Ruby Vale was all my dreams come true. Michael and Jane were wonderful host. Been wanting to get to Central Queensland for years. Weather was in the high twenties. Went on a mining tour and our meals were at the Ruby Vale Pub.

In a quiet location with local wildlife in the grounds, the kids loved feeding the wallabies while we amazed at the number of stars we could see at night. Easy walk up the road to the pub for dinner or local shops.

Nice experience

We stayed 3 nights. The owners were away when we arrived, but Jenny was there and made sure we were well looked after. Our room was nice and clean, as was the pool and surrounds. The area is very quiet and sitting outside late afternoon with a cold beer and having the wallaby's and lorikeet's coming sitting next to you is a nice experience.
