We are proud to be a budget accommodation. It’s not easy to be rated high as every once a year or so we have someone expecting the standards of $180/night accommodation’s to $70/night accommodation(us) and give us a zero star.

However despite those random sad people, we are now rated Super Host. 99% of guest are happy, we are not trying to satisfy the last 1%.

Someone said today was World Tree-kangaroo Day..is that true?

We currently have as many as 3 Tree-kangaroos in the small area. We believe this one used to lives in the neighbour's side but it moved over to our side for the last two weeks and it usually looking down & supervise the carpark.

Beside the Carpark Supervisor, we still have our semi-resident Mom and her son down the lawn, it usually seen above the pump-shed.

We have no pet policy due to this situation - don't want to stress them.

今日は「世界キノボリカンガルーの日」と聞きましたが本当ですか?

ジョンストンベンドには現在3匹のキノボリカンガルーが滞在しています。写真の個体はもともとお隣さん側によくいた個体ですが、この2週間ほこちらに滞在しており、連日駐車場を見下ろす位置にいます。この駐車場担当カンガルーの他にも、長年いる母と息子のキノボリカンガルーも健在で通常ポンプ小屋を見下ろす位置にいます。

We had installed 13.2kw solar system up on our roof. It is a big one, more than enough to run everything during daylight hours. We do a lot of washing & drying, this would help us.

ジョンストンベンドキャビンは先日、13.2kwの超大型ソーラーパネルを設置しました。日本では個人では所有が認められていないサイズで(法人、学校、病院など)日中の全電力を十分にカバーします。

Despite the proper storm season, Johnstone Bend Cabin still strong holds two local top stars - Platypus and Lumholtz Tree-kangaroo. Tree-kangaroo is mom and her daughter, they use two separate areas for daytime roost and nighttime feeding.

Recent years we have sad news for Platypus and Lumholtz Tree-kangaroo, the closure of Nerada Tea Plantation and the closure (almost) of Peterson Creek Walk. I don't know any reliable public accessible sites at this moment.

"Do you still have Tree Kangaroo as the Tea Plantation(known site) had been permanently close down"

Yes we do, Tree Kangaroos have never left Johnstone Bend Cabin . The mom and her joey had spotted at the back of the house. The joey came in and out form the pouch.

We got medium level food license last year and we had finally started serving cooked breakfast. We will expand it to sweets and evening meals soon. Booking required.

フードライセンスを昨年取得し、今月からまず朝食のご提供を始めます(オプション、要予約)。デザートや夕食にも徐々に拡大していきます。

We just got a cancelation of 6days - someone was made redundant at work after 15 years😧. This is rare opportunity to book as we are generally booked out all year round these days. The availability is Friday the 14th to 20th(out).

Yes we still have Tree Kangaroo (neighbour spotted one at our boundary yesterday), 164 species of birds, beautiful early morning fog.

Yesterday I flushed something small at my car park, I thought it’s Red Boobook, but when I shined a light on it it was actually Tawny Frogmouth! They are not common around Malanda forest at all, actually it’s the first record of my place (164th). Welcome to wrong habitat.
