We loved the friendly welcome. Virginia is a Hostess with the Mostest! She gave us recommendations where to dine on Good Friday as *everything* was closed! Charlie, the little dog was very engaging. Beautiful bush and rainforest trails to explore. We enjoyed a swim in the beautiful lagoon-style pool.

Great!
We booked at the last minute and the host had our room ready when we pulled up. Host is extremely helpful and friendly. Our room, kitchen and bathroom were extremely clean. Some of the items in the room and decor needs updating badly and the bed was kind of uncomforable. We were provided with tea, coffee and morning biscuits from a local bakery which was a lovely touch! The lodge is in a gorgeous area and you'll feel so peaceful staying here. Recommended.

Carly Many thanks for your comments and pleased you are happy to recommend us. We understand the need for updating and replacing and this is ongoing. Availability of some items makes this a slow process (lamp shades have been on order since November). We love the Mary Valley and we love that you enjoyed it too.

Well maintained property and the rooms had everything that we needed. Malcolm (owner) and Christine are friendly hosts. We were allowed to roam the property and so we went for a nice stroll and explored one afternoon. We were given idea's as to where to go for our evening meal and the option of eating their if we liked. Would stay there again.

The studios were lovely. Ensuite, kitchen, bar stools with a ledge to have breakfast and look out the window. Sat and had drinks outside on the table and chairs in front of our room and watched various honey eaters enjoying the nectar. Bird life was great. Hosts were friendly and informative of the area. Did the Mary Rattler Amamoor-Gympie-Amamoor (only 2km down the road) so great weekend all round.

The lodge exceeded my sister and my expectations.
My sister and I stopped at the lodge on our way from Canberra to Bundaburg and after a long drive the very, very clean beautiful room with the most comfy beds was so welcome. The tranquility and peacefulness helped refresh our tired bodies and minds. The clean fresh pool swim was just what we needed to wake us up for the lovely continental breakfast prior to setting off for the last bit of our journey. Catherine and Malcolm were very welcoming and the stay was totally awesome, we would have loved to stay for more days but couldn't. Would recommend the lodge for a quite weekend away or a refresher stay any time. Loved it.
