About this house rental
Your own totally private river 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 on the fourth side. A covered deck high in the trees overlooks the river. Kookaburras and magpies sit on the deck rail and mullet jump in the river below. Kangaroos are valued residents on the lawns.
The house is open-plan with a "die-for" deck in the trees looking down on the river. Parents unwind on the deck while children adventure below! Swim, fish, crab and kayak directly from the house, in a very private and wilderness like setting. Children love the kayaks (we provide 7, two of which are dedicated fishing kayaks, and life jackets) These provide a 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).
Comfortable lounges on the ultra-large tree level deck look down on river reflections. 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 adjacent national park. The 'roos graze around the house in the morning and evening, and the kookaburras sit on the balcony rail watching the progress of your meal out of the corner of their eyes!
The house and deck are fully accessible without ascending steps and the shower in the main bathroom is wheel chair friendly.
There are sweeping lawn down to the river and towering original growth eucalypts. Paperbarks line the river bank.
Sit around the firepit by the river cooking snags, under the stars and listening to the mullet splashing. Maybe 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 to Hastings Street fashion shopping, renowned restaurants and Noosa's iconic main beach and surfing.
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 Sore is five minutes away.
Other nearby attractions include the beautiful Noosa River Everglades by fast 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 Sore and fifteen minutes away).
Minimum booking is two days.
A separate and privately located granny flat on the same 4 acres can also be added for $100/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 a 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.

This was a holiday in magical suttoundings, the house set within trees , bush, the creek running past, and visitedby the local kangaroos and cookaburras. The house is large, comfortable and well equipped. We came to relax, and it was easy. Thank you Carolyn and Geoff

Absolutely amazing location, quiet and peaceful.
My family and I had so much fun on the kayaks and swing.
Home and granny flat was beautifully clean on arrival, and so well equipped. Also we all noticed lovely toiletries in the bathrooms.
Thank you, we will definitely be back.

Wow, wow, wow.... we absolutely loved this property which is set in a beautiful location away from all the the tourist-bustle, yet is only a short drive from the Tewantin shops. Our hosts were very quick to resolve a minor issue we encountered with the DVD player, and the property had all the comforts you'd possibly want. We would happily stay here again.

Relaxing second time visiting, the property enabled us all to enjoy much needed rest and relaxation together. Love the bush and river views and all that is provided for a very comfortable stay.
Noosa Harbour Fish Market provided 3kg of delicious prawns and oysters & Scottys Pizza dished out great pizza for footy night. Apollonian Hotel always a favourite spot to enjoy a coldie.
Noosa Oceanrider highly recommend for some added family fun.
Appreciate being here again!

My family and I stayed for 2 nights to celebrate my 50th birthday. What a stunning, private and tranquil holiday home. You don't need to even leave! We filled our day with kayaking, swimming, fishing and just enjoying a good book and a glass of wine as you cast your eyes over the river from your balcony. We will definately be back...for a longer stay next time

We all loved staying here. The location was close enough to everything but really loved the space, the birds, the roos and especially the kayaks!

I cannot say more about this property and the time we had away. Was so awesome to get out on the river and have a good relaxing time in the kayaks they provided. Definitely a must stay place
4.9
We had an amazing time. The house had everything you could ask for a river stay. The kayaks, fishing rods and crab pots were great fun and we enjoyed toasting marshmallows over the fire pit (firewood was supplied) on the rivers edge. The outlook off the deck is to die for. The showers were one of the best and the kitchen was well equipped.Definitely recommend for families. I wish we could have stayed longer.!

Beautiful calming place to stay
House is fabulous for our purpose. Hosts very accommodating and house has lots of extras.

Such a beautiful property with stunning bush and river views. Heaps of inclusions from the kayaks and firewood to everything you could need inside the house. You feel like you are isolated from the world but still so close to everything you could need. This property was the perfect place to relax with loved ones while preparing for our wedding. We will definitely be back. Thanks so much Carolyn and Geoff.

This spacious, comfortable house with huge deck overlooking a private creek was the perfect place for me and my adult/teen kids to relax and have the best fun! There is a deep waterhole with swinging rope just around the bend in kayaks (all provided) and a large firepit with wood ready to go for an evening outdoors. We will definitely be booking again. Loved this place!!

Amazing location, and fantastic house. The river at our doorstep and ample kayaks provided hours of entertainment. Perfect place to relax and enjoy being lazy, but also brilliantly located to Noosa and the surrounds.

Took my husband ( who has mobility problems) and 92 year old father, beds were comfortable, views amazing, we enjoyed the kangaroos popping by. Lots of bugs outside at night so after our predinner drinks we sat inside. A relative made damper and used the fire pit, and we were able to drive to it with permission from the easy going owners staying nearby. Noosa marina and shops only 7 mins away, overall very relaxing and pleasant, oh and our little dog just loved exploring.

This is the second time we have stayed and we love it. The serenity beauty locality the kayaks it’s just a great piece of paradise to sit back recharge and be as active or not it’s all your choice and so close to everything. I’m sure we will be back again. Oh did I mention the mud crabs…. delicious. Suggest you bring your own pots.

The natural surrounding was so beautiful. We all felt totally relaxed the minute we arrived. We could fish and watch the kids kayak and swim because the house was so close to the river. The place was clean and had plenty of room for everyone. We stayed for 3 nights but we could have easily stayed for a week or more. Will be definitely be back!

The home was an oasis to come back to during our time exploring San Antonio. Our host was kind enough to have firewood ready our first night, and our evenings were spent relaxing in the fun backyard. We can’t wait to book again for our next stay!

Thank you. This home was perfect for a relaxing family getaway. The kayaks were awesome with the lake only a short paddle up the river and launch right from the back door! Great for our dogs too with a big deck and plenty of space for them. Highly recommend!

We had the pleasure of staying at Carolyn and Geoff's property at Cooribah for 3 nights with our 2 dogs and thoroughly enjoyed it. The property and house was better than described and we could have easily stayed longer in this tranquil relaxing property.

This is our third stay at this special place with its acres of land and unique position on its own creek. Going to sleep with kangaroos hopping in adjacent bushland and waking to birdsong is wonderful. The house is well equipped and well-suited for dogs. We love kayaking on the river. And Noosa is just a short drive away.

We had the best time, could not have been better, beautiful magical place, 10/10, we will be back!

Amazing getaway for my 50th Birthday with friends, great privacy, we had a campfire with music, great access to the lake with plenty of facilities. The house is set up with virtually everything you could want for a relaxing stay. We will be booking again next year and potentially others I have spoken to that stayed. Thanks Carolyn

We had a lovely long family weekend, the house was clean and tidy. Lovely setting on the river. Great to have the kayaks and fishing equipment.

We have visited this house a number of times for holidays but this was our first visit in winter. The beautiful outlook from the deck and surrounds make for a very relaxing break. Plenty of wildlife around, birds, kangaroos and leaping fish. As usual we spent most of our stay on deck and on the water.

We had a wonderful stay - the location next to the river is fabulous, feels like you are away from it all but only a short drive to Tewantin. It was great fun to kayak with the whole family, and we caught plenty of fish off the bank. The house was very comfortable and had everything you could possibly need, we would come back in a heartbeat! Thanks Carolyn and Geoff for having us at your fabulous property!
