These cabins are super cute and peaceful. The decor is so simple and beautiful, really adds a nice touch. Loved that the kitchen had plates and utensils. The outdoor bbq was super handy also. My husband and I stayed for 2 nights and loved our stay. Fishing at Mattys Flat Jetty was so nice! I would only stay here if I visit South West Rocks again!

Lovely quiet environment, spacing between units was excellent with a lovely river frontage. Pool was a delight on the day that we scored sunshine. The kitchen was very well equipped. We were disappointed with the large divan/lounge seating, it was very uncomfortable, and could do with some ‘proper’ firm cushioning. The one arm chair was brilliant but the overhanging standard lamp a bit invasive. We aim to be back sometime in the future!
