"Advertised as no frills but although a bit rustic it had all the usual amenities. The congenial owner greeted us and admitted that he had set up our room as the usual staff member had left. Unfortunately he forgot the bath towels but did bring them after an early mornng phone call."

10/10 Excellent
"What a view. Amazing. The room was a good size and clean. Bbq was not working but a call had them working the next day. Pool is nice but smaller than the photos show. Would stay again. It was a shock to drive up a dirt road and see water tank and radio towers and we thought the GPS was playing up. But then we turned into the property."
