Prepare for internet detox
The hosts are wonderful, but the rural area has some pros and cons. The only mobile provider that has one bar of service in one room of the house is Telstra. No Vodafone, no Optus. Even Telstra goes to 3G quite often.
During the storms hot water was switching off, had to contact the host to get it back on.
No screens in some rooms, and even with the screens I had 5 different types of bugs crawling all over my bed in droves each night. Might suit an eager entomologist.
The property doesn’t have working locks, we were advised not to leave any valuables.
Lots of dilapidated barns and sheds on the land, might be not safe for really young kids.
Water might be drinkable but tasted different, ended up buying 10l cans from the grocery store.
Very peaceful and quiet, lots of puzzles, dvds and books. A working dishwasher and a grill.
If you decide to do horse riding at the Cowboy Up, it’s better to take the highway. Google maps suggests a 15 minutes route that requires a 4WD and to open and shut some gates, remove fallen trees from the road and takes about 35 minutes.
