Amity point is nice , there is a ripper house near the general store with a balcony over the water . Usually easy to book this time of year . If you type in accomodation North Stradbroke island, you will find heaps . Ask if the place has been sprayed for spiders lol . We we there is january and had a ball . make sure you have plenty of provosions , there very little on the island . Most general stores close at six pm.
Make sure you take meat fruit and veg with you .

Thanks Eric.
Having never been there we are trying to find which part of the Island is the better Place to stay.

Three
places to go.
Point Lookout surf and smart set, Flinders Beach small, secluded and surf but no
shop or
services and Amity, calm water, good fishing shops,
services and casual club. Board rider, surfer -
Point Lookout swimming and fishing the other two. Plenty of accom in all areas at that time apart from Pub Hols. Get a beach permit and throw the rods on board.
Matty Hadyn has a great house at Amity that he rents. Friends of mine had a ball there.

Dave,
If its a house you want an you dont know of one in particular, safe bet would be one of the many at
Point Lookout. Some are outrageously priced, but you will find many to be very reasonable. Last house I stayed in on Straddie was a house called 'Joleynca'. It sleeps plenty and has a great deck with awesome
views out over Flinders Beach, over to
Moreton Island and then some. Was not at all expensive and had just about everything you would want. Try do a search for Ray White Straddie and
check their listings.
Easter weekend is probably booked solid. The Island is better without the masses anyway. And lastly, you must go and have a few cold ones at the Straddie Pub and enjoy that majical view.
Half your luck.
