Located at 1 Blue Bonnet Blvd, this caravan park is located at the end of the little town of Yowah – from here you can walk pretty much all around the town.

This is where we stayed while in Yowah and found it super comfortable.

Facilities at Artesian Waters Caravan Park
The Artesian Waters Caravan Park provides a range of facilities for guests to use to ensure their stay is comfortable which are listed below.
Artesian Baths
The star attraction at this caravan park is the artesian baths. These baths are completely free for guests of the caravan park to use.
Fill the baths with the hot artesian bore water and enjoy a soak under the blue sunny outback sky. Or wait until nightfall and have a soak under the gorgeous starry night sky. Some stalls feature double tubs so you can enjoy the experience with a mate.
Cleaning equipment is supplied and guests are required to clean down the tubs before and after use.
Camp Kitchen and Games Room
There is a fairly rustic outback style camp kitchen for guests to use, which includes everything you need to whip up some fancy meals. Amenities include a BBQ, microwave, stovetop, kettle, toaster – loads of bench space and tables and chairs.
Right next to the camp kitchen, there is also a games room, which includes a range of different board games guest can use, pool table and more.
Just outside there is also a fire pit.
Laundry
For those on the road for a while or having an extended stay at the caravan park, you’ll be pleased to know that there is also a laundry for guests to use. What’s more – it is completely free for guests to use!
Amenities
There is one large amenity block at Yowah, both with hot showers and toilets. While we stayed in the cabin, I did check the amenities and found them to be super spacious and clean.
General Store and Cafe
The Yowah Caravan Park also doubles as the towns only general store and petrol station. Here you will find a range of fruit, vegetables, meat and other basic grocery items you may need while in town.
If you happen to be in town on a Thursday night – this is also when you will find the restaurant open. Otherwise, head around the corner to Blue Wren for some food.
Artesian Waters Yowah Caravan Park – Our Verdict
We spent just the one night at the Artesian Waters Caravan Park in the fancy cabin with its very own private courtyard. The only problem we found with this cabin is we wished we had stayed longer to make the most of all its wonderful facilities. One night was just not enough time – but we were just passing through.
Yowah is a great little town and well worth a stopover if you have the time. Read this full guide on things to do in Thargomindah (which includes Yowah) here.
