This property is close to the beautiful Wowly Creek. The house is comfortable and clean. Unfortunately the lounge furnishings need a thorough clean as there were mould spots on the leather lounge. Being a pet friendly house, the yard was a great space but at the time we stayed one side fence was under construction. Overall nice place in a nice quiet neighbourhood.

Improvements

Hoise in general is great. Some furnishings are getting tired and worn out. Towels when supplied need to include infants as well not just adults. Dishwasher may need repairs. Coffee machine should be checked by cleaners after each rental. Milk jug was growing
