About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Camp Acacia - Family retreat
Camp Acacia is a unique space to reset, reflect and connect. A warm, light filled home on a secluded cul-de-sac, designed with a `slow` pace in mind. Local wildflowers collected on adventures decorate the house along with vintage pieces and whimsical collections, creating a luxe vintage-camping vibe full of memories from childhood summers. Well stocked with everything you need & a restaurant/bar, L’arté Cafe & Gallery, shops, playground & lake all a short walking distance away.
Our hope is that you enjoy every part of your stay - from sipping on local coffee in the morning, listening to the native wildlife in the trees surrounding our property and in the hills behind, long lunches with good friends and late nights gathered around the outdoor fire pit toasting marshmallows.
This spacious 2 storey home has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Each room is individually styled with quality linen and feather pillows.

A great stay was held by all. However a few maintenance things that require attenton:The upstairs shower head pipe is loose in the all and could cause leaking issues.Oven was going intermittently. The electrician with us suggested this could be a main control board issue.The rangehood was not ducted outside and the light dosent work.There were no pillow protectors.A teapot would be a welcomed kitchen addition.
