfilling day of travel, there’s nothing better than having a licensed bistro on site for easy and tasty meals. Their seasonal restaurant offers alfresco dining out on the deck, overlooking incredible Top End sunsets, and ice-cold bevvies from the bar. Grab yourself a table for Sunday Roast Nights or be there at 5–6pm, Monday to Saturday for Happy Hour.
If you’re craving a feel-good getaway, you’re bound to have a very merry time in Berry Springs. Book your stay at AAOK Lakes Resort & Caravan Park today, then soak up the serenity of the beautiful Top End.
