The accommodation

Chevallan Archery Park is located 18 km east of Gympie at Wilsons Pocket, the property is 30 acres in total area with 750 meters of Tinana Creek frontage on two boundaries. The property is mostly flat with a gentle slope to the rear and creek area. It is all mowed and landscaped and provides a perfect location for camping with easy access to all the local attractions in Gympie, the Cooloola Coast and the Sunshine Coast regions.

We absolutely love this place, and it seems like everyone who's visited over the past few weeks has enjoyed their stay as well. This weekend, we welcomed new guests Steve, Melinda, Kylie, and Wayne. Wayne even won the "Orange Cup" trophy with his first shot at the orange target. 

Melinda, who we nicknamed "Maid Marianne," also tried archery for the first time and ended up with a few bruises on her arms. She quickly learned the importance of wearing an arm guard. Dave, who was on his second visit to the park, liked it so much that he bought his own bow and arrow from the park owner, Gary.

On Sunday, some of us went biking in Gympie, while others went to Rainbow Beach for lunch. We showed Steve the spot where they make those famous videos, "I got Booged at Inskip Point."
