Weekend Trip to Fern gully Creek, Coorabell

Great location: very shady, large fireplace and next to a small creek. Great for kids to play in and build dams. Lots of mulch around which really decreases dirt being tracked in your van. Enjoyed our stay, will be back!

An incredible location. The shower under the stars sold it for us! Amazing. Why stay in the hustle and bustle when you can go to sleep watching the lighthouse and wake up to kookaburras singing and cows mooing. Thank you so much Allan

Very much liked the clear and direct signposts and instructions. Was absolutely lucky to be there on my own, so I could entirely emerge myself into the sparkling nature, the clean creek and the lovely horse named Brandy. Owners were minding their own business, so this enchanted orchard was all mine. Loved it.

Our property is surrounded by the crystal clear ocean, a beautiful rural outlook and rainforest walks. Sugar Beach Ranch offers you a private and picturesque beachfront experience. Simply put it's ‘Nature’s Playground’. Sugar Beach Ranch is a special place... a place of relaxation and reflection. We want guests to enjoy the break away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Wake up to songs of native birds. Bring your own horse, guitar, or your writing book and loll away the hours nurturing your soul in paradise. All guests have shared access to the 15m resort-style magnesium pool and direct beach access from the property. We are a wildlife sanctuary and an operating farm with horses, chickens, ducks, pigeons and a peacock. There are dogs on the property to protect the chickens and other animals from predators, so please don’t bring any pets of your own. Enjoy Sugar Beach Ranch with your horse, bring them along for the holiday, and plenty of beach and trail rides. Paddock accommodation available. As we are located in the secluded and sleepy cane fields of South Ballina there is limited access to shops, cafes, restaurants, etc. The Burns Point Ferry is the best way to get to us, it runs from 5:30am until 12.30am daily, consistently running back and forth. An approx. 8min journey each way and costs $.00 each way, payable by credit card only. So you can easily go into Ballina town for all shops, cafes, restaurants, etc. If the ferry isn't for you, you can drive to Ballina via Wardell on River Drive. The bungalow is located approx. 25m from the main residence, and the campsite is located approx. 300m from the main residence tucked away in the paddocks and forest. We are onsite and available if needed. Sugar Beach Ranch is an operating farm with staff onsite caring for animals and maintaining the grounds.
