Lovely little cabin, very clean and well presented. Beautiful setting and lots of wildlife. Was perfect for the dogs to enjoy the freedom and security of the fully fenced paddock. Great location, only 10 mins to the Coolum dog beach. Easy process for checking in and owners very prompt and helpful with a slight issue with the water. Thank you for a lovely relaxing few days.

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.

Beautiful Farm Stay

The accodation is spacious for a couple or couple with child or in my case 3 adults and a dog. There is a queen bed, queen sofa bed and you get an entire paddock to yourself with dog wire fence so my dog could roam around freely. There is also a little body of water that you can take a provided tinny and boogy boards on, plus Coolum Beach is only 12 minutes away. The location is also very picturesque. Everything I wanted was provided, plus some extras. I was impressed and would stay here again.

Host was very welcoming and accommodating for us and our nervous dog. So nice to find a place that allows dogs inside (as long as they are clean and not on beds or couches of course). Our dog stays inside at night at home so it was nice to have him inside with us at night. We all loved waking up to the sound of nature and i was delighted to hear and see my fav - the black cockatoo! We enjoyed meeting the gorgeous resident border collie and seeing the cows and goats in the adjoining paddock. The stay was peaceful and within easy access to all the sunny coast has to offer. The cabin had all the amenities you need. Thanks - we will be back!

The cabin is even better in person then in the photos. The absolute perfect spot to sit back and relax. The views were absolutely beautiful of the pond and the cows and goats. Very peaceful and quiet location. We loved it so much we wanted to stay another night but it was already booked. We can’t wait to come back.
