We loved our stay in the cabin. It was super comfortable and cosy. The verandah was a great spot to hangout with a cold beer in the arvo. We'll be back for sure!

The cabin was squeaky clean, well-equipped with a very comfortable bed. Verandah with outdoor setting and barbecue was great. Overlooking the peaceful river and lots of birdlife. I will definitely stay again.

Weekend Trip to Bucca Country River Retreat
What a lovely little cabin on this beautiful property! Sarah's place was well appointed with the finer fittings making the whole stay feel quite homely.
Was the perfect place to watch the sunset from the deck, overlooking the river whilst having a bbq. The large firepit was a great place to see out the night.
The whole camp grounds were very well kept.
We can't recommend Sarah's cabin or camp grounds enough. 5 stars. We will be back.

The best family-friendly glamping sites near Kinkuna guide
Where to go
Burrum Coast National Park
Campers with tents and trailers will love calling Burrum Coast National Park their home away from home. Campgrounds here offer amenities like flush toilets, cold showers, and fire rings. Vehicles with 4WD can camp on the beach, but be wary of high tide. The Hoppy Lark’s Creek day-use area is a prime picnic spot that looks over Gregory River, and the fishing platform lets anglers cast rods to reel in fresh catches. Head to the Woodgate section for walking tracks where local bird species hang out.
Wongi State Forest
Get acquainted with the whimsical eucalyptus woods in Wongi State Forest. Its roomy on-site pitches are suitable for tents, camper trailers, and motorhomes. Flush toilets, cold showers, picnic tables, and potable water are also readily available. Equestrians can take to the National Bicentennial Trail, while kayakers and swimmers explore the Wongi Waterholes. Make sure to bring the camera to capture candids of feathered friends that dominate the canopy overhead.
Great Sandy National Park
Two hours from Kinkuna, Great Sandy National Park is definitely worth the drive. The island K’gari makes up the northern section, and the Cooloola Recreation Area on the mainland sits on the southern boundary. Campgrounds in Cooloola provide luxuries like flush toilets, hot showers, and BBQ facilities, while K’gari features boat-accessible pitches for swags and tents with minimal amenities. Visit Lake McKenzie to dig into white silica sand before dipping into the turquoise waters. Then take a kayak trip throughout the Noosa Everglades—full of incredibly diverse wildlife.
When to go
Winter is the high season, offering milder temperatures for strenuous activities like hiking and horseback riding. Humpback whales make their annual migration during winter as well and can be seen from the coast of Great Sandy National Park from June through October. The humid summer season makes the waterholes in Wongi State Forest endlessly refreshing and draws campers to aquatic activities like kayaking through the Noosa Everglades.
