Set high on the hill you will enjoy privacy - just share the space with the birds and occasional visits of our wonderful Wildlife or the friendly chooks. You will hear the occasional speed boat down on the river but otherwise it is just the birds and Cicadas - I know it will be hard to endure but we think you will manage.

Quiet and tranquil in the tree tops

Australia Day weekend 2025. Me and my wife and our 2 Cavoodles stayed and enjoyed the house and the area. The house is in the tree tops. There are steep stairs to get to the front door but if you're able bodied won't be a problem. Rustic, tons of kitchenware and basic pantry staples. Huge deck overlooking the bush to your left and the river to your right. Would like to stay again.

Comfortable and peaceful. Great home away from home

My husband and I really enjoyed our quiet stay at little house. It was big enough for us and our two dogs and the deck area was amazing! We had breakfasts and dinners out there, enjoying the views. The home was clean and cute with a quirkiness that I loved! Check in and check out went smoothly with great detailed instructions so there was no confusion. We really appreciated how the hosts stayed in touch with us afterwards when we thought that we had left something there. We would definitely stay there again!

Change of location for school holidays

We came to stay here to get away from home for the holidays but where we could still work when necessary. It was a very relaxing time away with a lovely outlook and peaceful location. Walking distance to a fishing spot and the dog loved swimming in the river. Kitchen is well appointed, and the balcony is a great space for a workout, making lego or doing emails. A great spot for a family getaway!

Peaceful and cosy getaway

Beautiful little home on the hill. Peaceful and quiet area, surrounded by nature and amazing views. The house has everything you need, very well stocked and very comfortable. Close to walking tracks and Wisemans Ferry. My two dogs came along and enjoyed the big deck. It’s an extra little bonus allowing pets to stay as well. We will be back for sure! Loved it

Peaceful and picturesque stay

My partner and I had a lovely stay here. The house is set up high and looks out over the gorgeous view of the National Park and to the right, the Hawkesbury River. Large outdoor balcony for afternoon G&Ts. We came here in winter so the well stocked fire place was a perfect addition. We had no reception or internet access but was a great excuse to switch off from the world, there is Foxtel and board games, so no limit on entertainment.

relaxing weekend

The house is a good size and very quiet location. The views are amazing and its a short walk to the national park with walking trails. The only issue we had is that there was no reception or wifi at the property and we weren't aware of this. Had we been aware, we would have been able to plan better. Great communication with the owners. All in all, a good experience.

Little House on a Hill

The house location was as described, the interior was uncomfortable due to the decor and excessive clutter. It felt like staying in a deceased relative's house. Lots of old-fashioned objects, doilies, and clutter on every surface. In the kitchen, every cupboard and drawer was crammed with a mess of utensils, and the only place to store food was in the fridge, again, canisters, placemats, plastic boxes of cloths, ornaments on top of the microwave, and on every surface, from windowsills to every flat surface, vases of old silk flowers on the floor, old records. This was not a carefully curate collection, it had the feel of an op shop. This in turn did not create the ambiance of a relaxing holiday house. Credit should be given to the cleaners, as the place was really clean, and it is a big effort to clean and dust within a cluttered messy environment. We appreciated the chance to bring our dog with us, and the neighbors we spoke with were great people. With a good decluttering, the space could easily be inviting, calm, and relaxing. A shower curtain would also have been useful. The best aspect was sitting on the terrace watching the full moon rise, which was delightful.

Worst Stayz experience ever

I would like to say it’s a shame the pictures of the property on Stayz do not represent the actual condition of the house and garden now…false and misleading representation to unsuspecting people wanting a getaway for a weekend…to say I am disappointed at the cleanliness of this house is an understatement…this house is in need to a super deep clean and decluttering and major maintenance…it was raining over the weekend and the gutters were over flowing probably due to the gutters being backed with leaves..it’s actually quite sad how many things need to be done…kitchen bench tops stained with mould …ceiling fans are filthy…the filthy cloth on the chairs and the chairs themselves are very stained the table and table cloth covered in mould outside the lounge room on the balcony is utterly unacceptable…the larger awning has chairs with holes and tears in them…the power point held onto the wall with sticky tape..the downstairs outside balcony is just full of rubbish…the smell in the laundry and living areas when we came into the house was over powering and also the smell when you open the kitchen cupboards is super bad …from what I have read on previous pages in the visitors book it is an ongoing issue…the holes in the top balcony floor would definitely be a serious insurance claim if anyone was hurt…just putting a grate over it is not good enough…nails protruding from the balcony floor ..the tea towel left in the kitchen had the smell of being left in the washing machine to dry…bathroom towels were no better…glad I brought my own towels and tea towels the musty smell was overpowering..and the stairs to enter the premises are super dangerous as previously stated by the 87 year old a few pages back in the visitors book, the stairs are very challenging to use…it almost like by you not informing people of the stairs, when you arrive at your accommodation and are unable to climb the stairs you would you have to forgo the money you paid…I have Menieres which affects my hearing and my balance I could only make the trip up my husband has had heart surgery and had to do the trips up and down..front landing is unstable and the large rock near the landing is very loose..visitors book stating people paid for 3 nights and stayed one because of the condition of he house..my only wish is that people who had left reviews in the visitors back had written a review in stayz..I have taken photos to substantiate my review for anyone wanting to view them..

Everything was fine then the flood and power outage hit for the last two weeks of a 7 week stay. I had to evacuate the property in a tricky situation, leaving most of my things behind. The owner was excellent with her updates and communication.

just awesome

Can't talk this place up enough, it is a beautiful retreat by the river with a splendid view of both river and the hills. the little touches are all very special, wine, candles, coffee machine, milk frother, bbqs on the verandah, but it is also very homey and has so much character. we will be coming back. there is limited reception and no wifi - but you know what? don't bring your phone, it is really the perfect place to switch off!! did we mention dog friendly? be aware there are steep stairs to get up to the property, which was not an issue for us and again just added to the house on the hill experience. host is receptive and friendly.
