    A lodge worth staying at!!!!

    Absolutely stunning. Surrounded by native bush with the natural sounds of a river in the background. Well set up, with a covered deck to sit outside to appreciate mother nature at her best.

    I did have 1 issue, which I spoke to the owner about and was investiagted immediately. High five!!!
