Tranquil stay on the Mary River

We recently stayed at River Oaks , a beautifully appointed house with rolling green lawns flowing down to the Mary River. The house had everything we needed for cooking and relaxing, books and games for our grandson to play.The lush lawns were ideal for doggie and child play while the ability to access the river straight out the back with our stand up paddle boards was an absolute bonus.We explored the stunning Kenilworth area by day and then returned to our peaceful lodgings to relax in the evenings.The back lawn was a perfect spot for afternoon drinks and nibbles.I would definitely recommend River Oaks and hope to stay again sometime.

Incredible

We had a spectacular 8 days at the property which felt like we were in a rainforest oasis that was so private and surrounded by luscious greenery and nature. We all swam in the river, fished, walked the property and interacted with the cows on the adjoining property. The kids played in the tree house while we sat on the veranda and were visited each night by 2 huge green tree frogs and could hear the possums in the trees. The location was close to the town where we went to the incredible Kenilworth Bakery and Dairy. The town has a great vibe. Down the road in the other direction is a quirky old style burger diner with lots of collectibles and amazing Pizzas it’s called Mrs Browns Diner. The host was available on a property next door if we needed and she was so wonderful. On our final day we got to explore her spectacular permaculture garden and we all learnt so much and got some samples to take home.

Very laid back few days

We stayed for 4 nights and had a most relaxing break. The house was spotless and had everything we needed including games, dvd's and books for entertainment. Situated about 3km from Kenilworth so you need a car to get around. Elin (host) was very helpful and informative. All in all a lovely time had by all including our dogs.

A lovely place to stay

We are long time friends who like to get together every few months with our dogs. The little cottage was lovely, very comfortable with great views & fabulous yard for our fur babies to run around in. Even though it rained we were able to snuggle up with a fire. So lovely to have somewhere so nice to share with our dogs. Thank You for making that possible.

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL COUNTRY ESCAPE!!!

From the minute we arrived we were very impressed with the beautiful house, garden, the paddock and also the beautiful views. The deck is amazing and everything was exactly as advertised. The hosts were lovely and friendly, and sent really good correspondence re travelling and how to locate the house. Also gave us tips on where to go that was dog friendly. The owner was extremely helpful when we booked the information and smooth transactions with payments. The furnishings were beautiful olde world style and the gorgeous bedspreads were so suitable for the house. The tranquility was amazing and so relaxing. The river is really lovely and the dogs had a great time running amok and they both had a swim. The fire pit was great and also the open fire in the house. The kitchen was beautiful and very well stocked.
