This is first visit to Flinders Ranges National Park since we came to Adelaide. My purpose in Australia is research. We came here for holidays. There are rich of nature. We could meet wild kangaroo and emu! We deeply impressed with such beautiful view because Japan is small country. Thank you for this precious experience!

Wow what a place to stay 'Willow Springs.' We camped here a month ago and enjoyed the secluded camps with the great camp kitchen. This time we provided a stay here in the homestead along with 4 other guests for a photography Tour we were running in the Flinders Ranges. The Station provides that rustic, homey, outback station feel that our guests and us enjoy. A good base to come and go and relax at the end of the day after many long hours of photography. Thank you Michelle, Carmel & Brendan for the stay, the facilities here are awesome and we are sure to let others know of 'Willow Springs.'

Finally I have found a place that is out of access of data/internet. Thank god for giving some wonderful time to really quiet down my life and enjoy the beautiful scenery around in Flinders Ranges! Thanks Willow Springs, especially Michelle, for organising a quiet and tidy place to stay! Good information for a good dinner and next journey to see the wonders of nature.

Once again we have returned to this beautiful station. We have walked many miles through the Australian landscape, camped in many wonderous places, but our hearts draw us back to Willow Springs. Thank you to the Reynolds family opening their home and sharing with us.

Coming from New Zealand, the back country experience here is very different, it appears so arid and barren, yet with a bit more information we find there is a surprising amount of nature's walks in and around the Park, and we enjoyed Willow Springs own walking trail. Carmel was very friendly, helpful and informative and we found our accommodations quite comfortable. We enjoyed a trip up to Blinman and the mine experience and Sacred Canyon, Wilkawillina Gorge, as well as in and around Wilpena. The Old Wilpena Homestead walk was disappointingly neglected. It could be so much better.

It's far from France, but so beautiful that we come back. Stay at Willow Springs Station was a great pleasure, the welcome of Michelle... this country is very beautiful with so many colours, animals, sunsets, sunrises and so on.

​Thank you for a lovely stay in the Overseers Cottage. We loved visiting the Flinders National Park, reading about the history of Willow Springs and getting to understand what life must be like out here. The starry nights were beautiful too.

​We really enjoyed staying at the Overseers Cottage and had a great time hiking around this area, including Wilpena Pound and Yakka Lookout. Also, it was a pleasant time to relax without any distractions. That's what we needed.

​A wonderful time was had by all the family. Cottages and campers alike. From the visits of the horses to feeding the chooks and cooing at the kid goats, as well as a relaxed and stimulating environment Willow Springs will always be remembered fondly.

​Thank you for the use of your beautiful Homestead and your help with local information and your friendliness. We did enjoy our walks despite the drought. Hopefully you will get rain soon. The emu chicks are more plentiful than we have ever seen.

​This place was highly recommended by a polish friend and we had to promise him to go and stay at Skytrek. We travel with my sister and it is the most magnificent place to stay in the Flinders Ranges. We gazed every night at the stars and loved the sweet coloured sunset. The animals around here are so enjoyable to observe them in their bush. Our cottage had everything, it is so clean, cosy and warm welcoming. We love this place and will highly recommend it.

​"Home" is a word that we associate with somewhere we belong to - we found ourselves referring to this place as "home" these past six days. We chose Willow Springs as an extended stop on our 21 day Outback Safari, and WOW! We are so thankful we did! The sanctuary of the peaceful surroundings have made this short time a much needed time of rest for us. Facing terminal illness and reflecting on how we are spending each day has meant that we wake each day with deep gratitude and joy. We have been drawing encouragement during this difficult season from the well known scripture verses in Isaiah 40:28-31, the final verse being made so visually real to us when we were greeted by the eagles wing and wedge tail eagles on our entry - "those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength, they will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weak, the will walk and not be faint." Thank you for enriching our journey and providing us with the opportunity to find refreshment. Deep Thanks.
