"The house was well presented and the pantry was well stocked with the basics. Extra quilts and blankets are provided which we made use of as the nights were very cold, the AC did an ok job of keeping the place warm.Towels are provided for showers but no hand towel in case that bothers anyone.The river and beach are both beautiful and within easy walking distance.All in all the property was everything we needed for our stay on Kangaroo island."

10/10 Excellent
"We really enjoyed staying here. The house was comfortable, clean and spacious. It is set up well for families and we had the best summer holiday. The house is close to the beach and near to other outdoor activities & the Flinders Chase national park. There was also beautiful wildlife on our doorstep every night. With three energetic kids it was a great place to base to ourselves for long walks and body boarding at the beach, the Harriet river where we went kayaking and near the Sahara sand dunes for sand boarding and also some quad biking which was excellent if that’s your thing. We also did a day trip to explore Western River Cove, Stokes Bay & Emu bay it was a long day of driving but worth it to see all the beautiful beaches and some good lunch spots too (The Rock Pool Cafe. Beach Day Emu Bay and So Sando in Kingscote) Based on our experience: - Stock up on groceries, I recommend bringing breakfast & lunch options and then heading to the Vivonne bay general store (closes a 6pm in summer) or the Parndana pub for dinner open till 8pm. - Book activities ahead of time if you don’t have much flexibly in your schedule - It’s pretty hard to avoid the mozzies so put a bit of insect repellent on before bed We look forward to coming back again next summer"
