Beautiful cabins, but ours sadly was not cleaned properly when we arrived. Toilet was a mess, crumbs on the bench, dirty utensils. Not good enough for the money we paid. Staff reacted quickly to our complaint but in Covid times the cabins should be cleaned properly. Beautiful spot, brand new cabins but just disappointing to spend so much money and feel disappointed within a few minutes of getting there.

Hidden Gem! Halfway between Sydney and the Gold Coast, this was the perfect place to stop for 2 nights on the way home. Super easy check in system and easy to contact hosts. Beautifully designed and decorated Hamptons style cabins overlooking the river. With only 9 cabins on site the perfect amount of peace and privacy is maintained. The cabins were like new, amazingly set out for families or couples alike. The swimming pool kept the kids happy, a quick trip into town to stock the fridge and we were set - sitting on the timber deck, wine in hand watching the dolphins swim past. Kangaroos wander around the cabins at night, you pass many on the short stroll to the Riverside Tavern for dinner. Next time we will bring the scooters and stay longer!
