Abundant birdlife and wildlife surround the property, including kangaroos and koalas.

The kitchen is fully equipped with all appliances, induction cooktop, fridge with water dispenser, Nespresso coffee machine, soda stream and walk in pantry.

This living area has comfy couches, wall mounted Smart TV, Sonos sound system, Foxtel, along with a wood fire for added warmth and ambiance. Sliding doors lead onto the wrap around deck area featuring an 8 person hot tub overlooking the river and bushland. There is also a large Beefeater BBQ, outdoor couches and shade.

All linen and towels are provided - you just need to bring beach towels for use at the beach or spa. There is an outdoor hot & cold shower for use coming back from the beach to wash the sand and salt off. Due to the location and surrounding wildlife (kangaroos & koalas), the property is not pet friendly.

River House is a perfect mix of beach and bush - with the river on one side and the sea on the other - it makes a great base and location for a range of outdoor activities. It is also an excellent base for relaxing in the various living areas at the house and enjoying the views and serenity.
