Not perfect but perfect
2 families stayed here over the Australia Day long weekend. As displayed in the photos, the house is quite run down on the outside and in some parts in the inside but none of this affected our stay. Everything that mattered was great. Very clean, great working bathroom and kitchen, easy access BBQ, enough driveway parking for 2 x cars, 1 x boat and 1 x jetski, shops walking distance, the lake only a short drive. Thanks for having us!

Basic but generally priced appropriately
Tired - property - but clean and relatively well equipped. Have stayed here on numerous occasions. If its a clean and basic place you need to put your head down then it works well. If you need something fancy as you are planning on spending a lot of time there then it may not suit your needs.

Still good
Outside is a little weathered - inside is clean and functional. Does start to need some TLC but is a value for money stay.

We loved staying at the property, plenty of room for all of us & centrally located. The Coonara was amazing and having the assortment of games was a blessing at night, lots of fun and laughter.
