#### Well equiped family house
Great family and pet friendly setup. Loved the upstairs decking area where we were able to enjoy a bbq and meal outdoors. Kitchen is well setup too. Plenty of sleeping beds and space. The upstairs bathroom could do with an update renovation. Overall really enjoyed our stay at the house.

#### Perfect for little families
We had a great time at this property, a few minor issues with cleanliness, fridge not cooling, and shower - but after communication with the property manager, all issues were resolved. We stayed with 3 families, and it was perfect for adults and kids.
