Relaxing and tranquill

Very impressed with our stay. We completely enjoyed our stay, owners were very accommodating with any issues that we had and when power lost confirmed we were okay and offered wood for a camp style fire. The boys enjoyed going to the jetty and throwing a line in the water and I enjoyed relaxing on the back undercover looking out at the water. Definitely plan on coming back again

Great dog friendly home

My family including our fur baby recently stayed at this delightful home in Hervey Bay. The home is well positioned back from the road in a quiet street. The home is well appointed, it was very clean and very well organised! The kids very much enjoyed the children’s room, they were excited upon arrival to find the lovely soft toys and books available for them to enjoy! The main bedroom was lovely, although we did use the back room as a dressing room so we could unpack our clothes properly as we stayed a week. The kitchen is the most well equipped and we found it very easy to navigate unlike some other rental properties we have stayed in. The laundry is a good size, we made full use of this due to a football camp our children participated in, my only suggestion here would be to include a drying machine as we had a few days of rain which made it a little difficult (there is however a portable clothes dryer which we put under a fan to help dry things). The yard was perfect for the children and our dog. Very secure and a good size! Also very private which we liked. We enjoyed a couple of dinners out on the patio. The local area is lovely, we took our bikes and explored the rail trail cycling over 50km on one day. We also cycled down to the pier and enjoyed watching the sunset as a family which was spectacular. Hervey Bay isn’t far from Maryborough so we visited this historic town and very much enjoyed exploring, we came back wanting to watch Mary Poppins! A lovely stay thank you!
