Wonderful position to explore beautiful Kangaroo Island. Home contained everything we required for a family holiday and Bruce the kangaroo delighted the 7 year old beyond the gate each day. Thank you.

The view from deck is utterly fantastic. Loved watching the ferrys arrive and depart, and seeing pods of dolphins swim by in the sea. And the birdlife in the garden amazing! Terrific wood heater inside for the evenings, with plentiful supply of wood. So cozy.Beds very comfortable.

Stunning Outlook

The outlook (from the deck and the living areas of the house) over the bay and the ocean is one of the best of any place we have ever stayed. The house was clean and has everything you need. Website info is accurate and check-in and contact with owner very smooth. Highly recommended.

Peaceful

My wife and I were going to take our Cavoodle but then realised we couldn't take her as the 'pet friendly' element meant that she couldn't be in the house but could stay outside. Nick was nice enough to say we could keep her in the laundry to sleep. We ended up leaving her at home and still had the best time! The place was so peaceful.

Totally amazing. I'm in love.

Nick and his amazing cleaner Dallys were so good and accommodating to us even tho we rocked up a day early cos of my mess up. The house was spotless and had everything you need including waking up on the last morning and looking out the window to dolphins playing in the ocean. Nothing bad at all to say about this place. Loved it. Will recommend to everybody. Thanks guys for being so awesome and having such a beautiful place for us to stay.

Great location, but wouldn't stay again.

On arrival, we were highly disappointed to see the lawns were extremely overgrown and the weeds were in abundance. The atmosphere outside was therefore ruined and we were unable to enjoy the backyard with our small children. We feel this was an unacceptable way to rent your home out to paying people. The house has many cobwebs all over and many arachnids reside at the home. Overall, the rest of the house was okay, but could use some upgrades. For example the washing machine was so noisy, it was difficult to tolerate. The beds were really comfortable and the linen was also great so that was appreciated. The house was well equipped. Location and view was really good. Very close to the ferry.

Thanks for your feedback. The recent wet weather has been problematic for everyone with a garden. It's a shame you didn't let us know about the lawns as we could have arranged a gardener immediately.
