Qld - Lawn Hill National Park



We stayed at the National Park camp ground at Lawn Hill. The sites are all on dirt or rocks with a few trees and bushes for shade. The trees are quite small at the moment so we hope in a few years they will have grown and there will be more shade. While we were here in August the temperature was between 35 - 37 degrees every day so every bit of shade was crucial.
The amenities block is new with cold showers and toilets. Lovely and clean.
When you book here make sure that you call the National Parks direct. Adels Grove always seem to tell people that the park is full when there are still sites available. I think they want you to stay at their camp area.
Some of the road into Adels Grove is corrugated and rather rough so we were glad that we decided to leave our van behind. There are no vans permitted at Lawn Hill.
The National Park is $10.00 per night and Adels Grove is $28.00 for an unpowered site.
Adels Grove is shady, has a restaurant, small shop, but it is 10 kilometes to the park.
If we go back I would definitely stay at Lawn Hill again as you can just walk a few steps and you can be swimming.
