Please note that the shower features a privacy screen offering complete privacy from passers by, kayaks and other boats; however, there is partial (blurry) visibility into the shower from the deck of The Floathouse at certain times of day (higher visibility during sunrise).
Our deck is the perfect mix of function and relaxation, allowing guests to make the most of the expansive river views.

Other things to note Please note that The Floathouse is not suitable for children due to being right on the river. The Floathouse is suitable for a maximum of two guests. There is a security camera located at the front of The Floathouse. Unfortunately, if any additional guests or children are present, the booking will be cancelled with no refund provided.
WIFI is also available during your stay, including a Smart TV where you may use your device to stream Netflix or other streaming platforms.
We stock basic pantry items including teas, coffee, salt and pepper, olive oil and milk. There are additional supplies available within the marina kiosk. You will find it hard to leave once you arrive so we recommend stocking up on supplies in Murray Bridge (15 minutes away) before you arrive.
