Sowell Creek is a wonderful place to camp, we frequently camp there due to it being a quiet place to get away with some really beautiful sunsets and sunrises! I recommend this place to anyone that is looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city!

Caught some pretty nice sized fish from the bank. Most were carp but fighters and fun to catch. We also done some bike riding. Great place to camp.
