This was a perfect spot for our adventures across Queensland and jumping off point for exploring the Atherton Tablelands. There was a communal porch that was perfect for relaxing after a long day of hiking and chatting with fellow travellers. Also loved seeing all of the critters at night, as the place is located right next to a greenway where pademelon and bush thick-knee wander!

Such a lovely property. The host was welcoming, kind and thoughtful. The photos match what was there. The beds and bathroom were all well made up and clean. It was lovely to share a lounge, kitchen and veranda with other guests and have a nice community feel. We had everything we needed plus more, and felt nicely welcomed that we would have felt we could ask if there was anything else we did need.

The room was clean and the host was very friendly. My only complaint is that the smoking area was a great distance from the room. I understand that smoking is a disgusting habit but both myself and my carer are smokers and due to my disability it was difficult for me to walk down the driveway to the pool area
