Take me back to the country!

I love staying here. The beautiful scenery and the opportunity for puppies to run free. The hosts are fantastic. The grandchildren loved feeding the goats, cows and sheep.

Such a beautiful quaint cabin. The puppies loved it even in the pouring rain. Hopefully next time we can explore a little bit.

My dogs loved the dam.

I am so impressed with Doug and Marilyn's friendliness and prompt responses to my queries. Their property is perfect. Very comfortable and quite retro. I would definitely recommend their cabin to anyone looking for a quiet retreat. Their cows, sheep and goats are a bonus.Thank you so much.Jo

Quick little getaway!

This place was perfect for a quick little get away to the sunshine coast. Everything was as described.It quite literally was a 'cabin in the dam paddock' and that added to novelty of this quant accommodation choice. Our kids enjoyed the few farm animals around and would have loved it even more if we had been able to get a small fire going at night. Although we had to tackle a few bugs at night, it didn't detract from the vibe.I would book here again (and recommend to others) if it suited. Thanks for the Stayz

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

Maybe some instructions of what to do in the area, walks where you can take dogs etc.

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
