You’re welcome to explore Sandy Strait Shack, a cozy tiny house Queensland retreat with diverse wildlife. This green haven buzzes with life—ducks glide across the pond, turtles peek out, and families revel in lively, outdoor fun. Whether it’s observing wildlife, relaxing by the pond, or enjoying the playful areas designated for kids, this getaway offers a rich, varied experience for everyone to enjoy
Sandy Strait Shack, located by the coastal locality of Booral, is a 20-minute drive from Hervey Bay. This tiny house sits in a secluded part of the property, where kangaroos roam and birds sing. Close to attractions like Reef World Aquarium, Urangan Pier, and Lake McKenzie, it offers a blend of isolation and exploration. Nearby, enjoy meals at Enzo’s on the Beach or entertainment at Hervey Bay RSL.
A comfortable, 139-square-foot accommodation is set in one of the best tiny house rentals and serene locations with abundant natural bushland, easy access to water, split air conditioning, a kitchenette, cooking equipment, and excellent bathroom facilities.
The bathroom, however, follows ecologically sustainable principles, including an eco-friendly cassette toilet with a removable waste holding tank, hand basin, and shower (gas heated for hot showers). It focuses on satisfying people’s needs with natural resources and processes to save water by using eco-friendly toilets to save the environment.
If you plan to spend your tiny house Queensland retreat here, we advise that you bring your basic necessities such as food and water during your stay with us. Thank you!
