This is a fantastic property, secluded, with all the luxuries that you have at home. The property views are beautiful set amongst the rolling hills adjacent to the Shoalhaven River. Yet 15 minutes from Nowra. The owners were excellent to deal with so nice and accommodating, they took our teens in with the goats, chickens and pig, which was a highlight. We will be back.

We had a lovely family weekend away at Saltwater Creek.The accomodation was beautifully styled and very clean.The hosts were lovely and accomodating, however we were unaware they live right next door.A welcoming escape close enough to town if you run out of essentials.
