GETTING THERE

Mooney Mooney is the stepping off point to the Hawksbury River and is accessed by the F3 ( approximately 1 hour 15 minutes from Sydney).
There is a boatramp with parking for both your car and boat trailer, just after crossing the Hawksbury River Bridge from Sydney turn left and proceed approximately 200 metres to a roundabout, turn left and proceed to the boat ramp.
Using either the water taxi service or your own boat, \"River Retreat\" is just 15 minutes from the boat ramp.

  • "Cottage was very comfortable though husband found climbing to the top bunk a challenge. All necessary equipment was supplied and well cared for. Sitting on the verandah was ideal nd we had several walks in both directions. Great for visiting Peats Bite."

  • "Thankyou Gregg. My family and I had a fabulous stay at River Retreat. It is a charming cottage, very tidy and very well equipped. I couldn't believe we were so close to Sydney, it seemed like we were hours away. We loved the rock pool at Bar Point, what a gem it is. We'll be back :-)"
