Very quiet and secluded.
The property was good, it was what we expected, the only disappointment was we did not have easy access to internet service. I required internet service 24/7. I had to run it off my phone which was fine when we there but not when we went out. The owner did all he could to help me out. Otherwise all good.

Relax by the Dam
This property is amazing. The cabin was clean and tidy and totally self contained. It has a wonderful fenced in area for the dogs so they were able to run free. The dam has an abundance of birdlife that we could just sit back, relax and watch. Can't wait to get back again. need to leave

Loved the charm of the cabin. Beautiful outlook over the dam. Worth going up Ninderry mountain just for the stunning view at the top. Handy to beach.

Stayed here purely so we could bring our Golden Retriever for a holiday. Loved that the property was fully fenced and right next to the dam so he could have a swim. Bit of a drive to nearest takeaway etc but liked how quiet it was. The converted shed is very basic but was still comfortable and clean. We would stay again and can recommend, especially if you have dogs.

Perfect getaway for couple time + spirited dog
Farm life to beach life just 10 mins apart. Modern self contained cabin on farm with everything you need right down to mosquito coils. Peaceful, quiet & comfortable farm living. Fully fenced with a large dam so your dog can roam free & have a swim. Ours has selective hearing & is an escape artist so we had her on a long telecom lead in case we had to reel her in 😄 The large dam has long reeds & lily pillys in it but Doug the owner gave us access to the paddock next door so our staffy could swim in the smaller dam, lily pilly free. She loves to swim but not the strongest swimmer, so was perfect for her. Best thing too, Coolum beach is only a 10 min drive away & welcomes dogs on leads outside the flagged area. We were told too that at a certain time it is lead free. You would have to check on the time frame with the council. Doug was a perfect host & knowing he lived on the property added to our comfortable stay. He lets you be but he's just a phone call away if you need anything. Farm life to beach life in 10 mins was awesome 👌 We will definitely be back. Night time brings out flying ants ! Yes true, so our advice, keep your windows up in your car & use minimum lighting at night. But hey that's farm life 🙂 We honestly enjoyed our stay & highly recommend. Thank you again Doug for being the perfect host & making our stay wonderful 🙂 Tracey, Wally ,& Maci 🐕

Peace, Freedom & Everything You Need to Relax
My partner & I travel frequently to exolore new areas a little off the beaten track & take a break from big city life in Beisbane. This beautiful peoperty is among our favourite stays on our journey so far. It is homey & basic & has everything you need to relax & unwind. The dam, with its gorgeous lillies & birdlife are a joy to behold, just being beside it every day are enough to melt your cares & concerns away, with a stunning view of the mountains beyond the rich green spacious paddocks around you. Sunup, sundown, rain or shine, it's never a bad time to be there, kicking back with a drink in hand. The bath is a Must Try. Comfy bed & pull out lounge bed for 2. Even Bowie, our 11 year old Boarder Collie loved trotting through the grounds & sleeping outdoors undisturbed. Absolutely brilliant stay, we'll be back. Enjoy this hidden treasure while it lasts. 5 Stars

Great little getaway
Lovely cabin by the dam. I loved that I could bring my dog for the stay. The gate for the paddock that the cabin is in can be shut giving a secure yard for dogs to roam around. Doug and his little border collie, Molly, were very welcoming hosts.

Weekend Getaway
From the moment we arrived, it was relaxing. We took time for star gazing and toasting marshmallows on the campfire. One of the goats had 3 triplets while we were there so had the opportunity to get up close and personal. The cattle were beautiful and quiet too, and Molly was the best four-legged host leading us around the paddocks. Doug was a great host too!
