A great family hideaway - so much fun. Open fires, all the amenities you need.

We had the best time, so close to fishing and we caught heaps of marron and enjoyed our stay on the property. So many beautiful day trips out in glorious wildlife and countryside. The kitchen was all stocked and we could cater for all our guests for our party with the huge oven, glasses, coffee machine, cutlery and platters to boot.

Perfect for our big family!

A room for everyone with and en-suite, a place for everyone at the table, everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. We had a wonderful stay excellent for a large group with kids. Definitely would recommend to anyone headed to KI in a group. Thanks again.

The Gum Valley Quarters was very spacious, with many bedrooms and bathrooms, to host large groups of people. There are many movies to choose from, and the drive there is scenic. There is plenty of space outside and the firepit always has wood stocked. All rooms were very clean and had fresh bathroom towels ready, as well as a room heater for the cold. Overall, this is a ideal place for large groups to stay when coming to Kangaroo Island.
