Your own totally private stretch of the Noosa river system in four acres of wilderness bush, five minutes to Noosaville. Long river frontages on two sides, state park with a patch of rain forest on the third side and long bush drive in on the fourth side. A covered deck high in the trees looks down on the river. Kookaburras and magpies like sitting on the deck rail and mullet jump in the river below. A kangaroo family are valued lawnmowers.
The house is open-plan with a deck in the trees looking down on the river. Children really love this riverfront property. Fish, crab and kayak directly from the house, in a very private and wilderness like setting. We provide 7, kayaks and life jackets. These provide a truly wilderness-like paddling experience. Paddle down the river to Lake Cooroibah, and try some estuary fishing. Or take a tinny (outboard) from the house down the river to Tewantin or Noosa for breakfast (we provide the kayaks, you provide the tinny). We also provide fishing gear and crab pots.
Comfortable lounges on the ultra-large tree level deck look down on the river. Breakfast with the fish jumping and the birds singing (but please don't feed the friendly kookaburras!). Kangaroos, kookaburras, water monitors and bush turkeys reside in the state forest surrounding the property.
The house and deck are fully accessible without ascending steps and the shower in the main bathroom is wheel chair friendly.
There are sweeping lawns down to the river and towering original growth eucalypts. Paperbarks line the river bank.
Families love to sit around the firepit by the river, cooking snags under the stars and listening to the fish splashing.May be the kids have a line in the river (fishing gear provided).
Then, in case you are thinking that life couldn't get much better, it is just seven minutes to the amazing choice of restaurants along the Noosa River on Gympie Terrace (Noosaville), 15 minutes (off peak) to Hastings Street fashion shopping, renowned restaurants and Noosa's iconic main beach and surfing (be warned, parking at Hastings Street is difficult but the Noosa Council provides free buses).
Enjoy truly memorable day trips to Fraser Island in 4WD buses, or take your own 4wd up the North Shore beach to Fraser Island, with a fish in the surf on the way. The Tewantin car ferry across the Noosa River to the North Shore is five minutes away.
Other nearby attractions include the beautiful Noosa River Everglades by launch, Aussie World, UnderWater World and internationally-renowned Australia Zoo. Eumundi markets are nearby (Wednesday and Saturday) as is Noosa's equally popular Sunday morning market. Noosa has a network of scenic walking trails in the Noosa National Park (15 minutes away) and the Cooloolah National Park (along the North Shore and fifteen minutes away).
A separate and privately located granny flat on the same 4 acres can also be added for $120/night (off season price) plus cleaning. This boosts adult accommodation to 8. The granny flat is light, spacious and airy and lets you holiday with your friends/relatives, but with separate and more private living spaces. It comprises three rooms with en suite, stove, air fryer, dishwasher, tv, washing machine and its own huge deck overlooking another branch of the river. This is popular with friends wanting to holiday together but keep their own private living space or parents retreat.
One guest's comment says it all: "how happy we were to enjoy a unique Australian bush experience on 4 acres of gardens in a lovely modern home looking down on a river just 15 minutes from Hastings Street".
