Remote and quiet with a million stars to wonder at

Rubyvale is the heart of the gemfields. The town is quiet but there's a lovely pub that serves great food. The motel is close to the village centre. The owner was really nice and friendly and made us feel welcome. As its so remote the stars at night are awsome. Theres not much to do except chat with friends over a cold drink and enjoy the remoteness.

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.

We had a great time and than Jane and Michael for their hospitality. The atmosphere of a quiet bush setting was much to our taste and our hosts were great sources of information regarding the gem fields. We would definitely recommend Rubyvale Motel

Great owners and cool pool at Rubyvale.

Great accommodation, lovely and clean in as new condition. It was private and peaceful with a neat outlook. We could not fault the service which was friendly and helpful. There was an awesome pool which we utilised at every opportunity to cool down and relax as the weather at Rubyvale was pretty warm.
