What’s at Gum Creek? Gum
Creek is the home of Bill & Jane McIntosh. Bill has lived there all
his life and his family before him. He and Jane have lived on Gum Creek
all of their married life. Over the years they have developed their
shearer’s quarters in order to accommodate tourists and groups such as
ours. The Eco-spirituality program has used Gum Creek Station each year
for the past eleven years. Each room has two beds [two have double bunks but
we won’t be using the top bunks!] with a good mattress on each. 240 volt
power [solar batteries], gas hot water [hot showers], an excellent kitchen
with two fridges and a large gas range. The dining room living area has a
large slow combustion stove for heating and there are excellent Bar-B-Q
facilities on site. Toilets are all “under the same roof”. At the rear
of the quarters [fronting onto the creek] there is a patio and lawned
area. The whole place is very well set up.
