Cheryl greeted us upon arrival, and she was very welcoming and helpful. The place was excellent for a quiet night’s stay away from the hustle and bustle of Victor Harbor. Still very close driving distance to shops and attractions.

Absolutely loved our stay! The house was spacious and super cozy, with plenty of beds for everyone. The fire pit made for the perfect nights under the stars, and the kitchen was honestly a dream to cook in. ✨ The location was amazing — peaceful, private, and surrounded by nature, but still close enough to everything we needed. Couldn’t have asked for a better spot to unwind. Highly recommend booking it in!
