Cool place to unwind

This little cottage is very clean, have all the cooking utensils, extra towels, blankets. Also pet friendly. Nice back grass area to play with our pup. No fence to cover the property. But it was not a problem as no other animals around not much traffic on the roads as well. Very nice surroundings, beautiful mountain 360 views on top of the Mount Benambra summit. There's much to do even if you are not into fishing.

As a fisherman the Lodge was perfect for our needs. Had every appliance you would find in a normal family home. No dish washer but I bought my own. I will stay again and reccommend it to all my fishing Buddies.
