Great house and location
House was extremely clean and everything was provided. We made use of the jetty and the ramp to launch our boat. Enjoyed the serenity and the views. Will stay again and recommend this house.

Place was fantastic
Hassle free, had everything we needed from toddlers to adults, fishing was good, kayaking was great, but like everywhere nowadays has idiots on JetSkis, nearly hooked one when he broke my fishing rod & line by not looking where he was going at a thousand kms an hour on a small river system…but will be looking to book again but next time for longer if available, hosts were great

Great Secluded Location
Absolutely loved this house! Great views in every room. House was clean and well stocked with essentials. Boat ramp and personal jetty was a big plus. Nice verandah to enjoy the afternoon and watch the sunset! Was getting cool at night when we were there, so the firepit was a bonus.

Fantastic break away
We were so impressed with the cleanliness and how well appointed this house was. Such a beautiful location and a comfortable place for us, a group of 6 plus our dog. Whether we were outside enjoying nature the picturesque large trees, the wonderful waterways and a little nightime fire, or inside cooking together and playing games or watching movies, we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We did not want to leave! Highly recommend for a stress free getaway.

The kind of place that feels like home
This was our second visit to this slice of paradise. It has everything for the fishing and pet lover. The new owners have fixed up the place fantastically. Fishing with bait a quick paddle away. A private jetty and large yard. We have only just left and we are already planning dates to return.

Toogoom retreat
Lovely and peaceful place close to amentities,alot of rain lately ,so alot of fresh water in the system, but my cousin and I had to have the talk that no fisherman ever wants to have,("I cant eat anymore mudcrabs,what about you,lets pull the crabpots out of the water""ok")read the visitors book about the best place to set your crab pots, Thank you Kleyre,you made it easy for a couple of old tech tards,so easy to deal with and you were contactable,p.s I thought the Google music thing was an electronic photo album, lucky the Cuz's were a bit IT savy,highly recommended ,very relaxing and enjoyable
