    10/10 stay, actually a nice clean place
    When we arrived we didn’t realise how big the block was, perfect for a small boat and suv/4wd to drive in and turn around, was happy with it straight away, after 3 days I’ve gotta say I’ll be coming back and I’ll be recommending plough cottage to friends and family, great neighbours and atmosphere, so close to the water and boat ramp. Bruce is a great bloke and made the check in easy as. Everything you need there apart from sheets for the beds really.

    Great place to stay at a reasonable price!
    The owner of the property Bruce is a good man. We stayed there for two nights in winter and the heater kept us warm. A great place for family to stay at a reasonable price. Overall my family had nice experience. If your mob provider is not Telstra, just a sim card for short term so that you have access to mob network to be able to use GPS to get around in that rural area.
