Manicured Campsite | Riverside Shoot Location | Kenilworth, QLD

Set along the tranquil banks of the Mary River in Kenilworth, this unique shoot location offers a blend of manicured nature, rural charm, and peaceful riverfront access—all within 40 minutes of Noosa. Situated on a working dairy farm in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, the site provides an authentic outdoor setting with a thoughtfully maintained aesthetic, perfect for brand shoots, editorial campaigns, or nature-led film projects.

The property features four dedicated campsites, three of which sit directly beside the river. The fourth, known as Top Hill, is slightly elevated—offering sweeping views across the landscape and a slightly different angle for content creation. Each site comes with its own fire pit, with firewood available on request, giving creators the option to capture that soft campfire glow or dusk storytelling moment.

The surrounding grounds are neatly kept but natural, offering a clean canvas for styled outdoor shoots. Wildlife is a constant presence here—platypus, turtles, fish, and a wide range of native birds add an unfiltered layer of life and movement to the backdrop. For those looking to shoot dynamic lifestyle content, kayaks and tyre tubing are available on the river itself, while golden hour reflections off the water provide cinematic opportunities in every direction.

A standout feature of the space is the striking blue tree—a visual marker placed in solidarity with the RUOK mental health movement. It offers both a pop of colour and a meaningful narrative element for those looking to build storytelling into their shoot.

While the site is best suited to self-contained productions (with no toilet facilities provided), it offers complete quiet, privacy, and connection to the surrounding natural environment. Teams are asked to carry in and carry out all waste, keeping the space clean for the next project and preserving the riverbank’s pristine condition.

For creatives seeking a shoot location in Kenilworth that’s wild but tidy, open yet intimate, this riverside campsite offers just the right balance of structure and freedom.
