(168)

64km from Narangba · 4 sites · Tents, RVs · Sunshine Coast, QLD

A cleared grass/gravel paddock close to everything Maroochydore, Coolum and the Sunshine Coast has to offer! Our land backs onto the Maroochy River (no direct access but the boat ramp is less than 5 minute drive away) and each site is sheltered by tall trees. There are 3 defined sites with plenty of room for privacy and escape in nature. Bring your own push bike or walking shoes to explore the mangroves and bushland. We have an abundance of native wildlife and it’s a good idea to bring mozzie/insect repellent. We do have plenty of firewood available although if it’s been raining it will be best to BYO wood. We have a communal fire pit you can use (please don't camp on the grass near the fire pit). We kindly ask all campers to be 100% self-sufficient as we do not have any waste, water, or power facilities. You carry it in you carry it out. Our site is 2WD friendly although once again if it's been raining it's best to stick to the gravel roads. Please message me if you have any questions! To keep us all safe, we have some VERY IMPORTANT notes: Please stay on the gravel roads - there are deep holes and drains hidden by long grass on neighbouring blocks. These can cause damage to vehicles and you will need a tow truck to be recovered. Bring your pets, please keep them close as we have no fences.

We loved our stay! There was plenty of space and each site had a fire pit with wood supplied close by. It was very secure with double gates and some beautiful walks in the area. The friendly visits from the animals was an added bonus. We loved our stay so much that we had to extend. The hosts were super accomodating and easy to deal with. What a beautiful gem🫶

Stan and Lyndal were fantastic hosts who were friendly and very accommodating in sharing their wonderful property with us. We enjoyed the privacy, tranquility and beautiful scenery throughout the property, and loved the rainforest loop walk, the black lagoon and the rainforest creek. The wide-open grassed areas allowed us to have a kick of the footy, and a game of family cricket. Access to water on the property via a hose and tap was a huge plus as we easily filled our jerry cans to top up the caravan, and access to a dump point was nearby at Maleny. Jackie and I, the kids and border collie very much loved our stay, and we will be back again one day soon. Thanks for having us Stan and Lyndal.

Loved our stay at Stanlyn Park. The site on Wash Creek was very private, and such a beautiful spot to relax. It was weird only being an hour from home, yet it felt like we were so far away. Thank you Stan for sharing your property with us, we will be sure to visit with our dogs in future.
