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.

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.

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.

A lovely place to stay

We are long time friends who like to get together every few months with our dogs. The little cottage was lovely, very comfortable with great views & fabulous yard for our fur babies to run around in. Even though it rained we were able to snuggle up with a fire. So lovely to have somewhere so nice to share with our dogs. Thank You for making that possible.

Great House for the Family

I booked this property for my son & daughter & their families to stay in for the weekend as we were attending a family wedding at Kenilworth. They all loved the house & location close to the town. The kids loved the treehouse & wanted to stay longer. The property was clean & comfortable & in a great position. Many thanks to the owner for all your assistance.

Lovely, relaxing stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were very comfortable. Appreciated the large gated verandah that caught the breeze off the river. Kitchen had everything we needed, including a teapot. The river access was perfect for us and our dogs, we could enjoy a swim in the river then relax on the verandah. Property manager was very helpful and approachable. Kenilworth was only a few minutes away. A great, relaxing getaway.

Our weekend stay was an absolute delight. Our dog loved playing by the river banks. While more designated walking areas would have been a nice addition, the overall experience was exceptional. The warm and friendly nature of the caretakers added another layer of joy to our stay. I highly recommend River Oaks to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat and a place where you and your furry friend can truly enjoy nature's beauty.

The best place ever.

Our 2nd time here. We've stayed many dog-friendly places and this is our favourite. The house is beautiful and so relaxing for us - it's very clean and has everything. The furkids have their own area outside for... you know what etc. and then a tremendous, big paddock to run in with us. There are caretakers next door, who are gorgeous, friendly people. We will be back next year, even though we live in Sydney.

Beautiful farmhouse property amazing green pastures from the back verandah down to the river. The house had a cozy family vibe, and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need . A ten minutes drive in to the small village of Kenilworth. The only negative was no WI-Fi , important for us as we were there for a wedding ,and needed communication. Had to drive into Kenilworth for reception
