Campsite by the Creek is situated in a quite area at the edges of Mount Elliot section, Bowling Green Bay National Park. Backing onto freshwater Alligator Creek. Located 28 km south of Townsville and 59 km north of Ayr, Spot by the Creek is only 2.6km off the Bruce Highway making it a very convenient stopover for a weary traveller. Encounter a variety of local wildlife. Listen for the birdcalls of kookaburras, flycatchers, honeyeaters and cuckoo-shrikes. Spot large jungle perch cruising in the creek or watch wallabies feeding on the grassy open spaces. Take nature walks, canoe and swim or just relax by the campfire with the cooling mountainous breeze. Great for self-sufficient travellers wanting to visit Bowling Green Bay National Park that have pets and want to camp by the fire. Spot by the Creek is a private property and is suitable for self-sufficient campers. There are no amenities, so you need to bring or hire your own. Dogs permitted, however please be mindful there are no fences. Also be mindful of neighbouring properties and abundant wildlife. Campfires permitted. Portable firepits preferable. Please extinguish fires completely before leaving. ***This is a quiet residential block, approx 2 acres*** ***Due to the nature of the site, it is ideal for caravaners looking for a quick stopover close to the Bruce Highway*** ***The ideal spot is located towards the rear of the block, which is closest to the freshwater creek down the embankment*** ***Fresh water creek included in land boundary*** ***Town water available onsite*** Please read the cancelation/credit policy as set and prescribed through the hipcamp platform.
