Accommodation Options for All Travel Styles

Rawnsley Park Station caters generously to all budgets and travel profiles, masterfully segmenting its accommodation across the expansive property to preserve a true sense of space and seclusion.

• Luxury Eco-Villas: The crown jewel of the station. These four-and-a-half-star, straw-bale constructed villas come in one and two-bedroom configurations. They offer sweeping views of the Chace Range through massive windows, private verandas, and over-bed sunroofs for late-night stargazing.  
• Self-Contained Holiday Units: Available in standard and superior configurations, these one, two, and three-bedroom units feature private kitchens, full-sized refrigerators, and spacious living areas, making them ideal for families and small groups.
• Caravan Park Sites & Park Cabins: The vibrant caravan park hub offers spacious Powered Sites with slab options, alongside cozy, budget-friendly Park Cabins (including designated pet-friendly cabin variants).
• Secluded Bush Camping: For those wanting an authentic, off-grid outback experience, unpowered sites are scattered throughout clearings in the native pine and gum trees, offering complete privacy far away from the main amenities.
