GLOWS Garden Centre Camp is set in a large field backing onto world heritage rainforest to the East/South and adjoining Garden Centre and Raw Materials Yard to the north. We have only opened 4 lovely grassy sites. Our Hipcamp opened September 2024 and only 200m away is a cafe at our Garden Centre for a great coffee 6 days a week! You will need to be self-sufficient however we do have toilets available between 7am and 5pm in the adjoining Garden Centre carpark. Also available is a large cold water washing machine (gold coin donation). We are located on Tully Mission Beach Road with the bike path between Wongaling Beach and Mission Beach running right past the front gates, so a quick ride into town and plenty of space to bring your boat! We your hosts, (Nancy and Shane) operate the adjoining Garden Centre and Raw Materials yard so there is always something happening and with vast local knowledge of what to do and where to go, we are only happy to help. Opened in September 2024 we have planted a tropical fruit forest plantation as well as citrus orchard and with our 50 beautiful free-range chooks (pets) you will have them wandering around freely, clucking away happily.

Site 1 is the closest to the Garden Centre, you have a concrete pad, grass parking space and fire pit looking into the rainforest. Site 1 is suited to a roof top or small Camper - it's the cutest/littlest of all :)

Site 6 - Fruity Tutee

RV/tent site · Sleeps 6 · Vehicles under 9 m
Site 6 is probably our newest and most private site so far. The site is south eastern facing towards the rainforest so you receive afternoon sun. This site gets the most sun for those needing solar - Plenty of space for caravans or camper trailers with concrete pad and fire pit looking into the rainforest. Right next to the tropical fruit forest!

  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    Campers consistently praise the spacious and private sites surrounded by lush gardens, making it an ideal base for exploring Mission Beach. The friendly hosts and presence of free-ranging chickens and turkeys add a unique charm to the stay. While most enjoy the tranquility, some found the male turkeys a bit aggressive, and there were occasional difficulties with site signage. Overall, it's celebrated for its natural beauty, privacy, and proximity to local attractions.
