Good location, easy to find. Cabin met my requirements and great for my fur baby to run around. Close to Stumers Creek which was a fabulous off leash dog beach. Host was lovely and left you alone to be in your own space. No Wi-Fi available.

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.

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.
