Mango Lodge at River Heads

Tucked away on 75 acres of peaceful rural land at River Heads, Mango Lodge is a family-owned luxury timber cabin retreat placing you just 3 kilometres from the ferry service to K'gari (formerly Fraser Island). Established in 2018 by a husband-and-wife team, this solid timber slab cabin blends the character of a bygone era with every modern comfort you need to genuinely switch off. From the moment you arrive, the details tell the story. A 150-year-old wood stove anchors the living space, handmade timber seating and hand-crafted tables add warmth and craft, and a genuine Genoa lounge suite invites you to slow down. Step outside and kangaroos hop freely across the property — a reminder that you've landed somewhere genuinely special on the Fraser Coast. The bathroom is a highlight in its own right, centred on a deep claw-foot bath with a serene outlook across a century-old mango tree — ideal for a long, unhurried soak while the wildlife passes by. Accessibility has been thoughtfully considered: the bathroom is fitted with a roll-in double shower, grab rails, and a recessed vanity, with a rolling shower chair available on request, making Mango Lodge a welcoming option for guests with mobility needs. River Heads is a quietly stunning corner of the Fraser Coast, sitting on the edge of the Great Sandy Strait with views across to K'gari. Mango Lodge is your ideal base for a K'gari day trip or multi-day adventure — roll off the ferry and you're already home. Hervey Bay is a short drive away, and the surrounding bushland means wildlife encounters are part of the daily rhythm here. This is accommodation for guests who appreciate soul over scale — where hands-on family hospitality, a century-old mango tree, and the sound of kangaroos at dusk are the real luxuries.
