Best in the area from our experience, Buronga Riverside  Caravan Park. Closest to the Mildura CBD  although it is just across the Chaffey Bridge 2 Kms from centre. FPA site

immaculate facilities, on the riverbank, pet friendly, great people. Hopefully there ourselves on monday for a few days.

Agree with Chris

A few years ago we came in from the bush for a couple of days to do the washing and top up the pantry.

Stayed at Buronga CP (http://www.burongacaravanpark.com.au/). It was off peak and we had a near riverside site. Enjoyed the Park and surrounds such that we ended up staying for a week.

Certainly recommend based on our experience

If you're thinking of going further afield from Mildura I can suggest Renmark, I enjoyed my stay there last month. I stayed in Mildura a few years ago and liked it too. Both nice places.
