    Bindarah Downs offers easy access to our 4 acres and 3 levels of open and shaded, creek frontage. Only 15 mins from Rathdowney, close to Maroon Dam and several National Parks. Each site accommodates one set-up; e.g. one caravan, one motorhome, one camper trailer etc. Please make a separate booking if you have multiple camping set-ups. The creek offers campers cool waterholes to swim in on a hot day and picnic tables to enjoy your meals.

    Lower level camp beside the creek.
    16 ft travel trailer
    Was tranquil listening to the running creek right by our camp site on the lower level. Nice & shady. 3 sites spaced apart for privacy. The grounds were immaculate and the owners lovely and informative and directions were easy. No mobile reception with optus but was nice & relaxing to be offgrid.
