Christmas Creek Recreation Centre

Your hosts welcome and thank you for your interest in our outdoor recreational facility the Christmas Creek Recreation Camp.

Relax and enjoy the natural beauty of Christmas Creek Recreation Centre with its spectacular mountain views, natural rock pools and abundant native wildlife.
Wake up to the low drone and constant murmur of the babbling creek, delicately frolicking in the background; peppered with the whip crack cry of the Eastern Whip-bird, the repeated cries of the Crimson Rosella and the enchanting voice of the Golden Whistler.
Delight in the often heard melodies and warbles of the native bird-life surrounding the centre. Be quick to spot the shy and reclusive Brush-tailed Rock Wallaby nearby.

We are committed to making our venture work with clean and comfortable facilities, a diverse range of activities to keep everyone occupied, lashings of nourishing meals and good old fashioned home cooking. ... [+] More
