HOME AWAY FROM HOME

This property was an ideal place to stay for us and our 2 small dogs. It had everything that we wanted and the beds were so comfortable. Would love to stay here again and would recommend it to others.

Great stay for families!

Property was bigger than we thought. Spacious and clean with all the usual amenities. Location was perfect for our young family. A short 10min drive to Geelong centre so we wouldn't be disturbed by the New year fireworks. Overall enjoyable stay!
