Bindarah Downs Bush Camp

Group camping at Easter

We had a great Easter getaway at Bindarah Downs. Shayne was detailed with his directions and met us at the gates. He gave us a great run through of his property on arrival. Our group of three families set up on the lower level, it was a beautiful tranquil spot, very green and shaded and right beside the beautiful babbling creek. The children could play and explore in the creek in full view from camp. They all enjoyed playing in the mud and finding hidden treasures. A great 4 nights had by all and we look forward to visiting Bindarah Downs again.

Easter long weekend.

Amazing little part of the Scenic Rim tucked away with lots of privacy. Shayne and Kim were very friendly and so helpful. Creek was flowing and very refreshing. Best part we could get set up as early as 8am to have a full day and not leave til 4pm - set up and pack up days weren’t wasted.

Bindarah Downs Bush Camp

Beautiful property and access to the creek which was great for our toddlers. Shayne & Kim were great hosts. There is not service here but that’s also what makes it special in our opinion. They have tree swings close to some camp sites which we had easy access to and our 3 year old loved it. The only thing worth mentioning was our site was close to the highway and you could hear the traffic but it didn’t bother us really. We would recommend this site to all.
