The Creek Retreat
We spent four blissful nights camping on a peaceful farm beside a stunning creek in Finch Hatton, and it was absolute magic. The setting was serene and secluded—just two camper spots allowed at a time, which meant we had plenty of space and privacy to unwind with our friends (two caravans total). Nature put on a show for us every day: we spotted platypus gliding through the water, vibrant blue butterflies fluttering by, fireflies twinkling at dusk, and turtles and fish in the creek. It felt like our own private wildlife sanctuary. One of the highlights was the beautiful deck overlooking the water, complete with a comfy hammock—perfect for lazy afternoons and soaking in the view. The host also provides four kayaks and four floating mats, which made exploring the creek even more fun and relaxing. Our dogs loved it too—they could roam off-leash without worry, and we never had to stress about other campers being too close. The whole experience was incredibly peaceful and rejuvenating. Highly recommend this slice of paradise to anyone looking for tranquility, nature, and a truly special camping experience.
