About this property

ABSOLUTE FRONTAGE TO THE MURRAY RIVER!

Murray River Retreat is very well appointed large 6 bedroom, 2 lounge rooms and a family room, Hampton's Style home.

No expense spared on furniture, beds, pillows, linen and styling, every convenience you can think of for a comfortable stay.

There is plenty of room in this holiday home for three families or a group of twelve good friends to celebrate a milestone birthday or just to connect and create some amazing memories! Unfortunately we cannot accomodate parties or weddings. We are a family and friends holiday home.

Situated on the Murray River, you will have your own private jetty to use, whether for your boat or simply sit on the jetty and watch the dolphins and boats go by. Launch your boat at Young Road Boat Ramp (very close to the property), then park your boat at our jetty for your entire stay. Most of the holiday rental homes in South Yunderup are on the canals, we are front and centre on the Murray River with boats going by constantly, such a FABULOUS outlook.

BEDROOMS ...
Six bedrooms in total which sleeps 12. All rooms have quality comfortable beds with minimal partner disturbance, hotel quality linen professionally laundered and four pillows per bed to choose between firm, soft or feather. The configuration is three bedrooms upstairs with queen beds, (two of the rooms are large with river views). Three bedrooms down stairs (two have queen beds, one large room with river views and two rooms overlooking the back yard. One with a queen bed, one with two single/twin beds).

BATHROOMS...
Two bathrooms, one upstairs to service three rooms and one down stairs to service three rooms. Two toilets in seperate rooms, not in the bathrooms. One upstairs and one down stairs.

MULTIPLE LIVING SPACES...
Two large lounge rooms, both with river views, one with a TV and entertainment unit and the other is set as a sitting room with views of the river, books, jigsaws etc. One large games room off the kitchen area with a pool table.

ACTIVITIES...
Many board games for adults and children.
A Canadian canoe for two adults and two children, two kayaks, pool table, table tennis, Finska and a few children's playgrounds within walking distance.

THREE DAYS MINIMUM STAY
Minimum stay is 3 days (please, no requests for less than 3 days) due to the time it takes to get the home ready for our guests, we require a full day to prepare in between guests. Christmas and New Year bookings are a minimum of 7 days. Trust me you won't want any less during this fabulous time of year.

WINTER WARMER STAYS
Winter stays are "simply MAGICAL". There is a fire pit, outdoor gas heater and we provide a basket of throw blankets to rug up and enjoy the peaceful winter evenings where the river is more than often perfectly still. Evenings you can hear a pin drop it's so quiet.

UNFORTUNATELY NO PETS
Although we love pets, unfortunately we are unable to accomodate pets during your stay. We hope you have a family member or friend who can look take care of your fur babies.

You will just love the atmosphere and the tranquility of being on the Murray River.
We look forward to hosting you at Murray River Retreat.

Kerrie and Andrew :)

MORE INFORMATION:
You will have such a magic time with your friends and family! Here is some local information regarding restaurants accessible by boat, car and walking.

FIRSTLY OUR BBQ - we have such a magic location on the Murray River, you may not want to leave :)

RESTAURANTS BY BOAT! Sandy Cove Tavern, Jetty’s Bar and Grill Ravenswood Hotel, Pelicans Cafe (great for fish and chips). All have jetty’s to tie up to. We are close to the Estuary so getting into Mandurah for restaurants is really easy if you have a waterways map.

PELICAN’S CAFE - walk along the Murray River front to the right, cross and little bridge and you arrive at Pelican’s, or by boat. An easy paddle on the canoe or kayaks.

PINJARRA - The Exchange Hotel a new trendy pub, huge and fabulous location.

PINJARRA EDENVALE HERITAGE TEA ROOMS - 2 Henry Street Pinjarra, it’s a historic homestead with some collectable gear out the back in the big sheds.

PINJARRA PREMIER HOTEL - we’ve only just discovered this place, it’s a typical pub but the food is excellent. My friends recently said “it’s the best steak sandwich” they have ever had. On the weekend they have a trio or band playing in the beer garden.

DWELLINGUP - only 35 minutes from the holiday home. Great little cafe’s, Hotham Valley Train usually departs twice a day for a 40 minute trip into the Forrest, 20 min walk, then back again.

Wonderful weekend retreat

We’ve just spent a fabulous weekend here, the house is absolutely stunning and had everything that we could’ve possibly wanted. The whole place was lovely and the kitchen was so well equipped, it was a joy to cook. We especially loved the tranquility of sitting outside with the river view and we were blessed to see some dolphins frolicking in the river. Will definitely be back!

Relaxing and Tranquil

Our 3 night stay was just perfect. We loved the tranquility and relaxing vibe of the property and it’s location on the Murray River was amazing. Kerrie, the host, could not be more lovely or attentive of her guests. It’s always the little things. 💗🍷 The property has everything you could ever need and more. From the luxury bedding and furnishings, to the beautifully designed kitchen which made the stay just a dream. I hope we get the opportunity to stay here again soon 😊.

Beautiful house and location

This house is absolutely perfect for a relaxing girls wkd. We’re a group of 10 ladies celebrating a special birthday. The location is peaceful and stunning. Exactly as described. The house has everything you could need inside and out. It was very comfortable and well appointed. Little touches of luxury everywhere. And the kayaks are essential! We saw Pelicans, dolphins and had a late night visit from a kangaroo. I have no doubt we will be back. One of the best holiday homes we’ve ever stayed in!

Amazing weekend getaway!

The property was perfect. Kerrie has put so much thought into every detail of the property. You literally just need your food and personal items and everything else is sorted. The canoes down the river were so much fun. Relaxing outside on the lawn at sunset watching the boats go by was a highlight of our stay. We would definitely stay again.

70 th birthday family

We spent a family holiday in the property for my husbands 70th birthday. Group consisted of us, our two boys and their wives and 4 granddaughters. The house was very clean and well presented. We all had the best time from canoeing to table tennis to pool table. We had visits from mum and dad swan with their baby, a few families of ducks and a quick passing of the dolphins. The fire pit was great with all wood supplied. This was topped off with lots of things to do in the area. What more could we ask for? Would we recommend this property? Most definitely. Would we book again? Yes.

This house is so beautifully located on the river, we went for many walks that took us to wonderful natural spots with lots of bird life and water. The house was extremely well presented and spacious. A high standard of cleanliness and comfort. There was plenty of space and retreat spots for the 6 women that stayed there. Ample sitting areas for large groups both inside and out. We will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Kerrie Fletcher

Host profile image
Hi there! my name is Kerrie. Our beautiful holiday home has been our family holiday home for over 25 years. 8 years ago the house underwent a major renovation to turn the home into what it is today, a beautiful 6 bedroom, 2 bathroom, Hamptons style holiday home. In May 2023 we fully repainted the interior and no expense was spared with re-styling.

Why they chose this property

Murray River Retreat is located on the Murray River. There are limited properties with absolute water front and we are lucky enough to own one of them. You will have your own private jetty which can house two boats if necessary and your own little private beach for the kids. There is everything you need inside and out.

What makes this property unique

Large alfresco overlooking the Murray River, dolphins pass by most days.
Six bedrooms.
Two separate lounge areas, one family room with pool table, perfect for families.
Lots of games.
Canadian canoe sits 4 easily.
