We truly enjoyed our stay. The house had everything, the fireplace, pool table, table tennis was really added to our comfort. The other good thing was about free Wi-Fi. Overall really good
The rooms were large and airy, with the 4/5 bedrooms well appointed and laid out well for multiple families. Enough space and welcoming options to to be together or find a nook on your own. The pool table was a hit with adults as was the ping pong table outside. Great back yard for playing chasey! A wonderful place for a family holiday.

We have stayed at Sunny Cove twice and had a great time. Having the pool table, table tennis table and dart board provided hours of entertainment.

Reviewer Comments:
Yes definitely a great rental for a large group. Lots of activities within the property - pool table, skittles, table tennis, darts, hookey and a few board games. Also two living areas and two outdoor spaces. One large outdoor space is undercover and would suit all-year-round use. Kitchen is well-equipped with tonnes of crochery, pots and pans and basic pantry stables. Note to access the 5th bedroom you have to go through the 4th - worked well for us but wouldn't suit everyone. The property is on the edge of town, but does make it quicker to get to Bairnsdale.

Reviewer Comments:
We had a great family weekend, the house was comfortable and I would happily recommend it. The only issue we had were there was no wood for the fireplace. There was old food and bits and pieces underneath the couch. The vacuum cleaner kept turning itself off so we were unable to give the house a vacuum when we left. I apologise, I think I forgot to turn the dishwasher on before we left.
