It was exceptionally clean and quiet and close to the main attractions of Longreach. The bed was very comfortable. An added bonus was the early morning visit by four lovely kangaroos outside the kitchen window.

The resort was built to try and create a bush type experience whilst still maintaining amenity
John, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed in the Slab Huts, they were a very authentic feeling replication of slab timbered, but with insulated corrugated iron roofed huts, very roomy with great facilities and gave a true feeling of outback history. They were large and extremely comfortable and exactly what was portrayed on their website. We totally commend the operators who went out of their way to make our stay memorable.

Amazing! Staff were fantastic, property was beautiful. Inside our cabin was clean and fresh with the air con on for us. Was the only place we felt comfortable using the bedding supplied in our entire trip across Australia! Reception also has giftware that was affordable.
