About this property
Spectacular lake, river scenescape views Oregon cabin style home
Country River Retreat is a refurbished Oregon style cabin overlooking the spectacular river Murray and Lake Carlet. Our country river retreat sits on 150 acres of land surrounded by sweeping farmland crops. Our choice is the reestablishment of native trees coupled with fruit, nut trees and a vegie garden promoting well being. The cabin is compact comfortable and quirky making it enjoyable throughout the year. Whether your party is here for simple rest and recreation or group art painting, group book readings to Yoga and or blissful meditation. Not forgetting the Celestial enthusiasts as one would feel like they are in the middle of the universe. The outer spaces of the cabin holds entertainment nooks including a decked Weber barbeque and pizza oven space overlooking the majestic river Murray and lake. On the grassed area is a stunning mid sized heated spa with ice box for that special occasion.
A all welcome shed with pool table is shared with the lower home retreat in which we manage. Please check prior booking on availability of pool room shed.
The home is not a riverfront establishment, however we we feel it is far more special with room to move. We sit only meters from the waters edge with bonus space available on the waters edge which is gated, as we share this special pace with our farming neighbor, having the luxury of domestic power on the rivers edge. This holiday retreat is in the town of Young husband only 15 minutes from Historic Mannum. Only 5 minutes from the retreat is a large council boat ramp with services. Without exception truly an eyeopener for those that want to engage in river sports, simple kayaking in the lake itself or on retreat enjoying yourself.

Very well appointed, clean and tidy, my small dogs were welcomed and secure and the location to the heart of town is perfect. Hopefully the same place is available for all my future visits to Loxton to visit my family. Thanks Chris and Phil, it was a great stay and I look forward to staying with you again in the future!
