很棒的體驗

我們二大二小入住獨棟家庭小木屋，坐落農場內的環境，除了可以看到牛、豬、羊、馬、雞等家畜、家禽以外，晚上會有野兔出沒，通往農場的道路上還遇到袋鼠從你眼前跳過，非常適合親子旅遊，農場內的人態度很友善，唯一要注意的是在下午五、六點前要抵達，否則晚上農場很暗，不易找到小木屋位置，也找不到人，但只要知道小木屋代號（訂房時就已顯現）直接前往也可以，房間鑰匙直接就放在小木屋內。

Lovely farmstay, great for families

We had a lovely weekend at freshwater creek cottages. Our children loved feeding the animals and exploring the farm on bikes. It's close to Torquay and an easy drive from Melbourne. Our 7 year old son keeps asking when are we going back!

Fantastic Farm Stay.

"Can we come here again next holidays Mum?" We hadn't even left before I was being asked that! Our stay at Freshwater Creek Cottages was everything I had hoped for in a farm stay holiday. The children had a ball feeding the animals and helping the farmer. When they weren't doing that, they were tearing around on bikes, spotting wild life and making new friends. They were outside from the moment they woke up until darkness fell. Despite the cold nights we were always snug in our cottage, which contained everything you could possibly want for a comfortable holiday. The kitchen was very well equipped and the laundry facilities were a fantastic bonus. The friendly, relaxed atmosphere created by the hosts was wonderful and they are to be congratulated on the fantastic place they have created. I would definitely recommend Freshwater Creek Cottages and I know my children would return there in a heartbeat.
