About this property

The Bunker - Cowan Cowan - Moreton Island

Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. Imagine walking 20 meters to the beach, setting up a fire whilst the kids play soccer and cricket on the grass, walking from the beach to the fire pit and then racing back down for a swim. The holidays of the past where beach access was from your doorstep is still possible. Its rugged, its drawing from the past to inspire the memories of the future generation. Simple and relaxed holiday home that allows you to bunker down and switch off.
Please note: The house is completely off grid and is powered by a solar/battery system. House water is supplied from rainwater tanks that is drinking and all other water is bore water.

Please Note

Stay in a piece of History

Great location and truly unique experience staying in old WW2 outpost. Fans in all rooms were good for summer. Good fridge / freezer, solar power was ample.
Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024
