Great for a one night stop.
A lovely place to stay, however a bit difficult to sleep as all the beds were rocky and bouncy. No sign of the swirlpool spa or hot tub described on the listing !

Wonderful 1950s bach - the real deal
Genuine 1950s bach, beautifully set up. Excellent communication with owner and easy key collection/return from service station down the road. Short walk/bike to lake for amazing swims. Dog and kid friendly. We loved every minute! Highly recommend and will be staying again. :)
