You’ll be staying on a peaceful 7-acre hinterland property with a private lake, surrounded by nature, gardens and wide open space — yet still close to everything the Gold Coast has to offer.

This is a great place for travellers who enjoy being outdoors, value calm and routine, and like contributing to the care of a beautiful property. Your help supports the day-to-day flow of a large, high-quality home — keeping spaces clean, welcoming and well looked after, and helping maintain the gardens and grounds.

In return, you get a comfortable place to live, a relaxed rhythm, and the experience of life on a spacious Australian property where nature, structure and independence are all part of daily life.

It suits people who are practical, respectful of shared spaces, and enjoy seeing the immediate results of their contribution.

I live onsite and work from home, so I’m around, available and hands-on with the property. I’m organised, clear in communication, and respectful of people’s time and effort. Volunteers are treated as trusted adults — with clear expectations, flexibility where possible, and appreciation for what they contribute. Accommodation is shared and comfortable. You are living downstairs (in the garage) with: * 2 single beds and 2 double bunks * One shared bathroom * A large laundry * A shared living space set up in the large garage The environment is calm, friendly and grounded. I value people who take pride in what they do, communicate openly, and enjoy contributing to a place that others get to enjoy as well. This is not a party environment — it’s best suited to independent travellers who enjoy structure, nature, and being part of a well-run home.
