"We stayed in a 1-bedroom cabin — older style but comfortable and quiet with good air conditioning.

Saltbush Retreat
"We stayed in one of the 10 Slab Huts, very rustic but comfortable. Close to tourist locations with QANTAS Founders across road and Stockmans Hall of Fame both within short walking distance. The only drawback would be the traffic noise from highway with road trains travelling 24/7."

Longreach Tourist Park
"Great staff, changed our booking without any issues. The online description of the Ringers Wuarters didn’t indicate the bathroom was shared. Cabin was perfect for our stay. Quiet, not too far out."
