An original gem, very well kept. I hope they never change it. It's a North Queensland icon. It's out of town but very handy if you're staying enroute to somewhere else. ##### Trudi Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ron 26 Jul 2025 Liked: Amenities Everything was satisfactory. Love the little extras like plates for meals. Bowls would also be awesome for breakfast cereal. The little tray of wash up items under the hand basin was a lovely thoughtful surprise. Bed cover is a bit old and could do with replacing. Also our neighbours were a bit noisy late at night (after 10) and early morning (before 6). Overall a pleasant overnight stay on our way home. What a beautiful sunrise. ##### Ron Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Dareyle 9 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Sraff friendly.

A nice Fish take away 4 minutes drive towards Bowen, great. ##### Carsten Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Cameron 19 Feb 2025 Disliked: Amenities The property was not as advertised, being pool side. Also the milk was off and opened previously. First turned up and nobody on site. No meals available. ##### Cameron Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael 26 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Older place with pet friendly vibe. Showing its age but everything was functional. Staff was trying to make our stay good, but we were only there overnight. Cute pool, easy acces from highway, still using physical keys. When you arrive you check in and your keys are in the room. Unusual for US folk, maybe this is common in Australia? We were travelling in a rental car so we were driving up the coast from Sydney, Port Macquarie, Childers, Bowen, Cooktown, Richmond Hill, Emerald, Morere, and back to Sydney.
