All the family had a very enjoyable stay did a lot of exploring around the area

The only problem was the fire alarm going off due to a flat battery and there might have been a possum in the roof otherwise the renting process was great thank you

Peaceful paradise

The house was fantastic and exactly what was advertised. Difficult to believe that something so centrally located could be so peaceful and pretty. Really clean and welcoming and well appointed. The only thing lacking (which we knew in advance) was a bbq. We loved it.

Review of Airbnb

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location, house had everything we needed, the house was clean but unfortunately had a strong smell of damp/mould upon arrival and throughout the stay. Would recommend looking into that issue as it made our stay a bit uncomfortable. Other than that it was a great holiday.

Beautiful House but a bit damp

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was beautifully decorated and had probably the best kitchen set up of anywhere we've stayed, plus the location was excellent. However we wouldn't rent it again due to how mouldy it smelt. Particularly the back bedroom, which we chose not to sleep in, and slept in the lounge instead.

Really lovely property, Huatoki Walkway great, had everything we needed.

Really lovely property. Close to town. We used the walkway alot. Everything was great. Really appreciated set up with all you would need and recycling. It does need a microwave bowl. Lounge floor needed a thorough vacuum and table had crumbs from prior tenants. Otherwise was beautifully tidy and clean. Thank you
