“Serviceable and clean with loads of room for a family of 6 or 2 smaller families.”
The unit was clean, bathroom modern, beds large and comfortable. Super quiet and serene with lovely outlook to the bush from the bedrooms. Bedrooms large, beds comfortable and loads of space in the living area for families. Bush walk very close.

“Great property, it was good that all the guests were friendly and nice.”
The beautiful morning rainforest walk, the morning and evening views of Atherton and her distant mountains and the peacefulness of it all.

“Superb in every way for singles, couples, or families. Seriously hard to beat!”
Absolutely everything we loved! The shared large kitchen for only 4 other rooms was so fully equipped when we did cook. The rooms with ensuites are so comfortable. So private. The pool/spa area and deck are amazing. Best views in town being so high up! And then the outdoor fireplace was just amazing! Have travelled a lot. I rate this as one of the very best! We extended our stay as it was so good.
