Spear Creek is located 25 kilometres south-east of Port Augusta, only 12km off Highway 1. Our eastern boundary follows the summit of the ranges north from Horrocks Pass, with walking trails through deep gorges to range top views of upper Spencer Gulf. The Holiday park is nestled amongst 600 year old river red gums adjacent to the ranges. You may meet any of the three different species of kangaroos, echidnas, or 85 species of birds including wedge-tail eagles and peregrine falcons who call Spear Creek home.

1 night at Spear Creek Holiday Park

We had a fantastic stay at Spear Creek Holiday Park. The land is stunning, with views of the Southern Flinders Ranges. Our caravan site came with water and power, which made things super comfortable. The barista coffee cart, run by the lovely Anna, was a morning highlight (Melbourne coffee snob approved). We also picked up lamb from their farm as well as wine from the kiosk, which was stocked with essentials like milk and marshmallows—things we definitely would have needed if we’d stayed longer. Evenings around the fire pits were a perfect way to unwind. A great mix of outback adventure and creature comforts.

Long drive to get to the camp but well worth it, the campsite was surrounded by trees, hills to climb, amazing sunsets and friendly staff. It was clean, spacious and dogs had a great long walk along the trails. I felt like I was at a bush camp but with showers, power, a little kiosk and a coffee van.

Lovely peaceful bush camping but with the benefits of power, water, ammenities and a good selection of their produce as you check in. We tried the lamb chops, sausages and wine. Highly recommend the food, wine and location. Several walks to choose from and fire pits to enjoy!

Wow, what a great secluded property nestled amongst the hills of the Mt Brown Conservation Park. A great variety of campsites available with or without power. The Bush camp was well out of the way and very private. Amenities were adequate and clean. Staff were all friendly and they make an excellent coffee at the kiosk in the morning. A great place if your looking for some peace and quiet. Highly recommended. Will stay again.

Wow just wow!! Such a stunning drive to camp and once we arrived at camp it was just beautiful. Staff so helpful friendly and polite The only downside was we had only booked for one night travelling back to Adelaide from Eyre Peninsula. We will definitely be booking to go again soon for longer! We bought some lamb to take home with us which we had last night and it was great, so tasty!
