Great location
We all enjoyed what the holiday house had to offer. Close to the water edge - for boating was an added bonus. This home is a comfort home with basic styling.

10/10 stay, actually a nice clean place
When we arrived we didn’t realise how big the block was, perfect for a small boat and suv/4wd to drive in and turn around, was happy with it straight away, after 3 days I’ve gotta say I’ll be coming back and I’ll be recommending plough cottage to friends and family, great neighbours and atmosphere, so close to the water and boat ramp. Bruce is a great bloke and made the check in easy as. Everything you need there apart from sheets for the beds really.
