Beautiful location and surrounds. However as soon as we got into the riverbank cottage we were quickly disappointed. The state of the cottage was abysmal. Our first encounter included the discovery of a toenail on the lounge room floor followed by another toenail in one of the made single beds. On the first night as we were filling up the bath to bath our toddler we were shocked at the state of the water. It was a dark brown colour. This was not something we felt comfortable allowing our toddler to bath in. We sent a message to clarify where the water was coming from. Although we were informed the water was from the creek and safe to drink this was questionable given the septic tank was overflowing into this same creek. We discovered this after being able to smell sewage from the back deck. On top of this there were quite a few other issues. The dryer wouldn't turn on. The stove and oven required a match to light as the ignition was broken and the BBQ worked intermittently. There were also rotten floor boards in the bathroom and no safety handrail for the staircase. We would have appreciated a warning about the water. In relation to the toenails this level of cleanliness is unacceptable. Finally the condition of the facilities does not justify the premium price we paid to stay at this accomodation.
