While border shutdowns crippled Queensland’s tourism industry last year, one Eungella operator says business has been booming since the second half of 2020.
Eungella Chalet manager Tess Ford said while the state lockdown in May was tough, things had been looking up for the mist-shrouded tourism hot spot ever since.
“A lot of people during that time were locked down,” Ms Ford said.
“But as Queensland started to open up again, the first weekend that we could actually let people eat in here, we did 300 meals.
“We were having to ask people to leave so we could fill the table again.
