MARY KATHLEEN
(Submitted by Bruce & Julie)
Bruce here from Carters Ridge,thought I should let you know of our nude stopover on our way to Darwin each year. Mary Kathleen is an old mining ghost town halfway between Mt Isa & Cloncury,it is a couple of Kms off the highway on an old unmaintained bitumen road.When you get into the old town if you go right to the eastern (or Cloncury) end you will see a little monument I have built which holds a visitors book for Nudists. I will attach photos of same, Mary Kathleen is listed in Camps 3 & 4 touring bible(camp 305).

Re, directions,. Agnes Water and the village of 1770 (so named because of Captain Cook landing there,) is on the central coast of Queensland. Approximately half way between Gladstone and Bundaberg. It's the furthest point north that we get surf. The beginning of the Barrier Reef.
We (John and Joan) live a nudist lifestyle on our secluded 40 acre block 15 minutes out of Agnes Water, Queensland.
We lived in a van for the first 2 years while I built our home, and now we keep that area as a camp ground for self contained travelling nudists.
There are 2 national parks, isolated beaches (not in school holiday times though), as well as miles of nude bush walks around our block.
A hot shower, or open air bath tub, composting toilet, B.B.Q. and open fireplace. Rainwater drinking water also, are the only amenities there is, except for "Happy Hour on the verandah".
We live by our motto,"We're small on amenities, Big on hospitality".
Fees are a donation to cover our costs.
Remember, we are not a club, not a resort.
Just a happy nudist couple who enjoy other nudists company.
Ph. 07 49749158. Evenings best.
Email johnclarke201@queenslander.net. for directions.

 Could I submit WOODFORD RETREAT, at Woodford in Queensland ?

  

Alan Marshall is the owner of this non-profit nudist park on his 12 acres of bushland, that had excellent facilities including hot showers, toilets, town water, powered sites that can accommodate caravans. Alan has done all the building work…a labour of love. 

  

  

I have stayed there, as have many dozens of other nudists in the 2 or 3 years that it has been open.  

It is not a business and all use is by donation, to reimburse for power & water used and maintenance performed and to keep it neat and tidy.  

  

Attached is pic of me at one of the shower blocks.
