Muloorina Station, located fifty-four kilometres northwest of Marree and one hundred and fifty-six kilometres west of William Creek, is nestled on the edge of Lake Eyre. It operates as a cattle station and is also a formal bounded locality in South Australia. The name and boundaries of the locality were officially established on 26th April 2013, reflecting the long-standing local name.

Owned and operated by Trevor and Cindy Mitchell, Muloorina has been in the same family since 1936. The Mitchell family has continually worked to improve the standard of their certified organic Poll Hereford cattle using bulls from West Coast and mid-North studs. Trevor and Cindy involve their children in the decision-making process of running Muloorina, fostering a sense of continuity for the future.

The station occupies an area of four thousand square kilometres and operates both sheep and cattle. The property is managed with a keen eye on the weather, preparing for potential droughts and considering any rainfall as a significant bonus.

Accommodation at Muloorina is homestead-style, consisting of two fully equipped houses that can accommodate up to six people each. The shearing quarters feature eight twin-share rooms, large toilet and shower facilities, a fully equipped kitchen, dining room, and BBQ Area.

The camping grounds are situated on Frome Creek, two kilometres from the homestead along a bored water hole. The site includes toilets and picnic tables. Waking up each morning to the songs of over a hundred different bird species is a blissful experience. An honesty box is set up on the campground for a small fee, and no booking is required for camping.

Muloorina Station is now offering luxury self-accommodation with two 2-bedroom units. At night, guests can sit on the deck or relax in the hot tub overlooking Clayton Creek, taking in the spectacular sunset. The station provides a unique opportunity to disconnect from the high-tech distractions of modern city life and immerse oneself in the tranquillity of the outback.
