Economic stay

Overall it’s a good stay, but there was a discrepancy in online listing. After made payment online for whole family,Roger requested us to pay $100 for my children. This made me surprise. Eventually I had paid this amount.

Amazing little oasis in a bustling busy area

We had the best sleep amidst nature and surrounds despite being just off the busy street of Thompson Ave. the hosts are lovely to chat to and will bring you back to what’s real in the world.

Pleasantly different

Nice clean, self-contained cabin, but would be better for two rather than four occupants. Pull out sofa bed is, I suppose, expectedly uncomfortable, and the double size bed was a bit small for my 6'4" son, but we made do.

Great little place close to town

The property is a really cute little guest home, it has plenty of privacy with lots of trees, plants bushes etc, surrounding the house. Perfect size for a couple to stay in, they provided everything you may need and had great communication. The location is perfect, only a 10 minute walk into the Main Street and a short drive from all tourist attractions. Definitely recommend.
