Relaxing at River Rest
We enjoyed a really special weekend in Waikerie to connect with our extended family. River Rest was perfectly positioned to access all the locations where we wanted to gather, visit & enjoy. The home was comfortable, well appointed with all the essentials we needed. Beautifully restored & decorated. Plenty of room for 5 adults, great yard & outdoor eating/entertainment area. River Rest was well enjoyed all weekend, we loved it!

👍 River Rest
Good location, comfortable, light filled older house on large well fenced block (very secure for dogs and kids). Furniture is mostly modern with a few nice vintage pieces. Nice linen and towels. Thoughtful extras for children (games, toys). Highly recommend a visit to Waikerie Bakery and the very dog friendly balcony and dining area at the pub.

We really enjoyed our stay here and the host was very helpful and thoughtful. Arrived late with lights left on and Air con and Fans running which was appreciated. Its a great place if you have a boat as straight drive thru property so no reversing needed. Everything was clean and fresh. Will be back. Thanks 😊
