The location sells you on this place. Big front yard, some shady areas on the edges to sit in at midday, and a great view of the bay. We had a great weekend. Would stay there again.

Amazing location, we managed to get an amazing home to stay in that we loved. It had everything you needed including a meat thermometer that we desperately needed for our tomahawk steaks. The hosts were very helpful and friendly AAA +++ Regards, Fordy & Family

Classic kiwi bach

It was like stepping through a time portal in the best way. Cute and cozy, and a stones throw from the boat ramp, ideal.

A kiwi bach from the 70s

Great location for this kiwi bach from the 70s. Don't expect anything modern as it is not in this bach. Does have a great fridge freezer.

Amazing location.

Such a great location opposite the water and close to boat ramp. We loved our stay here and was perfect for our family. Be aware, this is a very very dated kiwi Bach.
