Queenslands best kept secret.

This is Qlds best kept secret. We had a short but amazing holiday with a small group - glamping at Wilson. Managers Beth and Ben made it very special as did the chef Nick. However the highlight there is to be immersed in nature. A spectacular reef ,gigantic turtles laying eggs - sometimes right on our doorstep! And the birds may be prolific but you are staying in their habitat and you come to love them!!
