Just lovely to be able to stay so close to water. Great house, very easy & functional, worked really well for a family group of adults. Loved the way the house sleeping areas can be closed off from the living areas. Kitchen is excellent. Fireplace was very efficient - kept us toasty warm - it was quite cold & rainy while we were there. Thank you for having plenty of wood on hand. Charla's welcoming touches were much appreciated especially the fresh sourdough bread. Port Albert was very quiet, it's a great area for looking around. The Prom craft market in Foster was a nice day out. A very pretty area t spend time in. ##### Jan M. Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alicia S. 15 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A cosy house with everything you need! We had an amazing stay. It is very apparent all the hard work that goes into the little touches to make this house so delightful. Charla had left some beautiful treats to enjoy for afternoon tea, the fire was stacked and ready to light and a house compendium and brochures about the area gave us all the information needed. My favorite thing about this house was the gorgeous views across the water from the lounge room and deck, we all felt instantly relaxed. The kitchen is well equipped, beds new and finished with soft linen and the back yard big enough for a kick of the footy. We will definitely be back ! Thank-you for a wonderful stay. ##### Alicia S.

Pictures provided did not do the property or the beautiful surroundings justice, we were blown away by how amazing and homely our stay was. The host Charla and her husband were equally as amazing and so accommodating, they provided all the information we were after and more. Couldn't recommend this stay enough and can't wait to book another stay in the future. ##### Naomie E.

Although we booked this property with only a couple of days notice and Charla was not around we could not have had a better service. Charla was quick to respond to our request to book and a subsequent phone call ensured that all was ready for us on our arrival. Instructions were clear and accurate, a great help as we arrived in the dark! Charla was in constant touch to ensure that we had everything we needed and were happy with the property. The property was excellent and Charla had thought of everything so it was well equipped. The welcome box was a delight and the contents barely lasted the evening. ##### Oliver Y. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ann C. 22 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property Our family spent 4 nights at the Waterview Retreat and had a wonderful time.
