OPEN HOUSE @ Goolwa

Description

A comfortable house with a 'beach shack' feel, with 4 bedrooms, situated between Goolwa Beach and the Murray River Lake foreshore. We are near the South Lakes Golf Course, close to AquaCaf restaurant and Goolwa Aquatic Club, Goolwa Regatta Yacht Club and the new Ballast Stone Restaurant at the Wharf, all just a 10 minute walk. This is a private holiday home, in a great holiday area protected by native gardens & trees.

Our house rates highly on this website totally by positive guest approvals and our good service. It is a quality two-storey house at South Lakes. It has four (4) bedrooms with one being a large bunk house layout downstairs.

Goolwa is a 70 minute drive from Adelaide by the Hills road (Mt Barker & Strathalbyn) or by the Victor Harbor Road. You don't need to bring much to have a great time.

[Guest comment in 2010: "We had a fantastic long weekend. It was very quiet and relaxing and the way you have set up the home meant we had everything on hand. The open plan of the house meant that we could have our own space but still talk to each other! On Sunday morning we went for a walk around the area and it felt like we had been away for weeks. It really felt like our holiday house, so thank you so much for sharing it with us." Ali & Brian, Adelaide.]

[And June 2011: "We recently had to attend a family event in Goolwa and would normally use a motel for such a sudden visit but this was so much better. The instructions were foolproof, the place was spotless and had everything that you would normally reach for at home. We are home again now and it seems like it was with much less effort than usual and we can only put it down to being able to relax like we were at home."]

Nature: You will hear the rolling ocean, just beyond the golf course. Goolwa Beach has very rare on-beach access for careful 4WD adventurers to the Murray Mouth and beach fishing. The sheltered saltwater Coorong boat ramp at Beacon 19 is just a few minutes drive down Barrage Road, for fishing in tidal waters near the Mouth. Bird watchers will be amazed with the wild life. This is Five Star Wilderness without the hype and just a few minutes from our house.

The house has comfortable room for 7-8 people, or for two flexible families with children. Comfortable modern furnishings and a big split system heat/cool air-conditioner unit are a feature. Toilet facilities upstairs and down. Under the balcony there's a big gas BBQ ready for dinner and breakfasts. Plus a Weber charcoal Kettle BBQ if you know how.

South Lakes Goolwa is ideal for families to enjoy water sports and fishing. The water is now flowing in the Murray at Goolwa and you have sea access by the famous Barrage Lock is open to cruise to the Coorong and Mouth. Water skiing, parasail boarding, trailer-sailing or even model boating is a feature of the protected lakes. You are just a minute from the water at Open House Goolwa.
