Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
Extremely disappointing stay at Lucas Parklands. This was a very expensive booking , and unfortunately the property did not match the standard you would expect at that price point. The house had a strong musty smell, with mould present in the bathroom. Bedlinen and towels also carried the same damp odour. The dishwasher was rusty, and dishes needed to be washed before use. The spa bath jets had dirt and hair come out when used. Due to a personal emergency, only 2 of the 8 booked guests could attend, and myself and my son was only able to stay 2 of the 4 nights. Despite reaching out, there was little support or flexibility offered to help with changing the dates. Of most concern, both external staircases from the wraparound verandah were zip-tied shut, restricting exit access, which raised serious fire safety concerns. Communication with the host was minimal and abrupt throughout. Overall, this experience did not reflect the premium price paid. I would not stay here again. I have retained photos of the cleanliness and maintenance concerns.

Beautiful property!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lucas Parklands. Everything truely was perfect. Everything you could possibly want for a relaxing weekend away. Friendly owners. Beds are so comfy! Very short drive to Main Street shopping & walks. Fabulous kitchen to cook meals, very large open spaces. Great for us with toddlers. Look forward to coming back.

Relaxing holiday

Even though the weather prevented us from getting out and about, we spent most of our time playing board games on the deck and exploring Montville. We had a great time.

The perfect family holiday

Thank you Lee for a wonderful stay. From the amazing location of the property to the wonderful help you provided with ideas of day trips and activities we could enjoy during our stay, it really was the perfect holiday for our family. We all enjoyed the house, which had plenty of space and everything we needed as well as the walking trails which were accessible right from the backyard (how easy!). We loved being so close to Montville and the thoughtful touches Lee was kind enough to provide such as the fresh herbs, cheese and snacks. Truly one of our favourite places we have stayed. Thanks again! We will be back!

Paradise in the rainforest

Thank you to Lee for the little touches which made our stay so pleasant, from the fresh flowers throughout the house, to the fairy lights and fresh picked herbs for us to use. What a find, minutes from town for shopping and cafes, wineries and the lake. A pleasant bush walk is on the property. If you are lucky enough to stay here with family or friends you will love the well appointed house. So easy to access all the hinterland has to offer. Fantastic long weekend was had by all.

We had a wonderful stay at property. Lee was an amazing host. So helpful and gave us great things to do during our stay. The house was very well equipped with all the essentials. Will definitely stay there again. The only downside was finding out that Stayz hold the bond and do not return your bond money until 3 to 4 weeks after your stay. That to me means that you hold my bond for 2 months and earn interest on my money. I find that absolutely disgraceful and will not book with STAYZ again! Will go direct next time.

A happy stay at Lucas Parklands

We spent a week staying in the new timber cladded house at Lucas Parklands. It was well equipped and well provisioned. The atmosphere was calm and quiet and although the weather was not ideal (we seemed to break the drought) we were very comfortable and there was lots to entertain us inside. The location offers lots of opportunity to explore the gorgeous countryside between Mapleton and Maleny. Nola

Perfect Hinterland Getaway!

Our group stayed overnight at this amazing property near Lake Baroon. All the comforts of home, but with a fabulously tranquil outlook that you won't get in the city! The kitchen was fully equipped and all the beds were comfy and linens fresh and clean. Would highly recommend this property for families or a group of friends looking to enjoy a relaxing trip away. Hope to come back again one day and explore the local area some more!
