Palmer River Roadhouse

Palmer River Roadhouse is a practical stop on the Mulligan Highway near Lakeland in far north Queensland, well suited to travellers breaking up a long drive through this remote part of the state. The stay mix is simple, with powered and unpowered sites for caravans and campers, making it an easy overnight or short stopover base on a longer touring run.

A nearby boat ramp adds appeal for travellers heading out on the water, while campfires are allowed for a more relaxed evening once you have pulled up for the day. This is a straightforward roadside stay for self-contained travellers who want a handy base between driving days in a sparsely serviced stretch of country.
