About this house rental
Our beautiful house is the perfect base for your holiday on Fraser Island. It is situated in Second Valley - a quiet residential area, only a short walk south of Eurong with its shop, bakery, restaurant and bars. The Ocean Beach is a 5 minute walk.
We have 3 bedrooms:
1 with king-size double bed and ensuite WC.
1 with queen-size double bed.
1 with 3 single beds (bunk plus single).
There is a large open-plan living and dining space and a fully equipped kitchen with gas hob/oven and large fridge/freezer. We have a TV with local satellite channels.
The 2 upstairs decks give a choice of views and opportunities to catch the sea breeze in the heat of the day. Under the house is a gas BBQ and a further seating area.
The garden is mainly lawn and is safe for children as we are situated within the Eurong enclosure.
There is a laundry room with a washing machine for guests’ use. Linen is available for hire if required.
What to see and do:
We spend a lot of time chilling on our deck watching and listening to the abundant bird life in the garden, or take a stroll down to the beach to walk or fish. There may be Sea Eagles or Brahmins Kites in the air and dolphins or whales in the sea.
The house is ideally located as a base to explore most of the island’s popular visitor spots such as the southern lakes, Lake McKenzie and Central Station. Straight up the beach you will find Lake Wabby, Eli Creek, the Maheno wreck, The Pinnacles, Indian Head and the Champagne Pools at Middle Rocks.
We have a minimum booking of 3 nights.
The maximum number of guests Hornblowers can accommodate is 7, including children.
Like most privately owned property on Fraser Island we have to generate our own electricity from a solar system with generator back-up. Most electrical items and chargers work fine but there are some electrical appliances which cannot be used such as hair-dryers, portable refrigerators and coffee machines. Please contact us if you have specific requests.

Week family vacation of Fraser. Our annual family trip but this year we thought we’d stay in a house rather than camp.
Hornblowers was beautiful, great location, clean, tidy and had everything we needed and was located close to all our favourite day spots.

Lovely accommodation and happy with our experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Owner was friendly and accommodating. The location was also great with easy access to everything. We highly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a wonderful stay!

The house is excellent and accommodation, too. Only what is missing is aircon for full enjoyment as we cannot rely on breeze on hot humid quite day.
Bedrooms are spacious and clean. Happy to recommend this to anyone with adventurous soul. The accommodation has a great position on the island. Hot water system needs attention as we had very little hot water flow in the shower. Overall, this accommodation deserves 4 stars at least.

Hornblowers’ house provides a great “home away from home” holiday destination.
Steve & Lisa the on site managers were there for our every need. Very gracious, efficient and extremely polite professional team.
Thanks to them for a great 2 week holiday at Eurong.

Hornblowers has everything you need for an awesome holiday on Fraser. Great location, good amenities, friendly and helpful host.
10.0
Communication with the host was good, easy location to find and close to all the day trips we wanted to do. Hot shower, comfortable beds and well equipped kitchen. No fans in the 3rd bedroom was the only disappointment. Would book here again.

Our stay at Hornblowers was pleasant. The home is central and offers easy access to many of the main attractions. One thing to note is there is no AC which is probably not an issue most of the time, however we had five 35+ degrees and it was extremely hot in the house. The sea breeze was certainly very welcome!

Comfortable house with plenty of space, the owners treat you more like extended family than tenants. Will stay again. Thanks

Stayed at the house previous so we knew that the house had excellent amenities, very comfortable and close to the Eurong shop, the fishing was great. There were four male adults all over 70 years old, we will stay there again no doubt about it.

Used Hornblowers for a short 4 night stay recently and it served our purpose well. Great location and good clean house. Would recommend it to others.
8.0
We enjoyed our stay at Hornblowers very much. It was a convenient location for all we wanted to achieve. Lots of room, lovely new fridge, although the vege crisper was not inserted correctly and did not slide properly. Beds were deemed comfortable by the younger ones, although us old folk found the king size quite hard. Plenty of kitchen "stuff" for all your cooking needs. Overall very comfortable.
Our big problem was with Stayz. There was a major problem with trying to make the final payment and even with spending hours on the phone and sending a number of emails, they were of no help whatsoever. The replies to the emails were days late, the final one being after we'd already been at the house for two days. Having said that, Andrew, the owner was a delight to deal with and answered very promptly. We would be happy to recommend Hornblowers to other holiday makers, and indeed have already done so.

Tidy property in great location
Property was clean and tidy in good location. Easy to find when you follow directions. Spacious enough for family of 6. Had new fridge.

Great location but maintenance on property is needed badly.
We had a nice stay however the the house needs some basic maintenance. There was black mould on the ceiling of the bathroom, mould on the lounge sitting and the timber dining setting was very sticky and felt unclean. The fridge also needed to be checked to ensure it was closed properly, I think the seals were worn. There were also holes in the ceiling of the kitchen. Overall the house just felt a little tired. Great location and check-in process. I have stayed at multiple houses all over the island and this is the first one where no outside hose was available for use.

A true Fraser Island experience
Very old and basic accommodation but this is what Fraser Island delivers. Dirty floors and I don’t mean sand. Just grubby, I don’t think they have been mopped for quite a while. Great location, neighbours turned loud music down when we were inside our property. Few cockroaches but that’s to be expected in this environment. Take your own loo paper, gas lighter or matches, garbage bags as not supplied by owner. It’s more about exploring the island than accommodation

Perfect set up
The perfect location near Eurong. The beds were comfortable and the facilities were just what we needed for a small group of 5.

House was great, very peaceful, minutes from the beach, whole family thoroughly enjoyed, highly recommended

Not recommended.
Very unclean home. Fridge was smelly and not turned on. Toilet, bathroom and kitchen could not be used until they were disinfected by us. Crockery and cookware were stained. Ran out of water by 7pm, even though we were out all day. It was a bad experience. Do not stay in this property until it is cleaned up.

Fraser Island magic
Property was on a great location. Very tidy of not a bit tired but we were on the island to explore not sit around so it suited our purposes perfectly and the neighbours music was great.

Great location, huge beach house, but annoying neighbours
Fabulous location, if you want direct access to Eastern Beach, all of the main lakes, Eurong Resort, and much more. Spotlessly clean. Yes, there’s a little bit of sand, but it is a beach house. Perfect for a big family. Sleeps seven. Great shady deck for wine. Wrap around veranda, so you can escape the kids. Laundry downstairs with a huge washing machine. Easy to check in. Lisa (on site caretaker – just down the road) was great.
The only negative (a minor annoyance really) was the neighbours who felt it appropriate to play Springsteen, Chisel and U2, at full volume, on rotation, for between 5-7 hours every day. (Don’t get me wrong, I like music, just not the same tracks, over and over again, for 6 hours, on full volume). I feel sorry for the owner of this property because this is something that is very difficult to control.
Pleasingly, the neighbour’s routine appears to be to get up mid-morning. By mid-day, they plonk themselves outside on cheap plastic outdoor furniture, with rum and cokes, roll their ciggies, and by around 6pm, they go inside and pass out (presumably). So, if you spend most of the day away, you won’t notice it.
