글래스 하우스 마운틴 에코로지

Keith was a friendly, attentive host who made us feel very welcome. Highly recommend the breakfast featuring many of the tropical fruits growing on the grounds! Wish we’d had more time to explore and in less oppressive heat. We’d already been but would recommend as a base for a night or two if visiting Australia Zoo up the road. A short drive to Glasshouse Mountains Village for provisions or dinner at the Glasshouse Tavern. The communal kitchen in a railway carriage looked great.

Pretty unique place - nicely appointed rooms with very cool shared kitchen very well appointed in an old tram. Quirky and clean, handy to all the mountain walks in the area. Close to the tavern down the road. Comfortable bed. Would stay again if we were in the area

The Ecolodge is the perfect place to 'get away' from the ties of the regular world! We were in the Victorian railway carriage, which was an absolute delight. Keith & his lovely hostess made us very welcome during our 2 night stay. We loved the breakfast & sharing this time with the other guests. The grounds are a delight to walk through & enjoy, especially seeing where the excellent coffee is grown (available to purchase too) & the various fruits, but the 'piece de resistance' were the numerous quirky pieces of art work scattered around the gardens. Delightful!

We stayed in the 2 bedroom suite which was perfect for what we needed. We only stayed one night as we were passing through on a road trip. It’s a perfect location for a longer stay to explore the Glass House Mountain area. The train carriage kitchen is perfect for preparing your own meals and there are heaps of things to do on the grounds including walks and the orchard area. There are books, games and heaps of comfy places to sit and be peaceful. It was so nice to read about the history of the eco lodge and Sally showed us around everything personally when we arrived. A cheeky possum (I hope it was a possum) was a little noisy in the roof during the night but it was otherwise a lovely stay with heaps of character and a serene and peaceful vibe. We visited Australia Zoo and the Glass House mountains lookout and Lookout Cafe while in the area.

In a quiet, relaxing environment, my 4 month old son and I had a good 2 nights at this renovated old church turned lodge. Keith was very welcoming, despite my son being grizzly upon arrival, and showed me everything I needed. My request for a portacot was accommodated and the room had an old school charm that oozed "relax". For supplies, the Beerwah shops are only a 10 minute drive away, with a few food take away store options for a quick and easy meal, or a supermarket to get ingredients to cook your own. The lodge boasts an adequately equipped kitchen in a converted old train carriage (which I believe Keith said he went to school in originally), making food preparation easy and accessible. A couple of things to note for those travelling here - if you're not used to the area, bring insect repellent, as the mosquito's can be a bit brutal (available for purchase in reception also). If you suffer from hayfever, arrive prepared with antihistamines during Spring - the pollen count in the Sunshine Coast hinterland can get pretty high. - it is an ecolodge as per the accommodation description - quaint and aged and simple. There is no TV and mobile phone coverage can be a little patchy (there is free wifi available). It is not (and doesn't pretend to be) a 5-star, luxury resort. - don't bother to pack a book - there is a vast array of books available in the general sitting area for communal reading. - wildlife is normal in this area, including snakes (generally of the harmless variety I'm informed, but I'm scared nonetheless) - when driving here, look for the sandwich board out the front of what looks like a normal house driveway - the lodge is hidden out the back. - give yourself time to explore the lodge itself and its surrounds - only staying here 2 nights as a base to visit family I didn't have time to do this. This is my only regret of my stay. A lot of work has been put into the lodge to restore historical items, maintain a beautiful garden and provide a relaxing environment. Enjoy and savour it.

Keith was such a lovely host. My bungalow was so beautiful. The bed was like sleeping on a cloud, the shower pressure was great, such a quaint, charming place to recharge after a mountain walk. Climbed Mt Ngungun after a glorious sleep. Such a wonderful mini break to fill your soul.
