We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on the canals at Port Macquarie. The house was clean and comfortable. We loved having access to the jetty, the kayaks and the bikes. It was a very convenient location and we were able to walk to a great pub, the shops and even the main park for NYE fireworks. Everyone had a great time.

This property suited our needs perfectly. The location on the canal was very relaxing and it was lovely to eat outside overlooking the water. We did not have the hustle and bustle of being in the centre of town but were not too far away either. The use of the kayaks and bikes was an added bonus. Would recommend for families.

Property is very well presented, easy access to shops and the river, had runabout parked at the jetty for easy access for the week - great to have access through the garage, keeps fishing gear and kit out of the house.
