THE SHELTER

Mosquito‑proof meshed walls

The Shade House is fully meshed to block flies, mozzies and midgies, letting you relax without constant swatting—an essential feature for Queensland’s insect season.

THE CAMP HUB

A living space for cooking, eating and storage

Set up table and chairs to eat and unwind in peace; the Shade House doubles as a dry, organised place to keep a fridge, clothes and extra gear protected from the elements.

THE NIGHT

Sleep under the stars, comfortably

Transform the Shade House into a sleeping area—place your mattress inside to enjoy the open sky while staying shielded from insects; for hot nights, hire the high‑power fan with a power‑tool battery to maintain comfort.

What the day feels like

What the stay feels like

Over six nights the Shade House functions as a screened living room by day and a sheltered bedroom by night: unpack your fridge and clothes, dine at the table without a cloud of flies, then roll out a mattress and fall asleep beneath the Queensland sky — the option to hire a long‑life fan keeps those balmy evenings tolerable.
