Millpond is a perfectly appointed holiday home. It was an absolute delight to stay here and it will be the first place I look on my next trip to KI. All the little details are there - platters, spices, tools for seafood, puzzles/books for rainy days. The front verandah was a lovely place to relax, watch the dolphins, birds and see the wallabies :)

Fabulous property with panoramic views of Backstairs Passage across Hog Bay to Cape Jervis. Within easy walking distance to supermarket, hotel and ferry terminal. This home has all the amenities we have in our own home. Eddie is very responsive to any questions. We had another great day at the Kangaroo Island races. Thanks Eddie and Rhonda.

This place was so perfect for our holiday on Kangaroo Island.
Easy check-in process once getting off the boat. The ocean views are very relaxing to wake up to and finish the day off after a day out seeing the beautiful spots on the island.
Being so close to the beach and able to easily walk to is a big bonus. Communication is very responsive and accomodating. Highly recommend this place and we will be back for sure. Thank you to the hosts Eddie and Rhonda.

We will be back again :).

Loved this holiday experience with longtime girlfriends. The house was excellent. Loved the 2 full bathrooms as we had a girlfriend with a moon boot on and legally blind so was very easy for her to find her way around with easy access.

Everything you could ever need
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Millpond, a beautiful house in a wonderful place with amazing views. The kitchen was decked out with everything you could ever want and lighting the fire on a cold winter’s day and snuggling up on the couch to watch DVDs (a very big collection!) was a real treat. Would definitely stay here again

A little slice of paradise
Thank you Eddie & Rhonda for allowing us to stay in your beautiful holiday home. Located with perfect views out to sea and back to the mainland. We sat out on the deck watching a seal feeding on a school of fish 10M offshore, and a dolphin nearby as well... what a treat! Those sunrises were just amazing!! The whole home has great facilities, and we loved the wine glasses! Beds were very comfortable, the towels were very high quality and that couch was so inviting. Our stay at Millpond was all that we hoped for and more. A short walk into shops, and to KI Sculpture Trail was fantastic! A+++++

Beautiful location! The house was so well stocked and comfortable. Everything you need to have a great stay. Absolutely nothing to report on that was an issue as everything was pretty much spot on! The fire place was even set up and ready to go for us which we thought was great especially during Winter.
