We stayed at The Park, just as you are coming into Mackay from the south it is on your right, can't miss the signs, we stayed there for 7 months and had no problems, very well run...........

Boulder Creek, North of Mackay, is a terrific spot, check it out in "free/budget camp spots" on this forum.

Boulder creek is VERY popular. Backpackers have found it but I will call in maybe Wednesday next week. heaps of room at lake Elphinstone. Just a shame about the weather.

Thanks D. In Airlie at the moment. Everywhere is no go for free camping. Not a RV friendly place. :(
