A well designed space with all rooms well prepared for a holiday stay. We really appreciated coming in on a cold day to find the unit heated, it made us feel very welcome. Books, dvds, access to TV all helped us relax. Parking was excellent. There was a bit of a glitch with initial communication, could have been our lack of computer skills! It would have been helpful to have more booklets / brochures info about local areas available. A map or two? Our GPS gave us some help but we haven’t found the Redhead Walkway yet! All in all a delightful four restful days. Thank you

What an amazing property this is!! We could not fault anything, everything is so clean & inviting. The location is beautiful with views directly over the lake. We were there for a skydiving experience & the location to it was excellent, only a few minutes to travel. Check in was easy with the code sent to us. Off street parking for our 2 cars. The home is easily warmed this time of year & made for a very comfortable stay. The kitchen has everything you would need for your stay. Thank you to our hosts, we would love to revisit some time in the future. Sandra, Kylie & Amanda
