About 87km East of Marla on the Oodnadatta Track a small track leads NW a short way to the creek. This is a largish waterhole so will have water for a long while after rains. The habitat is quite good along the creekline despite the cattle having access to the waterhole.

Camp rating 7 by the creek on the north bank is a small site, there are no facilities.
