Great place to stat
The house was very suitable for our family gathering, even had Christmas tree left up for us. The pool was excellent and had lots of pool toys for the teenagers. Lots of areas for people to join together and also to have space to themselves. A great location, handy to shops and restaurants, and to sightsee including a trip to Stradbroke island on the ferry. Lots of handy inclusions in the kitchen and bathrooms.

About the host

Hosted by Debbie-Lyn Davidson

Host profile image
My husband and myself have lived in the Redlands City area for over 25 year and want to help others experience the wonderful life- style available to families only 40 minutes to the Gold Coast and only 25 minutes to Brisbane City. Living in this area and bringing up 4 grown children in our beautiful home we want others to be able to have a fabulous experience exploring Brisbane, Gold Coast and Bay Islands. We have explored other countries through airbnb host and want to offer exciting adventures to others coming to Brisbane.

Why they chose this property

Our beautiful home in an acreage estate is a wonderful place to call home while away from yours. We love all things with history and a story, so much of what you will see in our home has special memories for us. An antique, vintage theme from yesteryear is throughout our home with luxuries added for a home away from home for your family and friends. On a 6000square block you don't have to worry about neighbours nearby or making a noise splashing around in the pool. It is the ideal home for an extended family travelling together or couples ready to explore Brisbane, Gold Coast and the Islands while coming home to a space to relax, unwind and forget about the bustle of the city. You will be only minutes from cinemas, award winning restaurants, shopping centres and only a few minutes from the ferries to explore the Bay Islands. With a Koala reserve on our property you may even get a visit from either a roaming koala or kangaroos that frequent our front yard. Small gatherings with family and friends are what this home is for but loud, drunken parties are not permitted.

What makes this property unique

The neighborhood is a beautiful place for a morning or late afternoon walks as you will usually see wallabies roaming the many beautiful acreage homes in this lovely acreage estate. It is so close to the cinemas, restaurants, and shops but you could be miles away in this tucked away retreat. Fantastic to be so close to some many wonderful Aussie experiences. You are within walking distance from a wonderful international array of restaurants and dining including Indian, Italian, Japanese, and pubs as well as quaint coffee shops or juice bars for your morning breakfast at Victoria Point Lake side. Also 5 min from some award-wining restaurants The Lighthouse Restaurant Cleveland- Absolute waterfront venue with stunning views overlooking Moreton Bay and its surrounding islands.
