Relax on the decks & watch the world float by

Our modern floating eco-pod on the Murray River is designed as a stylish getaway for 2 people.

Whether it’s a romantic getaway or just because, this stunning floating house provides a perfect year-round escape. Summer is a great time to see the river come alive with kayaks active on weekends. Autumn and Spring are stunning, with warm days and cooler nights, ideal for the fire pit on the deck. Winter is a time to cosy up on the egg chairs with a glass of wine.

Amenities include a queen bed with electric blanket, reverse cycle airconditioning and fans, lounge with TV, and ensuite toilet and shower.

A bar table and stools on the undercover deck provide an ideal spot to enjoy a meal cooked on the BBQ, while the egg chairs and lounges are a favourite place to take in the views and activity on the River and enjoy a drink.

2 x single person kayaks with life jackets are provided for you to enjoy a paddle on the River.

Free parking is available for guests in front of The Cube.
