Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Angela, Ringwood 22 Apr 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities We were really looking forward to staying at this property over Easter and we were really disappointed for the amount we paid. The beds were very uncomfortable, there was no cover outside for our dog, no wifi, cobwebs in various rooms, one of the bins had rotten food in it and exterior doors had to be unlocked from the inside with the key, which posed a serious safety issue if there was a fire. I would not recommend this property for the price they charge, its not worth it. ##### Angela Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### mina b. 6 Jan 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Skenes Creek The property was perfect for our extended family of ten. Was hoping for good beach weather but other than the beach there were other things to do in the area. Loved watching the koala in the backyard ##### mina b.
