Very close to the jetty - just a short walk (albeit uphill) to the bach. The views are lovely from the deck. Having access to a dingy and a buoy to attach to was great for fishing.

The communication and care from property owners was A+/above expectations. It is up a steep climb which was very slippery during our stay, but not an issue at all, part of the experience. We would love to come again, thanks Liz and Bruce. ##### Bex S. Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tricia G.

Despite some very patchy weather we had a great time – walking, kayaking, swimming, and just enjoying the glorious views from the deck. The house is spacious and well equipped, and the six of us had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The hosts went out of their way to help us, and their communication was excellent throughout. ##### Tricia G. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lachlan W.

Beautiful setting, with a great deck for BBQing, taking in the view and containing our girl. Complete with weka making their daily rounds! Easy stroll up the way to the lodge, not too bad even with the rain. Great lunch and coffee. Easy communication with our host - the detailed instructions and setup were perfect. ##### Lachlan W.

With lots of walks to do and nice being where you can bump into other people or not if you choose. A little walk up a hill to the house but great bit of fitness and a lovely view! Highly recommended this place and hosts. ##### sarah B. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Ben W.

The track to the house was fine to walk as it was dry weather. It is steep in sections and I wouldn’t want to tackle it in poorer weather. The house is older but well looked after and is a fair price for the condition as described. We used the mooring and it was easy to navigate with the dingy supplied. ##### Ben W.

The only comment with regards to taking your own boat is mooring is quite exposed in a Southerly wind just something to consider. ##### Adele K.

The owners' welcoming and communication had been great from the moment I've booked the bach. We have really enjoyed staying at this wonderful family bach, in the midst of isolated beauty of Endeavour Inlet. The walk to Resolution Bay from Endeavour Inlet's really scenic, a must do! Kudos the Endeavour Inlet's community trust people who worked hard to bring back more birds 🐦👍👏 we were literally followed by curious chirping piwakawakas as we walked along the track.
