We had a fantastic long weekend at the property. It is well presented and very well equipped. Great location- quiet with views of the reserve and very close walking distance to the shop and lake. Very dog friendly and fully fenced. The communication with the hosts was very good and friendly. We would definitely stay again!

This was our second stay at this property. As last time, the bach is super-clean, warm and comfortable with everything you need for your stay. There's off-street parking, the area is nice and quiet and the cabin is perfect for our oldest teen. Such a pretty location, we love the lake front and wee marina. The corner shop has great takeaways and anything you need to top up on. Grant and Tarsha are lovely to deal with. We'll definitely be back!

We really enjoyed our 2 days here despite the cool weather. The kitchen was amazing and had lots of extras. The only negative is that there is no table although there is one folding one outside that can be used.

Fantastic holiday bach

We had the best time here - it was such a relaxing place to stay. Everything was clean and tidy and the facilities were modern and cosy. The deck was a dream with comfy couches and a beautiful view to the reserve below. So close to the lake and the Kinloch store. Will definitely come again.
