About this house rental

Large and comfortable Coastal Queenslander, styled for a relaxed vacation for the quiet we all desire. No earplugs required unless you want to deaden the sound of silence! We have carefully restored this tired old vintage to a youthful house that has an energy to invoke the most dormant talent in you.
We have a full spacious kitchen, seperate dining, lounge room that connects to the super comfy verandah, 3 bedrooms, great laundry, seperate powder room and bathroom. The yards are spacious, and the back deck invites you out for sunbathing, a cold beer, and the spectacular night sky, so bring your telescope.
The house is situated between a wonderful lake that is home to some rare birds and wildlife and the beach which is a fantastic wildlife and beach combing location, as well as the kiteboarding you can do on such a flat open bay with no boat traffic to negate. We are pet friendly, but ask you to be a responsible pet owner. The home is fully fenced, but has many young plants to be conscious of. The restaurant up the road 'Goodies' and 'The Salty Squid' are dog friendly, so you can include your pets in your holiday here.
For whale, scuba, fishing and Fraser island enthusiasts, tours can be booked in Hervey Bay, which is only 20min away.
convenience stores are from 5 minutes away to major shopping complex 15 min.
Off-road cycling tracks are behind the lake near the community hall.
Wetland walking tracks are close by too.

Never been to toogoom before, was such a great place to experience. Loved the house so much, it had so much character and was really a lovely house for my family to stay at. Would definitely stay again. Perfect for kids, so much paddle boarding in the calm water. Didn’t have to travel so far to get to the water.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in "The Nest" a gorgeous renovated Queenslander! What a beautiful place to stay, so quiet and peaceful and only 3 minutes walk to the beautiful beach. Our 2 fur babies also had a wonderful time as this property was very pet friendly and clean with no carpet, fully fenced yard and balcony. Comfy bed, air conditioning and all the essentials provided made for a relaxing stay. The host was easy to deal with and provided fast responses to any questions we had. Toogoom is a hidden gem and we loved swimming and fishing in the calm bay at Fixter Park with the fur kids. We loved it here and will definitely be back again! Thank you.

We loved staying at the quaint little Queenslander which was only 300 metres from the beach. Even our furbaby had a great time. The house was clean, beautifully presented and had everything you would need. If you want to get away from the rat race then this would be the place to stay.

My husband & I and our Scottish terrier Donald had the best stay. Check in easy, house immaculately clean. Everything you could possibly need is there even down to a complimentary bottle of Red. The yard is safe for your animal & easy walk to the beach. Great little café down the road. We wouldn't hesitate to stay again which is on the cards as our main visit to Hervey Bay was whale watching & unfortunately was cancelled at the last minute due to bad weather. Anyhoo gives us an excuse to visit here again. Thank you Sonya you definitely tick all the boxes. Karen Chris & Donald.

Although we really only spent time at the house sleeping, it was such a beautiful property with everything we needed at hand. The gorgeous veranda at the front was a cosy place to enjoy an early morning coffee. Sonya was lovely to deal with.

Gorgeous house, beautiful location.

Gorgeous house, beautiful location.

We loved our time at The Nest with its unique thoughtful and artistic details inside and out. The house was full of charm. We enjoyed the outdoor deck, large bath, close proximity to the beach. The beach was stunning with the hugest tidal differences I’ve ever seen. The low tides did make it a little difficult for the boat though- my hubby needed to head up to Burrum for the boat ramp as Toogoom’s was too shallow; wasn’t a big deal as Burrum’s not far. Bedding and bath towels (along with bath mat, 2 hand towels and tea towel) were all provided. There were no beach towels. The neighbours we met were very friendly. We loved our 3 night stay.

Restful location

Restful location

Wow, what a find! Fantastic house, quiet street (we could only hear the birds singing), and a stunning location! The nest is wonderful. The house was so inviting and relaxing, and was a joy to stay in. The kitchen is extremely well set-up for self catering, and the entire place is very clean and tidy. The gardens are gorgeous, and I just want to move in now! Sonya, our host was brilliant. A bottle of wine was left for us to wind down with, and there is a small pantry stocked with tea, coffee and sugar (and a few other essentials). There was also a good supply of essentials like toilet paper and cleaning products! The beach is just a short walk away, accessed via a couple of beautifully andscaped pathways. We will definitely be back. Thank you Sonya, Belinda & Margaret

Lovely restful "nest"

Lovely restful "nest"

What a lovely restful holiday we have had in "The Nest" at Toogoom. Sonya was so prompt in her communication with us and checking in was super easy. The house has been beautifully renovated and has everything you need for cooking and relaxing. With easy access to the beach, we went on several lovely walks as well as cycled around the quiet town and lake. Toogoom is such a quiet relaxing town but Hervey Bay is super close for the nights that we wanted to eat out or have a little more entertainment - only a 20 minute drive away. Would recommend this as a holiday for anyone wanting peace and quiet.
