Want to save! Book direct via our website. Charleys Creek Campgrounds, Chinchilla (previously known as Clover Hill Camping) is a unique campground right on Chinchilla’s doorstep. Set on 35 acres on the banks of Charley Creek, it has a beautiful bush land setting adjacent to the creek. A truly tranquil experience. Recently rebranded the name to Charleys Creek Campgrounds as it is more fitting, as there is no clover, not much of a hill, and not in America (Ranch). This will also tie in with our other entities - Charleys Creek Beef and Charleys Creek Brewing. We have a number of projects on the go and planned for the Charleys Creek entities to make every stay a unique and authentic experience. "Not just a campgrounds, its the experience". You are welcome to visit us, get to know us, and be part of our journey. This campground offers toilets, showers, access to potable water, and power hook ups. Open fire pits, and fire wood available. It is a dog friendly property. The story of Clover Hill Ranch- In 2019 our livestock enterprise was struggling with the ongoing drought. Water was getting very low and we were buying hay from Victoria. One day while checking stock on our grazing property Bradys (adjacent to Clover Hill Ranch) we looked across the near dry creek and said to each other - if we are going to endure this drought we need to do something different. So we were able to acquire Clover Hill Ranch which was then being run by the CMCA under a lease agreement to the then owners. Then Covid struck and the CMCA left Clover Hill Ranch. So we took it on ourselves and it has been a journey managing our four farming blocks Riverleigh; Coleridge; The Shanti and Bradys as well as Clover Hill Ranch. Fast forward and it is now April 2021 we absolutely love it; enjoy chatting with Campers about our story and we have even organised a Farm Tour route through all of our properties. The feedback has been amazing. We are continuously doing improvements to Clover Hill Ranch with many new Powered Sites with town water and new campsites right on the creek. And everyone loves it when we bring out our trailer mounted meat smoker to put on a smoked Wagyu feast! Campers can purchase our Wagyu and Grassfed Angus beef to try while camping and can even buy some to take home. Activities available at Charleys Creek Campgrounds, Chinchilla: include camping; fishing; kayaking; motorbike riding; bird watching and bush walking. There is accessibility for RVs, camper trailers, caravans and big rigs. Pull through bays available. Camping in tents is allowed. It is walking distance to Chinchilla town centre and Lions playground. Farm tours available upon request. Bookings preferable in advance to avoid disappointment.

251109 - Being fully self-contained we chose a 'non-powered site' adjacent to the creek located away from all the powered sites to which there appeared to be plenty. Privacy is guaranteed with very easy level access for large rigs (we have a 24foot van plus a LC200) and we still had heaps of room to spare. Whilst we could only 'just' see our neighbours through all the trees of this well maintained property, in the far distance, we could not hear a thing. There are some amazing and very clean amenities. Great showers, toilets and laundry with a great family owned and operated private distillery on the property up at big shed that also accommodates saturday night entertainment and a cookout, worth the visit. Located not far from the centre of the Chinchilla township that is fully serviced with all the essential 'go to's for grocery, hardware, pubs etc etc you would not be short of finding what you are looking for. Don't forget to visit the Large Watermellon' slice so you can take your photo. It's a must do. Enjoy, have fun.

Weekend Trip to Columboola Country Veterans Retreat

We loved our stay in our caravan at Colins veterans retreat. The signage made it easy to find and meeting Colin to check in was a pleasure. Large sites to choose from and the amenities were clean and tidy. Site 1 had the view over the watering hole, spacious, peaceful and private. Highly recommend and will return one day.

We enjoyed our stay in a cabin that overlooked a bushy small gorge. The cabin was well appointed, the beds were comfortable and the showers in the facilities were great. The peaceful ambience of the property was well worth the dirt road drive entrance.

Beautiful spot by river yet so close to town. Downside is there is a lot of road noise. Map directions were totally off so don’t follow them - use the hosts written directions instead.

Lovely property to camp on! There was plenty of space to put up our tents, shade from trees, firewood to pick from, and very kind hosts. We went for a kyack and swim in their swimming hole. It was a good spot to get into a green space and relax.

My Father and I had a great weekend in the bush. Camping here, we had plenty of space to spread out and a beautiful view of the waterhole. Colin was very friendly and helpful and it was nice to meet Chuck and Rocky, his dogs. The toilet and shower block was very clean and he also has ice when you need to top up the esky. Highly recommend a visit and we will be back.

We loved camping on Julia's land. Bush walks, swimming in the dam and sitting by the fire. This was out best bush camp ever, middle of nowhere so much quiet. 8 days of peace and quiet was amazing. The fact that we only shared the space with the cows was just what we needed.
