Loved the outdoor tubs, very unique as were also the amazing slab huts. Loved the bbq and facilities along with the pool. So peaceful and relaxing. Wonderful to see the family of Kangaroo's so close. Thank you for the stay and the courtesy bus to and from the train station. We would love to come again.

Basic Bush Accommodation
I stayed in a standard cabin. Which was standard. The bed was too soft for my preference. Small holes in walls allowed tge local wildlife inside, from small lizards to spiders etc. Some may enjoy that ithers may not. No daily housekeeping. Not sure why bunk beds in every cabin. A sofa would be preferred to watch tv from.
