Our stay at Deep Creek Retreat was incredible. The house is an absolute treasure - a mesmerising view, beautiful garden perfect to sit and spend time in reading or having a cup of tea, and the house was beautifully and generously appointed.The beds were very comfortable with lovely linen, and the kitchen was a joy to cook in.Sandra is a fantastic host, kind and highly responsive. The house was gleaning when we arrived on New Year’s Eve. We loved every minute and are already planning our next stay!

Deep Creek Retreat is truly magical. Set on 2.5 acres, the gardens are beautifully designed, featuring a charming walled garden and an incredible mix of native and exotic trees. The property offers breathtaking views across to Kangaroo Island and feels wonderfully secluded, yet it’s the perfect base for exploring this part of South Australia.The home itself is a delight. Fully off-grid but equipped with every modern comfort, it’s clear the owners have thoughtfully included everything needed for a relaxed and enjoyable stay. We absolutely loved our time here and will definitely be returning soon for another peaceful getaway.

Great property

The house was terrific with loads of space and magical views. We were relatively close to all of the required touristy places to visit, however the property was very self sufficient, quiet and just wonderful for a few days away from every day life, a great place to stay.

This place is a sanctuary. A place away from the hustle and bustle of life. Lots of wildlife and birds. This time of year can be cool but the large wood fire, a good book and a glass of wine is the best holiday. Thank you

Relaxing Family Getaway

Deep Creek Retreat was the absolute perfect place to enjoy our first ever long weekend away with our 11-month old. The house and grounds were immaculate and very well looked after, we enjoyed wandering through the garden and spending time away from our phones and TV. We loved the privacy but also how easy it was to get to places like the beach. And being able to bring our dog along made it even better! We can't wait to come back.

Lovely peaceful getaway

This is a beautiful place to stay to reconnect with nature and each other. Very cozy, fireplace keeps you warm in winter, excellent hot water and pressure in the shower. The garden is nicely secluded and the views are just stunning. Lots of birds and Kangaroos. Convenient location for walks and exploring. Fantastic communication with property owner. Has everything needed for a comfortable stay.
