We wanted a nice quiet weekend away from the kids for my wife's 40th birthday and this place ticked all the boxes. Gretchen was lovely, brought us fresh eggs and pumpkin upon our arrival, showed us around and let us have our privacy the entire weekend. Fabulously minimal and rustic decor. Comfy king-sized bed. We cooked meals on the bbq and headed to Stuarts Point to soak in the sun at the beach, then catch a movie right up the road at Nambucca.

The 2-3 dogs on the property are extremely friendly without being bothersome. We did encounter a frog and spider on the first night in the toilet on the first night, but you can't expect to stay someplace rustic like this and not encounter a few insects! It was fine and if anything it added to the memorability of our stay.

Definitely recommend the nearby scenic drive up to Mount Yarrahapinni lookout (4WD advised, but our minivan was just fine) for a spectacular view.

Wouldn't hesitate to book this again for a future retreat. Loved it.
