Parking and Distance to house
Parking and the walk to the residence could be outlined a lot better. For older people it’s a bit of a struggle carrying eskies and other heavy items from the parking area through the yard to the house.

Sufficient
Our stay was sufficient. The kitchen was fairly well equipped. Rooms & bathrooms were reasonably clean & comfortable. We found the house was a tight fit for 7 as the kitchen & lounge area was small with no dining area in the house. There is a large dining table on the deck which we used well. The description says pool but there is definitely no pool at this property. We went to the Eurong Resort & asked if we could use their pool & they said it wasn't a problem so the kids used every afternoon after being at the beach all day. There was no one in the house in front but I guess if there was there would be a lack of privacy & shared bbq area. Overall the house was clean & we slept well each night but is old & small.

Old and mouldy
Odd layout, no door on one bedroom. No plugs in bedrooms. Kitchen fat/grease in cupboard above stove. Building bricks and odd fences around the property. Bathrooms old and mouldy. Lovely lady who we dealt with but I’m pretty sure the reviews said ‘fabulous’. Someone is fudging those reviews. Far from it!

Be great to have a fan in living room. TV wasn't getting signal but no big deal for us. If weather was bad, this may of been an issue however. Karen was great to deal with. Very easy process.

Great location
The house, though small, fit our needs perfectly. Hosts have put in effort to provide all of the kitchen utensils and equipment you could possibly need. BBQ on the deck, and ample, comfortable furniture throughout the house. The location is a real winner, perfectly placed on the island, allowing us to see so many sites of Fraser.

Great location for exploring South & Central Fraser
Clean enough for what your paying, while looking run down from outside. Two bathrooms saves this house and beds are very comfy. We luckily didn't have 3 of our kids come (covid) as this house has 8 beds but cannot accommodate 8 people! It isn't 3 bedrooms, it's 2 with a sleepout that has double bed, so no privacy! The BBQ isn't working properly, kept blowing out and gas filling the air! Glasses not washed properly. It was cheaper than most and that's attractive. No place to eat inside means you have to eat outside with mozzies and sandflies. After coming to Fraser for thirty years, it was good to have a place shower and sleep, but will try elsewhere next time that fits 8 people.

Great area, short walk to shop, Karen and Tony were awesome hosts and very helpful also made you feel like you were still at home.
