Lovely spot

Great location with shops, restaurants/cafes, amenities close by. Would be an ideal house for families. Has plenty of seating areas inside and out. The dog loved running around outside under our management and there’s a fenced in courtyard with bbq and high table/chairs. Great spot for fishing as we saw plenty of fish.

Great location

Loved our stay here. Right on the canal, and easy walk to settlement city or into city Centre. The house had everything there that we needed. We had our two small dogs with us and the fenced off area for them was very secure. The bed in the main bedroom was extremely firm, but plenty of other beds to choose from. We will definitely stay here again.

Fantastic spot

Great spot on the canal. Comfortable home with everything you need, close to shops, easy drive to beaches - but don’t even need to go as the water is right there in the backyard, so we did heaps of paddle boarding and used the kayaks that are available at the property also. Nice dock to dive from and the dog LOVED it too as he could just jump in the water whenever we were outside. Wonderful holiday, hope to return there again

Tranquility

Great spot, so peaceful and lovely to see the water . Though I was slightly concerned by the bars on the windows. Perfect for our small dog and lots of room for the kids. Great property, the the kitchen could do with some upgrades and the cupboards need a good clean out… lots of miss matched dishes and many plates and cups had to be cleaned before we could use them… such a shame when the rest of the property was so good.

Great location, home a litte dated

We had a wonderful long weekend here but the listing is a little inaccurate/dated. There is only one kid kayak and it has a hole. The reverse aircon didn't heat so we made do with the oil heater. The bedding seems quite worn. Other than that, we were super happy with the place! Very kid friendly and so convenient to have shops close by. Kitchen is well stocked with plenty of plates and cutlery, pots and pans.

Sorry, the standard of this poorly maintained property was disappointing for the money. Beds too hard to sleep on. Bars on windows. Bedroom window didn't open for fresh air.

Walking distance to shopping centre for groceries etc, also pub,RSL. Homely feel. Needs upgrading in bathroom as noise from the water pipes are extreme. Kitchen dated.But fine. There were nicnaks all over the home and not attractive. Bbq was extremely dirty, the gardens and where untidy and had items left here and there. It needs a total removal of pots and piles of bits and bobs removed. The wardrobes smelt musty. In need of revamp..
