The creek of the same name rises in Carnarvon Park and then flows through neighbouring Wealwandangie entering the locality of Cona Creek from the south-east and then flows through the locality to exit in the north-west (Lochington/Minerva).[3]
The Dawson Developmental Road passes through the locality from north (Minerva) to west (Nandowrie).[3]
Historyedit
The locality presumably takes its name from the creek, which in turn is an Aboriginal word meaning mud.[4]
In the 2016 census, Cona Creek had a population of 83 people.[5]
Educationedit
There are no schools in Cona Creek, but neighboroughing Springsure has primary schooling and secondary schooling to Year 10. For secondary schooling to Year 12, the closest school is in Emerald.[3]
