Eco Lodge Mapleton

Dramatic sustainable house designed for relaxed holiday living by Mapleton local Philip Boorman who has many awards for his outstanding Architectural work and furniture designs.

Located on the escarpment in the centre of the 125 acre site. This privileged isolation has allowed the house design to be opened to the expansive surrounding valley and mountains by the extensive use of timber framed bi-fold doors and windows. Solar panels generate the power supply and roof water is collected in tanks for filtered reuse within the home.

The original survey plan of 1904 noted:
"All the country here on shown is of an Extremely Rugged and Broken nature."
This rugged landscape has protected the area from encroachment by subdivisions for over 100 years, providing flora and fauna with largely undisturbed area for species listed as endangered, such as the Coxen Fig-Parrot and the Regent Honey eater, to thrive.

Location

The Lodge is located 3 mins to the mountain village of Mapleton and:
10 mins to the vibrant village of Montville
30 mins to the world famous Eumundi Markets
30 mins to the beaches of the Sunshine Coast - Coolum Beach, Maroochydore, Alexandra Headlands and Mooloolaba
40 mins to Noosa
1.5 hrs to the north of Brisbane

Gorgeous place to stay with our family & dog. The Mapleton Pub is a must-visit for dinner - the food is incredible! We also ventured out to Kenilworth, Maleny, and Montville during our stay.The kids enjoyed collecting kindling and venturing around the property with the dog. We treated the kids to watching DVD's supplied by the hosts (we had little to no phone reception/internet connection). Would highly recommend this place to families, couples, and people wanting to travel with pets.

The photos on the website, good as they are, do not do the property justice.The house is in a stunning location. The house is also beautifully designed and has a very homely feel about it. It was also spotlessly clean.It is wonderful to be in a secluded spot but be close to town for supplies and a fantastic meal at the local pub.It was also good value which is a rare thing in this day and age.Thank you.
