Suzy and Rick were very welcoming, arranging to pick us up at the station and taking us back at the end of our stay. The accommodation is extremely comfortable, and having the outside garden and beach area to use as well, is a real bonus. We were able to lay back and relax, without a care. The neighbourhood is quiet and safe. We were very happy to be able to spend 5 days in Patterson Lakes as a rest while we visited Melbourne.
