Perfect Weekend Getaway

Our weekend stay was absolutely wonderful! The property was spotless, beautifully appointed, and had all the thoughtful touches that made it feel like a home away from home. The host's warm hospitality and attention to detail made our experience truly special. We couldn’t have asked for a better getaway and would highly recommend this place to anyone!

School holidays getaway

Lovely part of the world for a quick escape. Great home with enough room for you to have some quiet time and for group activities. Lots for the kids to be entertained with, too.

Relaxing stay in the trees

Lovely quiet peaceful and relaxing stay. The house was beautiful with plenty of room for us to spread out and relax. Lots of thoughtful extras like the games area to keep everyone happy. We enjoyed exploring the local area going for lakeside walks with our little dog, and swimming at the beach

Our brief stay in this lovely home is delightful from start to finish. Angie made the booking and checkin process seamless, and the home was very charming. It is clean, cozy and had plenty of facilities such as the table tennis set and board games that make for a great family time away. Little touches such as the portable speaker, clear instructions and handbooks shows the care that Angie puts in ensuring a wonderful stay for her guests.

Quiet bushland beauty

This home was perfect for a family get away. The tranquility of the home and surrounds was wonderful. We loved the little touches including thoughtfulness like sharp knives. The arcade games were an absolute hit. This was a fabulous get away.

Felt right at home

We loved our stay at Murrays Beach and felt right at home. The house is very comfortable, with a lovely style. The house is private, with a gorgeous leafy outlook (and visits from native birds). Very comfortable beds, lovely linen and extra blankets in every room. We stayed on a very cold weekend and there were excellent heating to keep the house very cosy. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen and loved the large open plan kitchen/living/dining, with lots of natural light (even on a very grey weekend). Murrays is a beautiful natural environment, lovely for all ages.

Beautiful Stay

Lovely getaway, the house is a bit smaller than it appears on the website and the pool is a common pool not private as how I understood it. However, the layout of the new house is perfect for the 7 of us and its not a bother to drive to the pool and lovely side walk. We really enjoyed our stay and the house is well equipped with even olive oil in the kitchen and games in the game room. Can not fault anything!!! The host is so lovely and accommodating and responsive! We all had a lovely time. Thank you Angie for opening your beautiful home for our stay. Kerry

Thanks so much for your lovely review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. I’m sorry it’s not clear about the pool being a shared community pool, I will see if we can clarify that somehow in the listing. Your review will help with this I’m sure. The house itself is not huge but big enough with the outdoor areas to accomodate 2 families and a fur baby. I hope you will come back soon as you were an amazing guest. Appreciate your kind words.
