Never again - no heating, not even any toilet paper
1.0It’s a great spot and has a lot of potential
− The advertisement said 7 beds - only 5. The heater/aircon had been apparently broken for 3 months yet that wasn’t advised to us at all. Staying somewhere in the middle of winter with no heating and a baby. Everything about the property was either broken or just mouldy. They didn’t even give us toilet paper and when we contacted staff we were ignored.
Guest review
2.0− There was no signboard to indicate which property is which unless we drive near to it and to find our designated house it was a bit of ride We had planned to prepare dinner as it has a kitchen But there was no lighter to on the gas top and grill and over were not working and messy There was some wired hidden rules like we need to clear the bins and not jus clean but put away the dishes
Great cabins and ideal gated private garden for the dogs.
10.0Great staff. Very helpful. Thank you for going to the trouble of coming out to bring assiste key when I locked myself out.
− Nothing.
Guest review
8.0price ,location, was nice and peaceful. close to everything fun.
− place was good has potential to be beautiful, grounds need work. also 90km straight out of the exit and entry was wild. but that's a Council problem.
Cozy retreat in Port Stephens.
9.0Location, nice staff, cozy, private.
− The overall structure is quite old, and it can be seen especially from the bathrooms.
