Well appointed accommodations in a nice location.
To get the one major downside out of the way first: property is pretty close to the Lakes Way a major road and the noise can be a bother especially early in the mornings, given windows have to be kept open in summer.
Besides that:
property is set on lovely spacious grounds, perfect for a game of soccer, cricket, frisbee.. safe to run around as the creek at the end isn't too deep.
the outdoor firepit was a HUGE HIt with kids and adults alike.
the foodworks within a 3 min walk is a game changer! the store is also super friendly, and well priced.
and our favourite beaches (Elizabeths, Blueys) were oh so close.
Andre is a fab host: friendly, super-responsive. we had a few minor issues and he was on top of them in no time with pitch-perfect resolutions.
the layout of the house is pretty suited to families living together. air conditioning would be the icing on the cake (hint hint).. but the place has great flyscreens and fans.
