Imagine yourself sitting on the deck of this double storey home on top of Mt Mee, sipping a Chardonnay from the local Ocean View Estate Winery and Vineyard, while casting your eyes on the scenic surrounds of rolling green hills and distant mountain ranges including the Glasshouse Mountains. See Caloundra lit up with the afternoon light and enjoy the coastal view. Your vista continues all the way around to views of Moreton Island and the Port of Brisbane. The approximately 270-degree vista provides an ever-changing picturesque back-drop from sunrise to sunset. The season brings the sounds of black cockatoos overhead.

Mount Mee is an unknown treasure to many seeking to move out of Brisbane City. Buy your own piece of ‘paradise’, as the locals refer to this hinterland area. “Overlooking the magnificent Glasshouse Mountains, Mount Mee is approximately 60 minutes drive north west of Brisbane and is part of the beautiful D’Aguilar Range. From on top of Mount Mee, expansive and picturesque views of seaside Caloundra and pristine Moreton Bay can be savoured. The delightfully bohemian village of Woodford is just 10 minutes drive to the north. The Mount Mee Forest Reserve contains huge expanses of rainforest and eucalypt forest and includes many picturesque bushwalks and four wheel drive tracks. Clear water creeks, lush rainforest canopies and stunning views make the Reserve a perfect place to unwind and get back to nature. Travel back in time exploring remnants of The Gantryâs timber-mill history before setting out on a bushwalk or scenic forest drive.”
Mount Mee boasts its own micro-climate which is traditionally 3 to 5 degrees cooler than the coast, which makes great sense in those summer months. Enjoy being part of a rural residential community, where people stop to say G’day.
This Rural Hamlet is in close proximity to Dahmongah Lookout Park, with its sweeping vista of the Glass House Mountains. “Dahmongah meaning ‘flying squirrel’ was the local aboriginal name for Mt Mee.”
Mount Mee Primary School is 5 minutes down the road and a school bus picks up children in the street. The renowned Birches Restaurant is also a few minutes-drive away. There are Country markets at the community hall and an active Historical Society, Garden Club and Tennis Club in the area. DâAguilar National Park, featuring its many walking trails and the Gantry, is a short drive away. “The gantry shelter is a legacy of the huge timber sawmill that operated here until 1981.”
“Bushwalkers can explore beautiful, open forests, scribbly gum forests, rainforest remnants, hoop pine plantations and cascading rainforest creeks. For an extra challenge, hike the Somerset trail and be rewarded with glorious views of Somerset and Wivenhoe Lakes. History buffs can inspect the remains of an antique sawmill and take the Piccabeen Palm walk to learn about the area’s forestry and logging history. The area has a number of good camping spots with toilets, barbecues and firewood provided. Camping and four wheel drive permits are required. With its rich volcanic soil and good rainfall, this area is also known for its coffee growing and wonderful variety of local cheeses. These gastronomic delights can be savoured at the local restaurants and eateries.”
Woodford, Wamuran and Dayboro all have shopping facilities, and there is an express train service from Caboolture Station. The University of the Sunshine Coast (USC) has a campus at Petrie, next to the train station.
