"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."

"We had a lovely stay at this cottage. The fire kept us warm and snug. The wildlife was amazing and the view was fabulous. We knew we were in the bush as the penguins near our bedroom were busy talking and getting back to the sea at 6.00am in the morning They were very cute. Even though the weather was cool and rainy we could still rug up to see the penguins at night time. The echidna and the kangaroos were also welcome visitors on the road into the cottage each day. Communication with Wilma and Eric was easy even though they were out of the state. Problems were dwelt swiftly and graciously. Thank youLynne, Mark and Lynda "

"The property’s rural location is fabulous and offers outstanding views across Snelling beach. The ambience is lovely and the property is well equipped. Each pod is well separated from its neighbour. The bed is very comfortable and there is absolute silence at night. Our two night stay was delightful. However, as it is off grid there is no microwave, toaster or washing machine. We were disappointed there were no coat hangers to hang our clothes. It would be advisable to take some insect repellant as we had quite a few mosquitoes gain entry on our last night."
