Absolutely fell in love with Emerald after this trip. Fresh air, majestic forest walks and waking to the sounds of birds singing is a healing balm to the soul after a long stint in lockdown.
The wonderful hosts made me feel so welcome and helped me get the most out of the area, even without a car. You're walking distance to the town and a beautiful short walk along a creek which leads you back to the house or right to an alpaca farm. I spent an afternoon exploring the Lake walk/area reading a book in the afternoon sun and finishing my day eating at Elevation @ Emerald where I bumped into a few locals I'd seen along my journey throughout the day.
The place itself is comfortable and has everything you need with bonus lemon tree nearby. You are quite close to the main house so if you're looking for somewhere more private, may not be the place for you but they keep their blinds down and windows are tinted in the bedroom to compensate.
Would definitely go back. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!
