Our time at Pelicans Rest was absolutely delightful! It was everything we needed and provided for a very relaxing peaceful time. Quiet, close to town, clean, great views, terrific bird life and a comfy bed. Couldn’t have asked for more!

Great setup in the caravan with lots of little bits and pieces for cooking etc, having a tap with drinking water and a gas cooker was really helpful. Nice quiet spot with lots of space for a tent as well. Creek was great to cool off in, kids loved it and want to come back, really lovely and thoughtful hosts.

Absolutely beautiful, surrounded by lush forest and a flowing crystal clear creek. There is a lovely walk that runs alongside the creek, which ends with a fabulous tree swing. It’s very peaceful and quiet, with plenty of bird life and a few wombats bobbing around during the early hours of the morning. Shanti and Sol sent a lovely welcoming text and then left me to enjoy the serenity. One of the best places I have stayed throughout my travels around Australia. I look forward to returning.

Loved my stay at the lagoon cabin. Really enjoyed the views from the deck, kangaroos were pretty cool too. Inside the cabin was very clean and everything was provided. Would stay here again if I’m travelling this way.

Honestly one of the most calming and relaxing places me and my boyfriend have stayed in! We got the cabin lodge and we were shocked at how beautiful it was. I wish I could show pictures of the mornings we woke up too. It was just beautiful. Even though this place doesn’t have showers the owners provide you with your own wash bath and clothes so you can bathe. This place was so practical and so calming. We would 100% go back there again!!

Weekend Trip to Siam Sanctuary

We had 4 people, two slept in the van and the other 2 slept in the tent that we brought. We had a very good night, chatting with each other, sharing laughs, talking funny childhood memories, along side camp fire. It is the one of the forgettable experiences in my life. I also recommended this place to all of friends.
