Couldn’t be happier with my experience renting this house. Nice and quiet location and only a walking distance away from everything. House was spotless and really welcoming.
Thank you very much for letting us stay!

This property was perfect for what we needed. There was the owners laundry still being hung up, some dishes were dirty and there was heaps of dog poo on the back yard. Overall cleanliness wasn’t that great, and pictures haven’t been updated as the property is actually upgraded and rooms look much different. Apart from that it was a lovely place to stay and me and my friends enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider coming back.

Bach was very spacious and cosy with lots of bedding options including a cot for our grandchild. Toys and games kept everyone well entertained. Nice quiet spot.

A great spot, walking distance to the estuary. Excellent size for two families to spread out. The hosts were flexible when our booking changed and responded promptly to all messages. We would love to return.

We really loved the feel of the bach, it felt like a home away from home. Really comfortable, large and had everything we could want.

We loved the easy stroll to the estuary, which is a must if you have a dog and an infant. Plenty of board games and dvds kinda make up for the lack of wifi when the weather is not good, and plenty of outdoor gear too!

2.0 / 5.0
The house wasn’t very clean, ants witch we had to spray in bath room, cockroaches, and fleas witch us 5 minutes after arrival. Plates and cutlery and frying pan and to be washed before use. Dogs have clearly been in the house as hair was found. The bikes that where there for our use all had flat Tyers the kayak had two oars witch one was broken. The back bed room downstairs was musty dew to lack of window opening. Over all we felt WE left the house cleaner that it was at our arrival.

1.5 / 5.0
We had a bit of a problem with accessibility which probably wouldn't worry younger people but had everything we needed once inside. Owners very easy to deal with.
