Possum Park

Possum Park Information

Possum Park lies nestled in 360 acres of tranquil bushland, 20 kilometres from Miles in south west Queensland. The unique accommodation park offers an experience you will not find anywhere else.

During World War Two, the RAAF Kowguran explosives store was located here and comprised 20 concrete underground bunkers among other buildings. In 1957, RAAF Kowguran was disbanded and in 1985 David and Julie Hinds converted the underground bunkers into self-contained accommodation units.

The accommodation available at Possum Park today also includes renovated self-contained Troop Train carriages reminiscent of 1939 to 1945 and post-war times, drive-through powered caravan sites (some with ensuites), and a Safari tent area for camping. Camping groups are catered for with barbecue and undercover bush kitchen facilities, a laundry, wet weather sleeping area and a modern amenity block.

Visitors are invited to share in the camp-fire happy hour each evening, relax in the library, or simply enjoy the quiet surrounds of the Bush Chapel and walking tracks.
