Hedlow Retreat was simply delightfu
Hedlow Retreat provided a superb setting for our recent long weekend. Although our booking was late, we were graciously offered an alternative campsite within the retreat, which proved to be both delightful and private. We had afternoon shade from the tree and the creek in our views.
Merle and Peter ( only babysitting the venue) were delightful from the get-go! They were so welcoming and always checked if we needed anything.
Hedlow Retreat is just gorgeous, a perfect country setting. The creek's right at your campsite with kayaks and canoes to use at your leisure. If your teens are older, tell them to bring their fishing rods; ours caught a barra upstream while canoeing.
The facilities were always spotless. The campsite had lovely mown grass and a well-maintained driveway, so the dust wasn't bad.
Our only minor complaint was the mosquitoes. After the rain, they were everywhere, and we didn't pack enough repellent. But a quick trip to Yeppoon for extra coils, spray and candles solved that.
We can't wait to go back to Hedlow Retreat!
