Well set out and clean cabin with all that was needed for our stay. Not too far to drive to Hobart CBD. Easy walk to hotel next door for a meal if not in CBD. Helpful staff.

It was a wonderful family stay! We were so welcomed by the staff and it felt just like home. The kids had an absolute ball. Plenty of bbq areas around the place and cheap washing and drying options.

Nice easy stop over with ample parking. Kids liked the play equipment and just a short trip down the road to the airport for the early morning drop off the next day
