This holiday home was perfect for a relaxing weekend, enjoying the wild life and river view, the property was very well presented, clean and comfortable.
Great little home with a great view. Excellent communication with the host. Everything we needed for a great stay. Beautiful area Morgan. Loved that they even had board and card games to play.
Great price, and so many extra inclusions. Felt so homely.
We arrived late, and left early, but it would be perfect for a large family to stay. We had a lovely surprise with a kookaburra on the porch in the morning
Had work commitments in Morgan, very happy that we found this accommodation. it exceeded our expectations.A home from home with bonuses. great views, alot of information supplied with extra reading material if wanted.Thouroughly recommend this property.
It was lovely to experience the friendly local birds, be able to experience a camp fire, play billiards and all in an easy walk to the town. Getting down to the river was a bit tricky from this home but it was a quiet and peaceful location to fish.
It was a comfortable and relaxing stay.
Leah was lovely to deal with. The property was lovely and clean, well presented and so easy to arrange the rental. We had a very long day of travelling and were grateful for such a lovely house to stay in!
We had a great time we will be back with family. Huge space owner does a great job presetation wise. We had everything we needed. Burds come and eat out of your hand. Air con great. A positive relaxing space.
Leah is a great host and goes out of her way to give her guests a great stay. Her well appointed home overlooks the river with great walking trails to explore,just across from the property. A highlight is the front veranda decking with sweeping views, and plays host to various bird life that enjoy popping in for a feed. Also a great place to enjoy a bbq/read, relax with a drink etc. A great place to chill out. Thankyou for making our stay an enjoyable one.
We had a relaxing stay, with everything we needed and plenty of great spots to sit and relax. I liked being up on the cliff, with an amazing panoramic view of the river and floodplains, across the mallee forest. thanks!
A beautiful place to stay with family and friends! So much to do around the area. Had more than enough kitchen appliances to towels, bedding and everything you need! Kids absolutely enjoy the pool table, tv and books.
Leah was very accommodating and got back to me with any questions. We definitely will be staying here again.

About the host
Hosted by LEAH THOMAS
I currently live remote in an Aboriginal Community and you will see this influence reflected in my property name Tjunkaya, pronounced with a silent "T" and with art work that is displayed in my home. I have lived in Morgan for approx 2 years out of the 10 that I have owned the property, even though I work away, I still have friends and connections within the town, so if anything goes wrong there is always a helping hand just down the street. I grew up in Adelaide, went to Madison Park Primary School and Salisbury East High School. I love sharing my home with guests, its just got too good a view and atmosphere not to share it with people. All my friends and family tell me they love coming to stay because it is so relaxing and serene and you can make your holiday what you want, a fun filled sports holiday or a relaxing and rejuvenating one. Great for budding authors, contractors and workers visiting Morgan for work. Even though I am remote, i am still available 24/7 via mobile and will organise what I can to make your stay more comfortable and enjoyable, just let me know. I am in the middle of painting and redecorating and setting up the home properly for your utmost enjoyment, so i appreciate your patience and feedback, i have kept prices low to reflect this.
