Kenilworth River Oaks on Mary River - Pet friendly

River Oaks is joined to acres of dairy farming land and overlooks a horse stud across the river with direct access to the Mary River. We are located in a small riverfront laneway with just 3 properties, and yet just a 4 min drive to the village of Kenilworth.

River Oaks offers a lovingly restored country farm house with a spectacular veranda overlooking the Mary River and beyond, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a serious gourmet’s French provincial kitchen, and breath taking country views.
. The homestead enjoys its own direct access to the Mary River. River Oaks is just 4 minutes from the historic Kenilworth Village, and 35 minutes from Noosa..

We offer a lovingly restored country farm house with a spectacular veranda overlooking the Mary River and beyond, 3 bedrooms (2 queen + 4 single beds), 2 bathrooms, and a serious gourmet's French provincial kitchen, French doors throughout and breath taking country views. The fully renovated farm house is comfortably appointed with classic country furnishings, a library, polished timber floors and rugs, a fireplace and is fully screened against insects. River Oaks is pet friendly (on application) with a fenced yard, a tree house for the kids, oh and a dishwasher and coffee machine to cater for parent comfort too! Mod cons such as a smoothie blender (herbs and greens in the garden) and an airfryer are also available.

Range

Relaxing break

We found the property to be comfortable, relaxing and well set-up. The views were great but the 4-bed room was a bit small for four people. We would like to come again.

Very laid back few days

We stayed for 4 nights and had a most relaxing break. The house was spotless and had everything we needed including games, dvd's and books for entertainment. Situated about 3km from Kenilworth so you need a car to get around. Elin (host) was very helpful and informative. All in all a lovely time had by all including our dogs.

Great getaway!

Spotlessly clean, very comfortable bedding, dogs had a great time in the river. 5 min drive to the Kenilworth cheese factory. Air conditioning in the bedroom and lounge made it comfortable in the warm weather. Great place to stay and owners were very helpful!

Incredible

We had a spectacular 8 days at the property which felt like we were in a rainforest oasis that was so private and surrounded by luscious greenery and nature. We all swam in the river, fished, walked the property and interacted with the cows on the adjoining property. The kids played in the tree house while we sat on the veranda and were visited each night by 2 huge green tree frogs and could hear the possums in the trees. The location was close to the town where we went to the incredible Kenilworth Bakery and Dairy. The town has a great vibe. Down the road in the other direction is a quirky old style burger diner with lots of collectibles and amazing Pizzas it’s called Mrs Browns Diner. The host was available on a property next door if we needed and she was so wonderful. On our final day we got to explore her spectacular permaculture garden and we all learnt so much and got some samples to take home.

Tranquil stay on the Mary River

We recently stayed at River Oaks , a beautifully appointed house with rolling green lawns flowing down to the Mary River. The house had everything we needed for cooking and relaxing, books and games for our grandson to play.The lush lawns were ideal for doggie and child play while the ability to access the river straight out the back with our stand up paddle boards was an absolute bonus.We explored the stunning Kenilworth area by day and then returned to our peaceful lodgings to relax in the evenings.The back lawn was a perfect spot for afternoon drinks and nibbles.I would definitely recommend River Oaks and hope to stay again sometime.
