The location is truly amazing. The place very clean and tidy. We have been staying at this place for 5 years in a row and will coming back for as long as it is still available.I would definitely recommend staying here.I would give more stars if it was possible.
Always a great experience staying at The Boat Shed! Clean, well maintained, easily to access and in a great spot right on the river. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a great river getaway!
The boatshed is in a lovely location by the river shared by a couple of other properties. Despite the closeness of the houses, each lawned area is lined by trees which provides a feeling of privacy
The lawn area right down to the water is so picturesque and I can imagine summers on the lawn and dunking in the river would be next level relaxing! We hope to go back sometime to do just that
Such a wonderful space for our family to relax and unwind and reconnect. The owners were very accommodating to our needs, and it had everything for our home away from home. Will be booking again for our next family visit.
It was my second time here but this time with family. Everyone had a great time fishing and kayaking. At night we had a fire and the kids cooked marshmallows.
We have stayed at the Boatshed before and it never disappoints, excellent location, private spot and has everything we look for to relax.
We'll keep coming!
Thank you.
It was a trip down memory lane as l haven't enjoyed a short holiday on the Murray as much as this one for a long time. The bird life is amazing. Will be back.
Awesome location grounds are tidy and well maintained. Good outdoor area for friends to sit around and chat. Only downside would be rooms are very small and little ventilation.
Absolutely loved our stay! It was a perfect location and just the place we were looking for. Hosts were fantastic and easy to communicate with. We will definitely be back!
Great little family get away ,lovely place has everything you'll need. Private secluded feel lawned area. Only down was lawn/play area is taken up by cars as only parking area. Would definitely recommend and stay again
