About this property

Relaxing getaway for the family - 25 meters from the river edge

It's time to unwind and enjoy the 180-degree river views, spacious open living, meters from the river's edge, a 5-minute walk to the main beach, and a 500-meter walk to the golf course; small dogs are welcome. Do you want a coffee, breakfast, or brunch? Stroll 100 meters to the local cafe.

Can't decide whether to fish, swim, surf, or have a hit of golf? The choice is yours!

After a busy or relaxing day taking in the views, you can dine in or dine out at the many restaurants that are all within walking distance. Or stay at home and cook up a BBQ while watching the sunset over the sparkling water.
Remember, the choice is yours!

Amazing location, right on the water, around the corner from Garage Cafe and a short walk into town. Beautiful area and felt very safe. The property is functional but older. Well-presented on arrival.

Family Stay over Easter
Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay at Murray's property over the Easter weekend. The property was very clean and is located close to the walking track, river, a cafe and golf course. The upstairs living area was the highlight of the property with great lighting and view of the sun setting each day.

Communication and check in process was great and efficient. Little surprise on arrival in the fridge was a nice touch. We stayed over a heatwave long weekend and struggled a little bit with a split system air con to cool the property - thank goodness for the sea breezes of an evening!

A perfect stay in an ideal location
My family (with three kids aged 11-4) and our dog stayed over late December/January and absolutely loved our stay. The location is brilliant for beach, cafe, shops and river and for bike rides. The house was very clean and well provisioned with everything we needed and plenty of space. Murray was an excellent communicator and it was a lovely neighbourhood. Thank you Murray for such a wonderful break.

Beautiful Sunsets and location
We enjoyed our stay with our teenage children. Murray was very easy to deal with and responded promptly to any questions I had. The house is spacious, clean, well appointed with comfortable beds and couches and a well stocked kitchen. The views over the river are beautiful. The house is in a quiet street and is in easy walking distance to the bowling club, golf course, shops and beach.

Family getaway
Beautiful river view and surroundings, friendly environment, gorgeous house with wooden interior, nice big windows for viewing. Overall a good experience, beds were comfortable and all necessary equipment available. Only issues we found when arrived was that the bathroom fan cover was dangling and was loose and there were some cobwebs. My family enjoyed the stay and found it relaxing and comfortable.

Amazing property, so close to the water and beach walking track. Watching the sun set each night from the comfy upstairs lounge room was awesome. Clean property throughout. puppy friendly, even has a doggy door out to the secure backyard. Just a short stroll to the garage cafe who serve a yummy breaky and rsl for a great evening meal. Great communication from Murray as well. Will definitely be back to stay again.
