Newly furnished with modern decor and all the mod-cons you and your family might need, including HVAC air conditioning and heating system, Smart TV’s and WiFi.

The open plan living area that flows out onto the outdoor dining and BBQ area is perfect for those al fresco meals in the evening sun. In the summertime, watch the kids play safely within the gated area, swim or fish in the river or take advantage of the kayaks available with easy cycle access to \`Craters to the Moon\` cycle tracks and the river cycleway which is straight out the front gate. Walk down the path and onto the riverfront walkway and head down to Spa Park, Huka Falls, or into town - just an 8 minute walk to town.
