Red Box Cottage - Tuross Heads

A fantastic property. Clean and well presented with gorgeous views over the river. Lots of stairs throughout the property and house so if you are less mobile you might need to consider this. Spending time on the back deck fishing and soaking up the sun was a perfect way to spend the afternoon. Really convenient Thai restaurant and Cafe next door - great meals. Country Club was a nice spot to have lunch, beautiful views over the lake.
