A farming family in Central Queensland have rebuilt and restored a community hub at Lotus Creek, which was wiped out by Cyclone Debbie in The old service station had been closed for almost five years, leaving the local community and travelers passing through without fuel and important services on the Marlborough and Sarina Rd. Lotus Creek is km north west of Rockhampton and km south west of Mackay. Looking to fill the gap, the closure of the old service station dealt the local community, third generation graziers David and Lynda Kemp and their family at Lotus Park, purchased the Lotus Creek Tourist Park in early The Kemps have since transformed the old service station, trucking in two old buildings to form, The Homestead at Lotus Creek. Emma Kotrba, daughter of David and Lynda Kemp, said the family are excited to bring some life back to the stretch of road. Steve Hart, son-in-law to the David and Lynda Kemp, said the old service station was an important service hub between the north and south, when the coastal highway didn't exist. Mr Hart said the philosophy behind 'The Homestead at Lotus Park' it is to have somewhere for everyone in the community to gather but also to attract victors to the region. We weren't sure whether it'd be a viable thing but the whole community got behind it. In mid , the Kemps started renovating the buildings and then it took almost two years to complete it. Mr Hart said the family has received a lot of positive feedback to the homestead and have been inundated with bookings. Last Saturday, the owners invited the community and those involved in The homestead to celebrate the work achieved over the past two years. Lindsay and Jen Hart manage the restaurant and front of house. Mr Hart said It's been a huge encouragement to chat with the community and know that The Homestead will be valued.

A fantastic place to stay. We had a very large family gathering. We used powdered sites, un-powered sites, on-site vans and on-site cabins. The setting and amenities are excellent.
