We had a really lovely stay. The house was nice tidy, warm and beautifully clean. Really nice Communication. Us adults could relax easy and the kids were having a ball. Really well thought out house with everything and more we needed. We would love to come stay again soon!
Immaculately presented property with heaps of space, a fantastic game's room and lots for young kids to do. Quiet surroundings close to Lincoln township. Would highly recommend this property and the generosity of hosts.
This place had everything you need for a relaxing stay away. The place is super comfortable The communication from the owners was first class. Fits a group with ease. Will definitely be back when we come down next
Overall, very nice experience with nice surprises in the garage.
Complimentary baskets and beverage was a very nice touch and really appreciated.
Would have preferred to receive the check in instructions a bit earlier, instead of strictly 24 hours prior. this can be inconvenient if you are in an area that has not internet access.
