Creek and Antique Camping

My family and I had a great time at creek and antique camping. On arrival we meet Sue who was lovely there were a lot of campers and caravans as it was a busy weekend and much to our surprise sue had a spot picked out for us that was away from the rest of the campers and we couldn't believe how beautiful and peaceful our little camping spot was. Right next to Creek and the swimming hole only a short walk away. I've been to a few hip camps in the last 4 year and some are hit and miss with creek and antique camping this is not the case you could see Terry and Sue really enjoy having ppl stay and the effort they go to is amazing, toilets and camp grounds were spotless. What an amazing weekend we had and we'll definitely be back. I forgot to mention kids stay free, how good is that.

Creek and Antique Camping

Hidden paradise

This is a hidden gem and won’t stay like that unfortunately. This place is a beautiful river campsite setting with ease for parking, swimming, walking and resting. One of the best van sites with flushing toilets on the coast. No showers but the river is clean and flowing. If you have your own setup for showers, you will love this site. Free use of ski paddles and canoes are great and fire places are plentiful. Heaps of space to relax. Large vehicles and vans get in easy. Would recommend 4WD when pulling van through entry creek bed. Once in, paradise !
