About this property

South Rosedale Cottage and Retreat

From the generous deck of this 3 bedroom cottage you can gaze out onto the lagoon at the bottom of the garden, listen to the waves breaking on the nearby beach, or step down to the water-side deck. You can read, watch the native ducks swim past, ponder meandering fish, or just drift off.

Located in Rosedale Parade the Cottage is quiet and only a short walk from the beach.
The Cottage sleeps 6 adults and additional children (up to 2) may sleep on the sofa bed in the lounge room.

We are pet friendly with a dog house supplied and the back garden is fenced from the street (but not from the lagoon).

It's just a 2-minute level stroll to stunning South Rosedale beach. Great for a swim, a lazy read on the beach, or a bit of beach or rock fishing.

The main bedroom has a queen bed, the front bedroom has a double, and the middle bedroom has two single beds. There is a sofa in the lounge suitable for a child. Kitchen is fully equipped, and the house includes a dishwasher, washing machine and dryer.

Close to beach

Short walk to beach (pet friendly depending on time of year and hours) . Well stocked kitchen, bed comfy. Cleanliness of kitchen, bathroom and bed good however needs a thorough clean, cobwebs, mould on ceiling in loungeroom , messy out on deck. Biggest downfall for me was no free tv. You need to stream through a device and wifi often cut out. Overall a nice place to stay.

Could be nice if looked after, shame about the mould.

The place was pretty filthy, doesn't get cleaned thoroughly after each guest. The property has a serious black mould problem. Garden is a mess and overgrown. Location is good only meters from the beach.

Nice little property in a great location

The house is easy to find and backs onto the creek. It is a short walk to Rosedale beach, which is pet-friendly. The house is well-enough equipped, although it could do with a good clean and being aired out more frequently.

Girls weekend away

Brilliant location, was a little turned off because of the couch outside and cobweb’s outside however, the inside was clean and welcoming. The back deck was great, it was an easy walk to the beach and had an amazingly thoughtful choice of condiments and ‘essential’ items. Would definitely go again with a small group. Thank you 😊

This was the third stay at this property in Rosedale. Love the place

The beach really across the road and down a bit, easy walk. It’s a small yet comfortable little place with a nice outdoor area, good kitchen and bathroom and good sized bedrooms. We love as put treasured dog lives it too and he can come down to the beach too. Good bush walks near by too. The only thing I would prefer is a more comfortable lounge to sit on.

Why they chose this property

It's a small hamlet, very quiet with a great beach. The Cottage has a great atmosphere and is a perfect treat. Snorkelling is next door at Guerrilla Bay and kayaking is down at Mossy Beach. The kids love Mogo zoo.
