About this property

Family Home - Pets welcome . 15km to Australia Zoo, 20km to amazing beaches.

  • Beautiful, historic 3 BR Queenslander in the heart of Mooloolah Valley Sunshine Coast, only a short drive to the iconic Australia Zoo and the pristine beaches of the Sunny Coast. Mooloolah is a quiet township with a gorgeous village centre complete with IGA, bakery, cafe, Thai and more. Surrounded by beautiful national parks to explore and the refreshing Ewen Maddock Dam to swim in.

    The house is very comfortable, plenty of board games, books and puzzles to keep the kids entertained. You’ll love the convenience of being extremely close to the local shops, playgrounds and skate park. No need to drive into town.
    The property has a big, fully fenced backyard and fully fenced front yard, the house is very private.
    The huge rear deck has a beautiful views towards Maleny, relax on the outside furniture or have dinner on the 8 seater table watching the sunset. The gorgeous deck is loved by all our guests.

    Linen, bedding and towels are provided. New air conditioner installed 23/1/24, new oven installed 12/7/2023.
    Wi-fi available.

Cute house

Nat was a gem. She was super friendly and checked in often without being overbearing. The house was cute and cozy. The location is fantastic, being within walking distance to the IGA and the bakery. The local bakery is definitely worth the trip. Their coffee is great, and all their bakery items were delicious.

Friendly family home

The house was well-appointed and friendly, even if a little quirky. The back verandah was a lovely place to chill out and look over the view. The host was lovely - when our gas bottle ran out she was there within minutes with a new one. Shops only a short stroll away. Very convenient. Only 25 min to beaches and less to Australia Zoo.

Comfortable home for a quiet week away

We were after a quiet week away with our adult kids and our dog and that is just what we got. Nat's place is a great place to relax and unwind. If you are after modern and lux, this isn't the house for you, but if like us you want cosy and easy to live in, then Nat's place is great.Nat was very easy to contact and I felt if any issues came up she would have been ready to help at any time.Mooloolah Valley is quiet and pretty. House is close to everything you could need, and there are some great walks nearby.

Australia zoo holiday

Nat's place was great and so close to Australia Zoo for our 2 days there. It felt homely with a firepit out the back, a nice big verandah for chillaxing and games and books, trampoline, bikes and balls for the kids 8 and 10. Nat always communicated well and went out of her way to make sure we were happy with everything during our stay, and was very hospitable even leaving a few extra treats for us. Good location in town too with IGA, Bottle-o, Indian takeaway, Bakery and more just a short walk. Thanks again Nat for a memorable family break

Off to the Zoo

Natalie’s home is comfy and welcoming . We enjoyed the very homely feel and settled in easily. Natalie’s communication with us throughout the booking process was exceptional. We enjoyed a visit to Australia Zoo and visiting the beaches and Eumundi markets . We travelled with teenage kids , who enjoyed the myriad of games in the house! We found Natalie’s home a very economical option for us with a well set up kitchen and local shops for grocery etc very convenient. I’m sure we’ll be back Thanks Nat 🤗 We

We loved the home, its layout, doorways left and right, the contents and yard. The back covered area was a focal point for us to relax and enjoy the areas serenity and especially birdlife. Less than a minute to the shops with a great coffee, treats an IGA and local towns for a wider experience. This Queenslander style house is quirky and cool, a great kitchen and our Labrador loved the yard and deck. The bed was super comfortable with plenty of room. Would be great for families or couples.
