"The house is in a beautiful quiet spot close to the river. There are two outdoor sitting areas, so you’re always sheltered from the wind. The home is cosy and has everything you need plus some thoughtful extras. The communication and access was easy and straight forward. We had a wonderful stay! "

"A great house with a great sea view "

"We had a wonderful stay at Lyndoch Motel, but what truly stood out was their exceptional kindness and service. We are a family traveling from Singapore, and unfortunately, we left a mobile phone behind in our room after checking out. The team was incredibly helpful — they went the extra mile to search for it, kept us informed, and promptly let us know once it was found. What touched us the most was that they arranged to send the phone all the way to Melbourne, our final stop — and did not charge us a single cent for it. This level of honesty, generosity, and genuine care is truly rare. We are deeply grateful for their help, and they turned a stressful situation into a very heartwarming experience."

"Ideal clean, comfortable accommodation for two couples with a very spacious living area and bedrooms at either end.Great location, easy walk to the beach and very central for leisurely visits to most of the island's attractions during our (two couples) four night stay. Hosts Ian and Ann provided an excellent guide/instruction pack for all the modcons and were great communicators. "

"Our stay was excellent with the accommodation and facilities being perfect for our sizable group (16). Highly recommended! Will, the host, was very helpful and communication was great. Perfect location for access to the Northern beaches of KI. 5 stars!"

"Location in the bush was not what we expected—thought we would have been closer to the sea-"

"Magnificent view, room had everything I required and the bath on the front deck was spot on. "

"Very welcoming host great instructions and ammenities. Humble family beach shack with the most breathtaking views we have ever seen. "

"We really enjoyed staying here. The house was comfortable, clean and spacious. It is set up well for families and we had the best summer holiday. The house is close to the beach and near to other outdoor activities & the Flinders Chase national park. There was also beautiful wildlife on our doorstep every night. With three energetic kids it was a great place to base to ourselves for long walks and body boarding at the beach, the Harriet river where we went kayaking and near the Sahara sand dunes for sand boarding and also some quad biking which was excellent if that’s your thing. We also did a day trip to explore Western River Cove, Stokes Bay & Emu bay it was a long day of driving but worth it to see all the beautiful beaches and some good lunch spots too (The Rock Pool Cafe. Beach Day Emu Bay and So Sando in Kingscote) Based on our experience: - Stock up on groceries, I recommend bringing breakfast & lunch options and then heading to the Vivonne bay general store (closes a 6pm in summer) or the Parndana pub for dinner open till 8pm. - Book activities ahead of time if you don’t have much flexibly in your schedule - It’s pretty hard to avoid the mozzies so put a bit of insect repellent on before bed We look forward to coming back again next summer"
