Relaxing
Beautiful property & house - everything provided. Kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms lovely and clean however all entrance doors - sliders were in need of a clean + spider webs. Overall a lovely property, well maintained and catered, very well presented and wonderfully peaceful.

Peaceful retreat
Stayed here with 4 adult children. The house was very clean and tidy with large rooms. Location is in a very quiet area with the lake in your backyard. We went 4WD, boating, bushwalking, 90 mile beach and had a lovely relaxing time.

Retreat from city life
This property is a lovely retreat from city life. The house is spacious and rooms as per listing. Be aware there is no air conditioning though and no fans in bedrooms so very hot on hot summer days. Windows allowed for a breeze but that wasn’t much help with extreme heat. The other point to note is the size of the fridge. For a house that sleeps 9, the fridge is very small. We had to go and buy an Eski to keep drinks in as the fridge had no space. The little touches, such as the bread, butter and jam, tea bags and milk were lovely. Beds were uncomfortable and noisy. The pool table a great addition and provided lots of fun. The overall cleanliness not great. The floors were very dirty and there was no mop and bucket so we couldn’t clean them. We had to do some washing of the towels because the floors were so dirty but there is only a very little washing line which made it tricky. The top of the fridge had a bug zapper and was covered in dead bugs.
The location and surrounds of the house were beautiful though, the bird life and Australian Flora made it very relaxing. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here but feel there are a few details that could be addressed to make it quite a special stay away.
