Long weekend getaway

We enjoyed our short family break at Koala Cottage. Great to be able to walk to the beach and General Store via the cut-throughs at the end of the court. Lovely verandah for relaxing with a good book and comfy couch to kick back and watch TV.

Koala Cottage was the perfect place to stay for our us with being so close to HMAS Cerberus and not too far from Melbourne. It was roomy and comfy. There was ample supply of everything we needed. Thanks Angela :)
