We wanted a cost effective few days away to go bushwalking with the kids and this place is perfect. Right next to the national park, nicely equipped cabin and very peaceful.

Thanks for the lovely review Andrew. Yes there are some great hiking tracks connected to our secluded getaway.
Loved the timber cottage decor and the deck with the view of the woods. This location has lots of wildlife.
Was fun trying to identify the various species of birds that we encountered here. The cottage is well thought out and stocked with everything required to cook.
