The size and lay out of this property was excellent for our large extended family. The property is well fenced and great for kids. A few items require maintenance, but overall a very nice property in a good location. Not convinced that there are any fish in the dam!

The property well and truly catered for a large family group celebration. Everyone had privacy and room to spread out for down time. The outdoor fire, bar area and spa was a huge hit. The host communicated promptly and was flexible with my requests which was greatly appreciated.

Fabulous home

Perfect resort style home for one or more families or group of friends. Comfortable beds. Activities to keep our teens entertained the whole time and the parents. Great home for entertaining. My favourite spot was sitting in the room by the lake in front of the fire, ideal place to relax. Highly recommend.
