“Good but too expensive for what it was”
+The view was very good.
−It was too expensive for what is was and having to pay more for the sauna use was too much.

“Just as advertised. Great views. Scary driveway.”
+The house is just as advertised. Spectacular views from the deck (sadly the wind break screen blocked the view from the lounge). Well stocked kitchen. Good supply of tea and coffee to start (note it’s an Aldi machine and takes its own pods - there was a plunger available). Great supply of firewood. Very comfortable furniture and beds. Lots of heating options.
−A few things were not great - The driveway is just plain scary - very narrow and steep. If you are not a confident driver do not book here. There is a bit of important info buried in the 9 page booklet we were sent - no wifi, shampoo or conditioner (unusual). Unfortunately we did not receive the door code for the second bedroom and got locked out in the morning. But the host Karen replied quickly to my txts.

+Incredible views. Little bit hairy of a drive up the driveway in wet weather.
−One of the bedroom doors locked on an electronic locking system. Wasn't using the room, but it was a bit odd that it couldn't be accessed. The front gate is pretty heavy, was not the easiest to lift and open/ close.

“If they took away the plastic around the balcony rails you would see the lovely view. Nice getaway but only to hang out”
+The bedrooms were at each end of the house so good for privacy. Well stocked kitchen. Plenty of wood for the fire.
−The driveway. (Yes I was warned) The plastic around the balcony rails blocks the view while sitting down.

“Lofty and lovely”
+Location location location. Views of everything. Quiet, lovely landscape.
−Tricky driveway - but you eventually got used to it . Sorry , but a washing machine would be nice as we stayed 6 nights. I understand why - maybe limited access to a machine would be good.

“Great views but needs some attention”
+The view and verandah were amazing Well equipped kitchen Wood fire was lovely
−There's a shower over bath tub with a large picture window in the Southern bedroom ensuite with no privacy screen. You literally stand at the window and shower!! Not at all a comfortable situation when you know there's a caretaker on site as well... Lots of dust under both beds & house smelt a bit musty when we first entered The driveway definitely needs a 4WD with good ground clearance to climb up to the house

“Absolutely wonderful!”
+Beautiful location with stunning views and lovely relaxed bush surrounds. Adventurous driveway and quirky garden ornaments and well kept native gardens. Comfortable house and good layout. Feel far away from others yet so close to town.
−Being up high the sound of traffic (trucks) below on New England Hwy travels up and is ever present during the day. This blocks out some of the bird song and tranquility of the environment. Also, couldn't find anywhere to hang a tea towel.

“Good”
+Eagle's Nest is in a great position overlooking Stanthorpe. Air-conditioning was very necessary during the cold conditions for our stay. The fireplace with readily available timber was great. Kitchen had all the equipment we needed (although a new non-stick frying pan wouldn't go astray). Coffee pods, tea and sugar were a lovely bonus.
