    Not much negative to say as it was great, it would be nice to open up some more windows as it was hot inside on the first day but most of them were painted shut unfortunately.

    The shack was very cute and well set up. The property was gorgeous and Grant was very welcoming. The walking track that has been made through their own rainforest is beautiful and worth going for a walk. I enjoyed finding some of the picnic benches around the property to eat my dinner at and watch the view.

    Gavin was good enough to phone us at the time we made our booking for the Bush Shack to explain that it was a 2 room cottage with an open air area between the 2 rooms. We were ok with that but now in hindsight we felt that it was very overpriced. We didn’t realise how tiny the space was.

    Lovely quiet country setting, vegetable garden where I picked veggies for dinner Gavin was a good and friendly host and explained the surroundings very well.

    Absolutely nothing.

    Grant and Marieke are amazing hosts. Amazing view from our gorgeous rustic cabin. Absolutely loved being able to pick fresh vegetables from garden, coriander was amazing. A little of paradise off the beaten track, but very accessible. The creek walk on the property was so pretty, with such a huge range of trees.

    Our family of 4 loved our 2-night stay at Sassafras Springs. We were in the 3 bedroom "Summer Hill" house and it was more than enough space for us! It's a bright, comfortable, well-appointed cottage, and we felt right at home there. Grant met us as we drove up, gave us area info, and was available to answer questions if we had any - great host. The pond out back offered hours of peaceful entertainment as we waited and watched for the resident platypus. The property has a few great-looking hikes on offer, but we prioritized seeing the swimming creature. ;) Thanks Grant! We would stay again!!

    Not much…

    The garden with heaps of fresh produce to pick - you can help yourself, the location couldn’t be better - rural with bush and fields, the outside amenities - play rooms and areas for kids, peaceful retreats for adults, bush and area walks for all and nicely set out cabins.

    One of the best places I have stayed in a long time. Really isolated and peaceful, surrounded by nature, with an accessible patch of native forest on the property. Loads of birds and marsupials around. Great to have access to fresh eggs and a vegetable garden as well. I was travelling alone but would like to return with my family.
