This place is amazing. Driving in you feel instantly relaxed. The house is clean, comfortable and spacious. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The view from inside the house and the back verandah is gorgeous. Plenty of boardgames and dvds for down time. Sadly we didn't catch many fish but still enjoyed our time on the water. The house is completely private and very quiet so you can completely switch off. Really well set out for dogs too. We will definitely be back!

A family get together

I have stayed at this property before, so when we were considering a family get together we decided that this property was perfect. As with our last time, it was spotless when we arrived. We had a great time around the fire pit at night, even though it was a little cold. The men even got to go fishing and crabbing although unsuccessfully. I recommend this property to any one who is looking for a quiet time with all the amenities.

Such a peaceful location!

We spent a week boating, swimming, kayaking, crabbing and fishing at Toogoom Retreat. Such a vibrant river system. Kids especially loved jetty jumping at high tide. We kept the fire stoked and ate lunch outside under the shady trees. Just bliss. Kylere the property manager was great, she ensured we were contacted and fully informed before check in with all the information when the website went down. It was lovely to meet you Kylere. The house was spotless and lovely and cool upon arrival after a long drive. Everything you need is stocked in the kitchen, there’s plenty of towels and linen. All the amenities to keep the inside house and verandah tidy are all available. Guests should come fully stocked with mossie coils, bug spray and stop itch for the bugs that come out at dawn and dusk. And if you want to spend extended time on the jetty and in the water bring a shade gazebo to tie down. This week was one of our families best holidays yet, just so restful and peaceful, we were all sad having to go back to reality. Looking forward to visiting Toogoom Retreat again.

Family Xmas Gathering

Fantastic house for our growing family to spend time together. Heaps of space to spread out. The house was clean and spacious. There was plenty of linen. The kitchen was also stocked with all the essentials you need to cook for a large crowd. We utilised the fire pit to toast marshmallow’s and a few lines were wet with fishing. Our overseas visitors loved the birdlife, the occasional goanna and the feel of the Australian bush. Our Xmas was everything we hoped for. Would highly recommend this space for any growing family.
