staying close to mother

Hi Stephen and Deborah

I know of a few people who have stayed at Cottontree Caravan Park at Maroochydore, right on the river and surf beach. Nice quiet corner of Maroochydore! We have been there a few times as it is very convenient to the factory. Shops are within walking distance also. It gives you a chance to check everything out on your BT especially if you live a fair distance away. There are drive-through sites but the park fills up at Easter, Christmas and all other peak holiday times.

Have fun in your BT.

Hi Stephen & Deborah

We stayed at a tourist park called Forrest Glen. It's only a 10 minute drive from BT, just near an entry to the Highway, has shop, bottlo, newsagency just up the road and Buderim is only about 15 minutes away. The sites are drive through, and all in all a nice clean place. Might be worth a phone call to book depending on time of year. We were there mid December last year and there was plenty of room. Hope this helps.
Cheers

When we collected our van, we stayed at nambour Rainforest Village about 10 minutes from Bushtracker. Picked this one because it allowed dogs. It's a small park and a bit of a squeeze getting a 20' van onto the site, but not really a problem.

Since then have stayed at Forest Glen and it was very good. Both these parks are with 10 minutes of Sunshine Plaza (I think that's what it is called). It has EVERYTHING that you forgot to bring with you or decide you need for the van; kitchen goods, linen, tools, hoses, ladders - the lot!!

If a dog is not an issue, my recommendation would be Forest Glen. Chances are, like us you'll meet a couple of other new BT owners there as well!

Good info for us in May - thanks people

I have seen a few people travelling up to Tewantin and staying at the Boganvillia Caravan Park that has large sites and so long as you are outside the main holiday period is not crowded. You can then enjoy the sights of Noosa and still be only 40 km from BTi. Sound In Motion also have a branch in Noosa that is much easier than their Nambour head office to access with a caravan.

Thankyou everyone for your response - the advice is much appreciated, now we can knock another task off the list.

Cheers

Deborah
