About this property

Crab Cooker Cottage - River Heads
**Crab Cooker Cottage is located at River Heads approx 15 mins out of Hervey Bay**

If ever a holiday home deserved the title `Gateway to Fraser Island' the extensively renovated Crab Cooker Cottage is it.
The cottage offers 3 large bedrooms all with king beds and ensuites, spacious living areas downstairs, several aircon units and an outlook comprising only shades of green and blue.
Passing traffic is minimal and mature shady trees occupy the front of the property.
The Fraser Island Boat ramp and barge lie about 800 metres away and the local shops 400 metres.
Hervey Bay airport and the town itself are 12-20 minutes by car depending which part of town is your destination.
There is plenty of room for your boat or RV to park off road and though your pet is welcome the property is not fenced.

We loved the crab cooker cottage. We had to leave early due to being unwell. We will definitely return.

Holiday with my wife and our Friends visiting Fraser Island and Harvey Bay

Excellent accommodation for family and friends together with all you need for a home away from home. Cosy beds and all amenities good quality and clean. Bring along your boat to go fishing or simply hop on the ferry a few minutes drive to the River Head barge and enjoy a 4WD day through Fraser Islands rain forest and endless sandy beaches.
