Lotus Creek, Qld


Ratings: CP * Surroundings *


Lotus Creek.... the most isolated place we've stayed in!  An interesting overnight stop on the dry, western side of the Great Dividing Range where the caravan park / service station owner and his dog are the only permanent residents.  Ours was the only caravan and we had to hunt around for an electrical point that worked.  Mobile and internet services are non existent and the only deliveries made to Lotus Creek are fuel supplies.  All other supplies are brought in by the owner who must travel more than a total of 200 km to the nearest towns, either Sarina (north) or Rockhampton (south). Wide open skies, a stunning sunset and the quietness of night added to our memorable experience!


The sun begins to set over this dry land where no substantial rain has fallen for 3 years.
