its an easy drive really hunnybunny, straight all the way except for the turn off to the places. we did it in a day and it was very long drive (think about 8/9 hours) but it is manageable with regular breaks.

Along the way, more south actually and closer to Hervey Bay, there are two villages right next to one another called Anges Water and 1770. They're well worth a visit and are a great place for an overnight stay.
