Bindarah Downs Bush Camp

We only stayed a night, however, it was at a lovely spot right beside the creek. There isn’t any mobile coverage (we’re with Telstra) which would limit us to stay longer since we do need to access emails. The hosts made us aware of this before booking so it didn’t matter for just one night. If you’re looking for a full disconnect from the outside world then this is definitely the place to stay! 🌿

Great place. Clean, beautiful, and of easy access. Close to the road, any car can make it. The creek is lovely, and the rest of the property, outside the camping area, has heaps of animals (cows, horses, and lovely house dogs). Shayne and Kim are great welcoming hosts, I definitely recommend it

Weekend getaway

Overall a great weekend Shayne was very friendly and accommodating. Large clean camping sites with adequate privacy. Plenty of room for the kids probably our only negative would be hearing the odd car along the road.

Cracking spot

Cracking spot - amazing hosts - might not say too much as we don’t want all Hipcampers to arrive …. Enough said !

Picture perfect, peaceful haven

Would recommend this gorgeous, scenic spot - stunning views! Such a peaceful place to relax and enjoy nature at its best. Shayne was a great bloke, and really takes pride in greeting his guests to inform and assist their stay Pitches to suit all - on a scorching late Winters weekend, I was so grateful for a Creekside shady spot to chill out.
