Pelican Rest Tourist Park is a tourist park established in July 2000. In Kamiliroi language Balonne (the river) means 'Resting Place of the Pelican'. The park is situated on the northern approach to St George. As well as 600 trees and shrubs planted around the park there are 30 lawn drive through and 15 other huge powered sites.
The camp kitchen, which features free barbecues, fridges and cooking facilities, is a popular meeting place with ample seating and pleasant views. Those who enjoy yarning around the campfire appreciate the logs and novel heater.
All van sites are huge with Pelican Rest boasting there's 'No Rig too Big' for the park. Set on two hectares of a 16 hectare block, guests enjoy the relaxed and peaceful atmosphere of this spacious park environment. Check out the native trees and shrubs, observe the birds and kangaroos who sometimes visit or gaze at the magnificent sunsets without leaving the park.
The amenities block is spacious and well appointed with disabled bathroom and Laundromat included. The park's dump point is easily accessed. With wide bitumen roads through the park, parking cans is a breeze for even the novice.
