Great stay and nice spot by the water. Only problem we had was we needed a fire guard as we had little kids with us apart from that was a great stay. We used the private jetty to launch our jet ski. Was amazing!
We stayed here for a family trip. We had a wonderful time. Couldn’t have asked for a better spot. Plenty of room in the house. Loved it. Will definitely stay again.
Water pressure wasn’t good. Barbecue could have been cleaner and not all the elements worked. Really lovely setting and so relaxing. Really enjoyed our stay so serene
The bach is basic, but comfortable. This place is really all about location, great big grassy area where the kids could play, outdoor bean bags were well used. It’s right on the road, but not as noisy as expected and is well fenced meaning we didn’t need to worry about the kids. Friendly neighbours and a very responsive property manager. We really enjoyed our stay.
Good location for a weekend of family trout fishing. If you have an average sized boat the driveway is quite tight to navigate and only just enough room for vehicle and trailer to still shut the gate. Once in feels very private :)
