From the twownship of Batchelor travel on Rum Jungle Rd 9km NW towards Litchfield NP, Poett Rd heads SE to the lake. The site is at the end of Poett Rd. There is a toilet here. There’s generally not much on the lake, but there’s a good ring of trees around the lake with some other patches of habitat here, in particular the overflow at the far end of the lake, mind the mozzies here.

No camping is allowed here
