Position on map:

The Burleigh Heads Tourist Park and Caretakers Residence, established in 1959, is historically significant in demonstrating a phase in the pattern of development of the tourism industry which has been influential in the development of the Gold Coast. The distinctive and uncommon ‘caravan’ design of the residence is a product of the fun and fantasy phase of development on the Gold Coast in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Designed by architect Malcolm Cummings, the building displays a degree of creative achievement that illustrates innovation in design and construction. The use of this site has been sustained through its continued function as a caretakers residence and tourist park regularly used by Gold Coast holiday makers.
