Our stay with our grown children was amazing. The place is immaculate and the photos do not do it justice. A wonderful place for family and friends to stay all together.We have told many others & will definitely be back.Thank you for the opportunity to share your beautiful home.
We've stayed here a couple of times and each time it has been an absolute treat. The property is easily large enough for our group of 10, and the Tennis court and pool are a rare treat to have all to ourselves. I highly recommend this property to anyone in a large group looking to take it easy.
We would stay here again in a heartbeat! This is a well maintained, beautifully presented holiday home. Equipped with an outdoor kitchen and multiple outdoor living areas it was the perfect set up for our early family Christmas. We loved the pool, tennis courts, ping pong and darts and all the necessary sporting equipment was provided. Inside the house was spacious and beautifully furnished.
We often find that what is in the pictures makes something look better than it is. This stay was even better than it looked. What a fabulous home and everything is thought through with care so that our stay was so relaxing and enjoyable.
We were a family group celebrating my 60th birthday together. The house was spotless and so well equiped with everything we needed to make the weekend memorable. I feel that the photos do not do this house justice. It is even more fabulous than the photos suggest. We had a great time playing tennis and cooling off in the pool. The firepit was a great spot on a chilly night. There was so much space for everyone and we all enjoyed our stay tremendously.
We loved this huge Beautiful home only 10 minutes from the Australia Zoo and 1 hour from the Koala Sanctuary. Comfortable beds, plenty of bathrooms, huge yard to enjoy with a tennis court and ping pong table! Very quiet neighborhood!
Highly recommend for the price......
Exactly as pictured!
Great place to stay when visiting the Australia Zoo
This may be the best VRBO we have ever stayed. With a pool, tennis courts, basketball hoop, ping pong table, out door grilling, fire pit - there’s plenty of activities for everyone.
High end appliances, great layout, kitchen well stocked, multiple living areas for everyone to spread out, large lot to explore.
Terrific and responsive host. They went above and beyond ensuring families will be comfortable staying here. You will not be disappointed with this property!
We spent a fabulous weekend in the house with close friends. The house is equipped with everything you need or would want - from the well equipped kitchen, with plenty of pots, pans, dishes, cooking gadgets to the variety of games and activities. Lots of fun had on the tennis court, in the pool and in the darts/table tennis area. In the evenings we enjoyed the fire pit and the gas fire in the living area. And the most comfortable beds.
We will definitely be coming back with our friends and would definitely look at coming back with our children and their small families.

Our stay in the glass house mountains was a perfect location for three generations of family to come together, relax, explore and catch-up. The property is immaculately kept and there were so many little touches that enhanced our stay. Thank you.
As a group of work friends, we go on a yearly girls trip. This year we decided to try the sunny coast and we are already planning on our return next year! Brigid was such a great host, the house is absolutely beautiful and we really enjoyed being able to relax while also enjoying the pool & tennis court!
Huge property, immaculately maintained, generously stocked with everything you need for an amazing stay. Host is lovely, prompt to respond and great to deal with. There’s something for everyone and plenty to do regardless of the weather. High quality appliances, fully equipped kitchen, bath and beach towels supplied, coffee for Smeg coffee maker, generous goody basket and all equipment to play tennis, basketball and table tennis. Perfect for an extended family get together. Thanks Brigid. We loved every minute.
This property was exactly as listed, we had a truly wonderful stay here and I recommend it to anyone looking for somewhere to stay in the area. Tons of things to do with a group of friends, great amenities, and an excellent host!
This beautiful property and home was an amazing getaway. The house is outstanding with everything you will ever need for your stay and the immaculate pool and tennis court with basketball court kept us entertained day and night.
The property owners were so lovely and easy to deal with.
We will be coming back here more.
Such a wonderful place to stay, it was very clean, renovated, and the facilities were even better! A great property, we'll likely return in the future!
Our group consisted of three generations and all ages were catered for. The kids loved the the pool and the adults played tennis, basketball, darts and frisbee throwing to name a few of the activities Our mornings started with a lovely bush walk followed by a morning swim.
The bedrooms are large and airy, the ducted air is amazing and there are sooo many outside areas and zones to chill out at that meant everyone could find a quiet spot if needed. Also lots of large seated areas to come together as a family to eat as one big family or play board games.
We will definitely try to book again but it’s very popular so it may be difficult to get some common available dates.
Thanks for your hospitality, Brigid.
The Glasshouse property was accommodation for all ages. From the beautifully kept grounds with tennis, basketball, pool, fire pit, table tennis, teenage hang out area to the beautifully appointed house. The family said it was the most comfortable bed they have ever slept in. Brigid was so helpful and responsive. If you need a place to stay where the kids can do their own thing then this is a great choice.
