Mavis's Cabins @ Mt Warning

the relaxing beautiful decor, the serenity, the bush, the privacy.

Nothing, unfortunately, the house was very different from the photos. Two of the four bedrooms had a strong mould smell, the cleaning was terrible, and the condition was not suitable for a family stay. We had to leave after one night due to health and safety concerns.

Poor overall maintenance and cleanliness. We had to accommodate 8 people using only part of the house, including sofa beds without proper curtains or privacy. Access to the property is via a narrow bridge with flood risk, which was not mentioned in the listing.

Spacious cabin and luxurious gardens

There were a few hints that the place has passed its heyday e.g. the restaurant etc sitting idle and the curtains might need a clean.

Not a good experience. Pre check-in messages seemed automated hence not answering our questions at first. Self check-in did work well at the end. The cabin itself was OK, however the equipment was very poor, especially in regards to its price. Frying pan in bad shape, cooking hood with defective light, worn through mozzie net, TV connexion issues. It is only upon arrival that one discovers the "flood emergency kit".(locked). Very disappointing, especially for this price segment.

Quaint cabin nestled in nature

Restaurant wasn’t open Mondays and shut at 3pm

A nice refurbished farm building, comfortable and picturesque

All was fine

Beautiful gardens, large open areas.

Upon arrival staying in the Old Dairy Cottage we a had dead moth and other dead insects on the bed sheets. The kitchen lights did not work, the ceiling fans worked in lounge room but the sound and mad wobble made us feel it was dangerous. A nice portion of the outside patio floor was covered in moss. The inside floors were all very worn old concrete. The photos shown on Booking.com were not a true reflection of this place. Feel pretty ripped off paying $270 a night here.

Property needs a little TLCLong drop toiletNot extremely safe for dogs, keep them on the lead due to snakes No dish washer Some of the chairs were rotting and wood needed replacing

The character of the cottage was gorgeous, as is the property itself. And being able to go out into the kitchen garden and pick some tomatoes and basil was special. Grateful for the air conditioning. And swimming spots in the creek! It was entirely what we needed travelling at Christmas - New Year with our dog.

A larger bed would have been more ideal. There is enough space in the room.

Beautiful location, lovely grounds, comfortable and charming. We stayed in the Old Dairy which was spacious and well-equipped. The bathroom is the standout. Recommend!

The cabin was clean.

The drive up to the cabin was poorly maintained and not a great experience if not in 4x4. Any view of Mount Warning obscured by vegetation. Biggest drawback was the drop toilet in the ensuite. The smell was pretty revolting and permeated the whole bedroom / cabin. A very poor experience.

Location was peaceful, plenty of space to roam around. The room and facilities were very comfortable. The composting toilet was a novel surprise but seemed very effective.

The lighting could have been brighter but that’s all. The stove wouldn’t ignite but an electric lighter was provided the next day.

Beautiful location and well kept grounds. Kids loved exploring the garden.

Stunning location! The Queen Cabin (Snug) was larger than expected. It had everything we needed. Our grandson loved the outdoor bath. We really couldn’t fault our stay. The grounds are beautifully kept. We had a lovely morning walk around the property and gardens and the small playground was another hit with our grandson.

Everything was great!

I had seen the property and friends had stayed there a lot before the log cabin we stayed in was very nice. It would’ve been great if they had been in a pod. Coffee machine, and regular breakfast bowls as I took cereal but didn’t find anything to put it in. It was disappointing that we didn’t know that Mavis‘s kitchen is now closed no dinner or breakfast that was one of the main reasons we went, but didn’t see when booking, but it has now closed. I did look on the website but it’s in fine print right at the end of the page there was nobody around no staff no other people a little bit like a ghost town.

The property is lovely. Just a shame about the restaurant closing. There is nothing else on offer just a place to sleep.

Stayed in the Log Cabin with our dog and we all loved it. Wide open spaces everywhery but nice and private at our cabin.

The step down from the toilet is really, really dangerous. Should install a sturdy grab rail.

Cabin is set on a large grassy property with rainforest plantings, a large pond and surrounded by native rainforest. We'll equipped kitchen and comfortable sitting area and sunny verandah

Traffic noise on nearby road, lots of dust around bedhead (bad for asthmatic); large step up to toilet in bathroom ( dangerous stepping down at night);creaky bed when turning over at night; very poor communication from owners - they cancelled my initial booking, requested payment information which was already supplied at booking by Booking .com, didn't acknowledge subsequent email providing said information. I had the feeling of absentee owners.

The amenities & lush green garden were top notch. Consideration towards environmental conversation is admiring. Composting is a very good initiative.

Beautiful property & gardens really nice, comfy bed, nice bathroom, kitchen wasn’t very clean and we had to wash everything before we could use it, had issues with the gas cooktop and had trouble getting hold of night staff to assist, eventually figured it out ourselves. Was a bit disappointing that we weren’t told that there was roadworks next to the property which caused a lot of noise.

Kitchen cutlery still had food on it, frying pan was very dirty. Gas cooktop switch not working and one gas tank was empty and we had to turn on another tank. Was hard to get hold of
