Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Beautiful location and fabulous service. We hired a fishing dory for 4 hours which was plenty of time to drop anchor in beautiful Jerusalem bay and then a beach safari before heading back the the the kiosk.

Easy, fun, straightforward, even for a relative boating novice. Booking process and staff were great. Wet the line, circumnavigated the Northern Cowan Creek area. Didn't catch any fish, but didn't seem to matter that much.

We spent a glorious, beautiful half-day at Cottage Point, last weekend. Tranquille, nestled within the national park, peaceful, uncrowded. We were very glad for our early start. We hired a small explorer boat from the Kiosk, my partner and I and, with our little dog,...we set off exploring the surrounding beautiful inlets. The waters were calm, with hardly anyone else around (yeah!), amazing sandstone shores reflected in the aquamarine waters. We saw a sea eagle close up, an egret, cormorants and observed the mesmerising (and fast) motion of jellyfish up close. We could have easily spent more than 2 hours exploring. Afterwards, a walk up the hill to stretch our legs and then back down to the Kiosk for lunch. The fish curry is sooo delicious. It was a great way to celebrate a special birthday. Oh, and the staff were warm, welcoming and friendly. We will definitely be back.More

Friendly, wholesome gem within the national park with great coffee and menu choices. The signature dish fish curry - Barramundi poached in coconut milk and curry served with jasmine rice and yoghurt was off the scale delicious and perfect for a winter's day lunch. The...Kiosk now closed for winter - well worth a visit when it reopens.More

What an amazing lunch we had at Cottage Point Kiosk. Beautiful fresh fish and chips and a crisp Italian Pinot Grigio. The staff are friendly and efficient, and the location is 5 STAR ⭐️. I wish we had something like this in Moreton Bay. It...is like we pulled up in the Greek Islands at a Taverna that nobody knows about. (It was lovely to meet the owner Trent as well).More

This spot is ideal for lunch or tea. Having a view of boats bobbing on the water is special and gives one a sense of being closer to nature. There's something very tranquil to this spot. We arrived early hoping to beat the crowds as...the parking situation is diabolical as anyone who has been there will know! Unfortunately, we still had to park a long, long way from the kiosk. That aside, we had reserved a table on the balcony as there was a chance of rain. Menus must be picked up and food and drinks ordered and paid for at the counter. We settled for the "famous" fish curry and a portion of the corn fritters plus drinks. The fish curry consisted of a generous piece of barramundi atop a small tower of rice surrounded by the coconut milk/cream sauce on a banana leaf. It was absolutely delicious and definitely deserves every accolade. although there were chilie pieces, it was not hot but just a tad spicy. The 2 corn fritters were separated with a smear of avocado (a couple of slices of fresh would have been an improvement). a big piece of bacon and a tomato and red onion salsa plus some spinach leaves completed the dish. It was nice enough but not special. Be aware that Sundays and public holidays have a 10% surcharge.More

Cottage Point Kiosk is well placed half way up the Cowan Creek to make exploring this beautiful waterway easy. The little fishing dory we hired was new, clean and spacious for the 4 of us and very easy to manage. Besides collecting your boat here,...I'd highly recommend their restaurant too, we started with fabulous bacon and egg rolls and ended our day of adventure with a glass of bubbles and a beer. We know this waterway quite well but I would recommend doing some prior research of the beaches or bringing a map to make the most of your day.More

We have returned again to this venue because it offers 'boaties' a wonderful place to enjoy great food and wine while overlooking the marina and stunning scenery beyond. The Chilli Mussels with a Sourdough loaf is a fabulous meal and if you accompany it with...the special individually imported French Pinot Gris it lifts the experience to an outstanding level. There is a public mooring for larger boats just off the wharf and room for tenders and small craft to tie up. We will be back again next time we are on the Hawkesbury!More
