We found this little gem while looking on the internet. Their website www.sandycreekcampin.com.au provides simple driving instructions. We'd recommend arriving during the daylight hours, if possible, as the final few kilometres are over unsealed roads. The recent QLD floods have resulted in some crossings requiring repair and caution should be taken when crossing.
We arrived about 4.30pm on the Friday afternoon and Brian (the owner) was already enjoying 'Happy Hour'. Some friends had arrived around lunchtime and secured a number of sites adjacent to the creek. There are no designated sites, so, the best sites are taken on a first-come, first-served basis.
Most sites are very level. Some near the toilets would not be suitable for vans and camper trailers. Fires are permitted and firepits are scattered across the campground. Wood can also be purchased and Brian will deliver and unload for you. Showers and toilets are basic, but, hot showers are always appreciated.
In summer, this would be a great place to cool down as the creek is very shaded and shallow. Lots of places for the kids to explore. On Sunday, the owners personally delivered the Sunday paper to all campsites! Please note that there are no rubbish facilities, so you need to take everything home with you.
Dogs are allowed (on leash). Overall, a lovely relaxing weekend with our friends.
