Neurum Creek, Woodford

Neurum Creek is a great place for a quick getaway as it's just an hour north of Brisbane.

Heading up Friday afternoon straight after School, we setup and spent the coldest night in our campers short history.

Every blanket available including the car cover were taken in our attempt to keep warm. Just over four degrees!

On Saturday some friends joined us for the day. Bush walk with the kids, campfire dinner and sparklers before our guests departed. Cloud cover ensured we spent a much more comfortable night in the camper.

There's a limited number of powered sites which are normally booked by larger caravans with all the modern conveniences. Hot Showers are fantastic but the 'drop' toilets are not a favourite. There's a variety of open grass or more private tree-lined sites. Being winter, we prefer the open sunny sites.

On Sunday the 'Coffee Van' arrived and you can buy the Sunday paper. The bike track has all-but been destroyed by the January floods (see our recent post), but, we could see that the campground (and possibly Main Roads) are undertaking some major reconstruction work between the flood way and the park entry.

Neurum Creek are very organised and their website is constantly updated with their upcoming activities.
