Oaks Middlemount Suites  

In the heart of Central Queensland’s mining belt, Oaks Middlemount sits in Middlemount — about a three-hour drive west of Rockhampton and Mackay and roughly an hour from Emerald. It’s centrally positioned next to the town’s sports and leisure centre, opposite the local shopping centre and a short drive from Bundoora Dam and Middlemount Golf Club.

This 4.5-star aparthotel offers spacious one- and two-bedroom, fully air-conditioned, self-contained apartments. Kitchens come with full-sized refrigerators/freezers and stovetops; rooms also include microwaves, washers/dryers and in-room phones — practical comforts for both short stays and longer work trips. Family-friendly and built for corporate and leisure visitors alike.

Take a morning or after-work dip in the outdoor swimming pool, fire up the on-site BBQ area, and enjoy undercover car parking. Tour and ticket assistance is offered, and nearby Bundoora Dam delivers fishing, boating and water-skiing while the local golf course often shares the greens with kangaroos and kookaburras.

Wireless internet is available for a surcharge and the front desk is staffed during limited hours. Free self-parking and practical in-room conveniences make longer stays easier for working guests.
