I really enjoyed my stay at Atherton Blue Gum. It was quiet, private, peaceful and had everything I needed for a pleasant stay. The staff were fantastic. If I ever find my way back to this part of the world, I will not hesitate to stay at the Atherton Blue Gum again. Recommended.

This was a perfect spot for our adventures across Queensland and jumping off point for exploring the Atherton Tablelands. There was a communal porch that was perfect for relaxing after a long day of hiking and chatting with fellow travellers. Also loved seeing all of the critters at night, as the place is located right next to a greenway where pademelon and bush thick-knee wander!

Room was clean and quiet except for foot traffic noise from floor above in the morning. Quite central to town if driving. Unable to use the room tv as power cord not long enough to reach a power point and no extension cord found. Beds comfortable.

The room was clean and the host was very friendly. My only complaint is that the smoking area was a great distance from the room. I understand that smoking is a disgusting habit but both myself and my carer are smokers and due to my disability it was difficult for me to walk down the driveway to the pool area
