About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Hidden House - A quiet studio space set amongst 73 acres of native forest.

Relax in our spacious studio space. Lay and watch the gentle sway of the tree tops from a hammock. Go exploring on our expansive property and check out our BIG trees that survived the logging era. Cook up a feed on the webber and enjoy a few drinks on the covered deck area. If the skies are clear stay up and watch the star show (which can be spectacular!!!).

The main studio is located on the ground floor of our house. This sleeps four people. One queen and two singles. There's also a sleepout with a queen bed which you are welcome to use.
The apartment features a kitchenette and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and an electric kettle.

Island Adventure...

Enjoyable stay with comfortable bed, plenty of towels available and close to Ferry landing.Major issue for us was the extremely rough track which wasn't a pleasant experience each time we went out and came back. We would consider it more than a "bumpy driveway". Smart TV did not work after day 2 unless it was operator error. Otherwise everything was available that enables us to have an enjoyable stay.
