River retreat, stay on working farm acreage 15 minutes to Port Macquarie.

This rennovated 2 bedroom cottage is situated 13-15 minutes from Port Macquarie's town centre, and 18 minutes from the beaches. The cottage is fully self contained, with standard kitchen, fridge, microwave, coffee machine, reverse cycle air conditioning, dishwasher, washing machine, and dryer. Additional hesting and cooling is provided by oil heaters and ceiling fans in the bed rooms.

Lay on your bed looking out over the pastures and livestock. Enjoy relaxing on the river beach or launch your boat from our rustic ramp into the Maria River. The river carries a range of salt water fish and crabs. You can explore by paddling around Boomerang Island on our free to use kayaks and life jackets.

We are a working farm with border collies, cavaliers, chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, goats, miniature horses, cows, cats, guinea pigs, and rabbits. There are often baby animals to be viewed and cuddled, or eggs to be collected, in our animal nursery. Fresh eggs can be purchased for $5 per 1/2 doz (6) or $8 per doz (12).

RECENT RAIN: Please bring gumboots to enjoy the entire farm experience.

Please note that we are also Hipcamp Hosts, with other guests booked in 10 sites for self-contained camping along our river front. We have minimized bookings between the front of the cottage. We have also recently finished building a new house next to the cottage (after the March 2021 floods), with landscaping pending completion.
