Stayed here for work and it was spot on. Plenty of space, comfortable setup and everything needed for a longer stay. Quiet location made it easy to relax after hours, and still convenient for getting to and from work each day. Would happily book again for future work trips.

Juanita and Lee were fabulous hosts and super responsive. They have clearly put a lot of thought into this demountable home including new appliances and air conditioning. Perfect for those who want lots of outdoor space. Ideal for caravaners like us who want somewhere to park up for a few days. 30minute drive into Darwin and similar to the beautiful Berry Springs.
Huge area to park a caravan or kick a footy
Great outdoor set up
Inside lounge area to watch T V

Poor quality mattress on main bed. Location is very good.
