Another great stay at the River House.

We have stayed here now three times and we always have a great time. The house is located at an exceptional spot, right on the river where you have your own beach and boat ramp. House is set up great with BBQ large entertaining table and another table and chairs, so excellent for entertaining and enjoying sitting and relaxing .Host is always friendly and everything is you need is there. Thanks again for another great stay.

Beautiful river house

The River house is a perfect place to get away from Sydney. The house was beautiful and clean, had everything you needed for adults and kids alike. Great outdoor area overlooking the river and the host was fantastic. We’ll definitely be back!

Easter Break

Fantastic location and very well presented / functional house, Perfect for what our group was after. Hosts were fantastic and provided us with all the information required. I do however recommend that dishwasher be looked at due to unable to see display along with the king size bed in main bedroom as it just does not feel right. Overall a great weekend and will definitely look at coming back again next year.

The house was beautifully positioned right on the river . It was quiet , serene and relaxing. We loved being able to fish from the property . The house was very spacious, comfortable and mostly clean. We really loved that the house provided two kayaks to use. All the kids enjoyed themselves. The laundry/bathroom downstairs was in need of an upgrade as there was patches of paint chipped off the walls . Also the tv upstairs wasn’t working so it was difficult to share one small tv amongst so many people. Our boat didn’t fit through the garage door as it was a normal size garage door quite low for a boat. Which was unfortunate . We had to birth at the local ramp which wasn’t far but it would have been much easier to do it at the house which was the main reason I rented it. Overall a good stay.

Amazing location

This property is exactly as advertised. An idyllic location taking in beautiful riverfront views. We stayed with 8 people and there was plenty of room for everyone. The rooms are large, spacious and comfortable, with plenty of cupboards and storage space in each. The extra full-size fridge/freezer in the bar area and additional kitchenette is perfect for extra food and drinks for larger groups. My teenagers loved Kayaking on the river and enjoying sitting around a fire pit each night (make sure to take fire wood). The back deck area overlooking the river is great for relaxing on with a morning coffee and plenty of room to have all meals. We never left in the 3 days we were there.The Kitchen is well equipped, however I would just suggest taking some additional dishwasher tablets if staying with a bigger group and eating in a lot, requiring using the dishwasher after most meals. Location was lovely and close for a long weekend getaway option from the Sydney area, while not having to contend with the usual long weekend or holiday traffic on freeways. The whole process was very easy from booking, communication, checkin/out and the host was great with communication. We would definitely recommend this Riverfront stay.
