This house was very well equipped and we loved the fairy lights. Helen was a lovely host and rang before we got there to check if we had any questions. The location was amazing. Easy walk to the bakery every morning and to the pub for dinner plus Horseshoe Bay wasn't too far. 🙂 Also a great spot to base ourselves while we finished hiking the Wild South Coast Way.

    Goolwa has a lot of lovely old buildings in addition to the more modern ones. We attended a market near the waterfront which was great to attend. There were lots of good crafts on offer. We went onto Hindmarsh Island which gave a good view of the Murray river mouth. We also went to the barrage. It is accessible until 4.00. You can walk out accross the barrage and watch Pelicans and other birds feed off the fish that came through the barrage. There was also a few seals basking in the sun at the barrage lock. Most enjoyable.

    Goolwa is a lovely town with many old buildings dating back to the 1850’s and very well preserved. The Spirit of the Coorong boat trip is excellent. Great value and an amazing journey, captain and crew very knowledgeable. Interesting to find out how the Murray mouth is managed and the beautiful wildlife and vegetation that are protected. An insight into native Australian history including a welcome to country.

    Great little town with beautiful little historic stone cottages. Nice and quiet with some nice little shops and some great eateries including Mother Duck which we always visit and a Thai restaurant. Love the native birds where we stayed as well. Would have gone to the beach if we had more time. Close to other great little towns like Port Elliot and Middleton.

    Only a minute by car to Main Street . Takeaway foods and 2 pubs . Could walk if fit. Lots to see in local wharf area . Nearby drive to shopping mall . Stroll the little shops as you walk to wharf . Fish and chips excellent at nearest shop on the main road . Few nice shops for tourists to browse . An olde worlde feel to the town. It’s close to Victor Harbour for serious sightseeing /tourism . Visit Granite Island and see the draught horse drawn carriage . Plenty of street parking then walk to lunch , plenty of choices .

    Some limited high quality dinner dining, although the Thai is very good. Not far to drive to Victor but again limited excellent dining options. Loved Ninos. Plenty to do and see, and walk and relax. Convenient for grocery, chemist and most other retail requirements. Beauty spa if book ahead in high season. Cinema at VH but not 7 days. Historic and cultural experiences abound.

    Perfect little studio for our little family of three. Tidy and cute! Host met us and said hello, was very welcoming. We loved waking up and walking down the jetty. Very peaceful spot. Only feedback would be I think the bed base or mattress on the main bed could be upgraded. But overall we really loved our stay here, so much nicer than being in a hotel room somewhere. Very peaceful and pretty. Host even offered for us to use their kayaks but we ran out of time, if we had stayed longer than 2 night's we'd have used them for sure. :)

    This was definitely the best house I have experienced in the years I have been using Airbnb type accommodation. The location and the house itself were exceptional with a quiet yet handy location. The appliances in the house worked without exception including the dishwasher and washing machine. Definitely the most comfortable house I have ever rented and equal to my own home. One minor omission in the owner's handbook - an excellent Laotian cafe in Goolwa - The Garden of Nang - home-made, street food style menu. Is BYO.

    Lovely cottage in the heart of Goolwa. You are within walking distance of everything in the town, but this is hardly needed as everything conceivable was provided. There were nice little touches like fruit in a bowl and a range of breakfast cereals provided. We will definately be coming back.
