Other Things To Note:
This is a quiet residential area and NOT a party house - we appreciate your help respecting our neighbours.

The canal edge is not fenced, which is important to consider if travelling with small children.

A pontoon is located in front of the house but is on a long-term lease and may not be available to use.
If you require pontoon access for a boat, please make an enquiry before booking. Use of a pontoon (if available) is charged separately – the rate is $50 per night
This is a peaceful place. Please be respectful of noise and our neighbours.
