Country Club for Accommodation

Country Club for Accommodation sits on the Bruce Highway at Parkhurst, just north of Rockhampton, and it is built for travellers rather than holidaymakers. If you are towing a van up the highway with the dog in the back seat, it is a straightforward overnight stop where pets are welcome across most of the park.

The pet policy

Dogs are permitted on the powered sites, drive-through sites, ensuite sites and in the self-contained units. Specific size limits and pet fees are not published, so confirm both when you book, and keep dogs out of the shared amenities areas and pool.

Drive-through sites are the practical draw: pull in, plug in, and you are not reversing a van at the end of a long day. Amenities are kept clean and the park caters to caravans, motorhomes and tents alike.

Max: ring ahead about fees and size limits. Nothing is published, and a quick call before you drive in beats negotiating at the gate at dusk.

Worth knowing

This is a practical highway stopover, not a destination park. The trade-off for the Bruce Highway address is road noise in the busy periods, and sites fill through the winter caravan season, so book ahead in school holidays. Bring your own water bowls and bedding, as there are no dog-specific extras on site.

Getting there and nearby

The park fronts Yaamba Road, the Bruce Highway route heading north out of Rockhampton. The Parkhurst town centre, including a supermarket, is an easy walk for supplies, and there is open space around the park for stretching legs after a drive.

Alternative stays in the same patch include Parkhurst Caravan Park and the Casa Nostra Motel, while Southside Holiday Village on the city's south side is the pet-friendly pick if you want to be closer to town.

More options sit on the Queensland pet friendly stays guide and the Parkhurst destination page.
