Kangaroo Country Caravan Park

The pet policy. Kangaroo Country Caravan Park in Midgee takes dogs across the board: on all caravan and camping sites and inside the super deluxe one and two-bedroom cabins. Camping and caravan sites typically carry no extra charge for dogs. For cabin stays, the structured park policy notes a small fee applies, though some sources suggest no charge, so confirm the exact cost directly when you phone. Dogs must remain on leash at all times within the park. Bring your own bedding, food, and water bowls as these are not supplied.

The place. A 5-acre, sub-tropical bushland property with a quiet, farm-style feel about 10km south of Rockhampton on the Bruce Highway. The park caters to large rigs, including trucks, buses, 5th wheelers, and boats, with large drive-through sites that make parking straightforward. On-site features include a bird aviary, clean amenities, and plenty of open grassy space for exercising leashed dogs. Reviewers consistently flag clean cabins, working fridges, and good beds against the trade-off of noticeable train noise.

Location & nearby. The park sits at 59741 Bruce Highway, Midgee, roughly 10km south of Rockhampton, making it a practical highway stopover rather than a destination stay. If you are heading into Rockhampton proper, Coffee Society Rockhampton and Cousins On William are both worth knowing for a cafe break. For alternative accommodation in the area, see Southside Holiday Village.

Who it suits. Road-trippers running big setups along the Bruce Highway will get the most value here. The drive-through sites handle large vehicles and combinations that many parks cannot accommodate. One-night stopovers are the sweet spot, though the 5-acre bushland setting and grassy open spaces make a longer farm-stay style visit reasonable if train noise does not bother you or your dog.

Before you book. There is no online booking system. Every reservation goes through the front desk on 07 4921 1799, so use that call to confirm the cabin pet fee, request a quieter site away from the railway, and flag your dog's size. Good for highway travellers with large rigs needing an easy overnight pull-off south of Rockhampton.
