A unique van getaway, very retro and really comfy , loved all the decorations and soft furnishings, made it feel like home. Outdoor seating area was great in the afternoon, very quiet spot and yet close to town, was great to have a stay that was different from the usual.
Funky, Fun & Functional - Traveling from the States to see southern stars near Sliding Springs Observatory, I found this unique VRBO. Part glamping, part tiny house, this was perfect for a lone male traveler for a week. A restored antique travel trailer provided a funky but fully functional accommodation. Bed was comfortable, kitchen and clothes washer were functional and the outdoor shower had great hot water. Pleasant outside sitting area, lots of birds and a couple of horses in a nearby pen made it relaxing. A bit frayed around the edges and dusty reflecting the environment, but that’s okay. Host was accommodating and responsive but respected privacy. Would not hesitate to book for a single traveler or a couple.
Cute, cosy, and well equipped. Had a lovely time staying here. Great communication with the host. Loved the friendly welcoming committee (aka the horse across the fence).

I’m so thrilled you had such a nice time. And Mr H came to say hello he’s a lovely old boy. Hope you can make it back again some day :) Take care Alexander.
Cozy van in a beautiful and quiet location but not far from the stores, all the amenities listed were on point, wifi, hot water etc. Great customers service from the landlord, checking in on us and promptly answering inquiries. I definitely recommend

Thanks so much - Im really pleased you enjoyed the space and thanks for recommending me. Hope to have you back in our accommodation soon :)
Warm, cute, cosy, quirky, cluttered. Hot water in the kitchen was tricky and the small oven dysfunctional. Bed was really comfortable and the outside shower was great. Better if you don’t have a house dust allergy!

Glad that you loved your stay in our quirky fun van. We did notice after you left that you had unplugged the grill oven in the kitchen. That may have been why you had difficulty with it but there is also another oven outside as part of the barbecue that works perfectly as well you could have used too. The hot water in the kitchen works very efficiently if used properly as per instructions. If you have allergies, spring is possibly not the best time to be in the mountains as all the wattle is coming out. Take care Jane 🙏
