My family and I had a pleasant stay at the Gatekeeper’s Cabin. The bed was comfortable as was the indoor temperature. We had everything we needed as far as amenities, and our kids really, really loved being able to walk outside and pat cows and horses each day! The mountain views were awesome—a beautiful sight to wake up to!I think a new sofa bed for secondary guests (or kids) would be a fantastic addition, as well as a mirror and ironing board (considering the wedding destination that the Scenic Rim is), but these definitely were not dealbreakers! It was, overall, quite a comfy stay, and great value for money in this area. I’d definitely consider staying here again, if ever in Boonah.

Quiet country stay with lovely views.

This is a great place for a country stay with plenty of room, a lovely view and a comfy bed. If you enjoy a bit of animal/birdlife then you'll love this place. Cows and horses grazing in paddocks nearby, with bird feeders attracting a variety of local wildlife.

Just a great place to unwind and relax. Check in easy, host very friendly. If you want somewhere to eat locally we were impressed with the The Roadvale Hotel about a 15 minute drive away from the cottage. Would def recommend anybody going here for lunch or dinner. Peaceful stay
