About this campsite

Maggie Creek Rest Area is your serene overnight refuge nestled amidst the beauty of nature. Set against a scenic backdrop of stunning Boab trees and towering cliffs, it offers unparalleled opportunities for photography especially before sunset. However, as it becomes a haven for flying insects at night, visitors are advised to stay inside with screens when turning on the lights.

The Maggie Creek Rest Area is an idyllic spot renowned for its stunning sunset views over Boab trees and towering cliffs, offering the perfect backdrop for your travel photography. However, keep in mind that the terrain here is slightly rugged, posing a minor challenge to set up an overnighter. For those planning to stay after dusk, it’s important to note the area experiences a flurry of flying insects. Thus, it's recommended to relish the starry night from within a screened area if lights are on to ensure an enjoyable and hassle-free stay.
