A very enjoyable stay. The property was clean, well presented and well equipped. The yard was secure for our little dog, who equally enjoyed her holiday. We would be happy to visit again. The bottle of champagne was a welcome gesture!

Loved our stay
We really enjoyed our stay at Barwon Abode. The house was spotless, beautifully presented and well equipped. It's in a quiet area near the river and a good walk to the main street. It has a great layout and would suit two families easily. The yard was secure and our dog loved running around it. Would definitely recommend and would love to stay again.

Great dog friendly stay
Property was clean and as advertised. Enclosed yard for dogs, and polished concrete floors in living area great for dogs. Comfortable bed and couches, wifi and Netflix a bonus. Well equipped kitchen. Quiet location (except for the 7am wake-up from construction a couple of houses down, at no fault of this property owner) walking distance to a trail along the river. Owner was responsive to questions and check in was easy. Will definitely stay again if we are in the area.
