I loved the the water front, me and the Bois were able to walk across the road, have a fish and a few beers right at the comfort of the front door. Bottle shop was 2 minutes walk away, the food there is to die for. I highly recommend this place to any one and I will definitely be returning customers. Thanks once again

Worth stopping at

A short 2 night stay on our way from Sydney back to Brisbane after Christmas. Great location to be able to walk everywhere. The town was a buzz with holiday makers. Long wait times with food at most places as you would expect this time of the year
