We will be back!
We’ve visited Happy Valley plenty of times, but this was our first stay at Dingo’s Den, and it was exactly what we were looking for. The accommodation is nestled in a peaceful spot in the Valley, offering an ocean view and breeze. The space is super clean, comfortable and was just what we needed for our 5-night stay. It’s the perfect place to unwind and disconnect for a few days. The kitchen was well-stocked, making it easy to prepare meals, and the barbecue was great for outdoor dining. Bree is a super friendly host, and great to communicate with. Thanks for an awesome stay, we will be back!

Comfortable, clean, friendly!
Thank you Bree for Dingosden! A nice 2-bedroom house in Happy Valley, we felt welcome and relaxed as soon as we arrived. We had a view of the ocean from the verandah, a big dining table and nice comfy beds in the 2 bedrooms. Off-grid power, hot shower, fridge and freezer, a gas stove for cooking. And a whistling kettle for our cups of tea, which reminded me of Grandma's house many years ago! I'll definitely stay at Dingosden next time I visit!

Spacious and neat beach cottage. It is set up for the simple life and is airy and got plenty of room. This is a great location to be able to access the north and south parts of the island. Bree is always amazing and accommodating.

Nice place to stay
We’ve been to Fraser numerous times,decided to give Dingos Den a try. Enjoyed the house itself, knew there wasnt going to be any fans so decided to purchase some cheap pedestal fans and bring them along. Once we arrived, we discovered there are no power points in any of the bedrooms or the lounge room which resulted in us having to buy 2 extension cords and a power board from the local store at a ridiculous price, which was a must on 35 degree days. Also there was no shower screen on the shower and water went everywhere with every shower. I understand at peak times prices rise but for the price we paid for the accommodation, I think this should be something for the owner to consider prior to charging premium pricing. All in all, not a bad place to stay.

Lovely and convieant property
This is a great property for exploring the island. The fridge, deep freezer and barbeque are great additions. Happy Valley is 5 minutes away from Eli Creek so you can beat the crowds and secure a spot by the river. Bree also gave us use of the hose to wash off the salt water from under the car. There's limited internet but that seems common on the island. Would recommend to any groups of 5.

Our family had a great week at Dingosden. Perfect location for day trips around the island. The accommodation was lovely, very basic as described but perfect for experiencing a national park with a lot more home comforts than camping! The property manager Bree was very friendly and made our stay really enjoyable. We will be back again for sure!

Authentic K'gari experience
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dingoesden on K'gari. Bree was an excellent host and we appreciated the down-to-earth property being nestled into the dunes and bushland of Happy Valley, well away from resorts and manicured lawns. We visit Fraser Island for an authentic experience to be immersed in the unique natural environment this amazing place has to offer.
