All crockery, cutlery, toaster, kettle, pots and pans and coffee machine are provided.

There is a built-in washing machine and a tumble dryer available to the side of the kitchen in the scullery area and a washing line around the side of the house.

Free Telstra ADSL WiFi is available and a television with DTV, Netflix and Stan is in the lounge area. There is a second TV in the master bedroom with DTV.

A wood burning stove in the living area provides more than enough heat for the house and wood and kindling are provided. If you run out, please ask and we will be happy to top you up.

The back wall of the living area is made up of a full width window and sliding door that opens up on to the large deck offering panoramic views of the lake and surrounding valley and trees. A large ceiling fan ensures you remain cool no matter what the weather. The deck leads off to the side to the small garden area. Each bedroom has sliding door access to the deck.

Both bedrooms overlook the lake, the rain forest and macadamia trees and have ceiling fans and their own reverse cycle air conditioning unit. Each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with a large rain shower. Towels and shower amenities are provided. Bedroom 1 has a Queen bed. Bedroom 2 has 1 x double and 1 x single.

An extra single bed with all bedding is available for use in bedroom 2. There is an extra charge of $30.00 if this is required.

A gas BBQ is available for use on the deck.

Guests have their own private access to the house down through the long drive past the main house. The driveway has lights for nighttime access. There is a private car port (for one to two vehicles parked one behind the other) to the front of the house.

Cottage was just magic. Driveway a challenge for older people when taxis can not pick up closer to you. Too steep for elderly folks. But loved loved the cottage & location. Really enjoyed our short stay. 5 star + Thanks again

Lovely Property and awesome hospitality
Modern and very clean guesthouse. Beds were snuggly and I imagine would be delicious in winter. The breakfast provided was superb. Check in super easy and directions accurate. Spacious with a great deck to listen to the birds. In fact, I have already rebooked to take other guests next year. Looking forward to it.

Girls trip
Flew interstate for a friends wedding, rented ‘On Burgum Pond’ Guesthouse for 3 nights with some friends. Very comfortable stay for 3 adults. With a large kitchen/living area, 2 separate walk in robes and 2 ensuites, it is perfect for getting ready for a wedding or event. Just 5-10mins drive to the supermarket and local cafe strip. Perfect location for a tranquil getaway. The property was clean and well maintained. No issues had during our stay. The owners were incredibly kind, providing a breakfast hamper with freshly baked bread, eggs, fruit and spreads which lasted our entire trip. Lovely view of the pond off the back deck. Would recommend if staying in Maleny or visiting Sunshine Coast.
