"This was a cheap room, very bare bones and basic but exactly what we needed for one night close to all the cool attractions in the area. It was just my 13-year-old son and I. The receptionist was extremely nice and explained everything really well. She even turned the heat on for us and explain the space heater which we definitely needed as it was pretty chilly that night.I was a little bummed out that the beds were slightly squeaky, the doors to the rooms were really loud, and the walls seem to be very thin. But even with all that I still slept well. Overall happy about it, but perhaps I would try the more chalet style rooms next time and find an even better experience."

"Really nice clean place with modern appliances and furniture. Had everything we needed as a family of four during our one week stay. Close to the Kinloch General store and local walking tracks. Laundry facilities were excellent, although the dryer needed a couple of runs at a load to get everything properly dry. The shower was awesome; best water pressure I've ever experienced and fitted with a shower dome so it "saunas" nicely. Thanks for hosting us!"

10/10 Excellent
"Had a great time at the BnB We arrived late so it was dark its only 20 minutes from town but at night it feels longer would recommend brining food with or grab lunch or dinner while you are out.The property is up a private driveway with a gate so was nice and safe. Check in was easy and the property was clean and comfortable minus a bit of hair in the bathroom.The sofa bed was nice and comfortable and the place is modern and well thought out i liked the ir paintings that heated the property kept it nice and warm even though it was quite cold at night. The gift basket was a nice touch and we made good use of it. Not to mention Little Hunter made sure to check out Car for any non compliant items."
