Lovely Spot
Lovely little spot overlooking the lake. Very clean and all the facilities you need. Ideal for the two of us but enough room and bedrooms to bring back the grandchildren another time.

Islander Escape is perfect for families, young and old.
The Islander Escape is located in a quiet street right on the lake. The property is clean and tidy and has everything you need, including kayaks. Away from busy Victor Harbor if you want some R&R with lake views. Great for young and old.

Islander Escape
Only stayed for a weekend but we wish we could have stayed longer. Modern home in a great location. Kayaks provided to take out on the lake. Host was accommodating with our travel schedule. Would certainly stay again.
