We were on a road trip to the snow and sadly arrived late both times to appreciate our surroundings. We appreciate the phone calls months ago as we had booked two nights one week apart that would have looked like a booking mistake on our behalf so thank you all for making sure we had booked both dates.

Great location, easy walk to coffee at the Anchorage out the backdoor (fire trail). The backyard pool and hot tub area was well used by the entire family. It's a large house, we had 15 people (8 children and 7 Adults). Plenty of space. The dishwasher was handy and well used. Air-conditioner was fantastic worked a treat and highly customisable. 4 toilets and 3 bathrooms was great for the number of people we had. There is also a hot n cold shower outside near the Hot tub.

    We really enjoyed our stay at Halifax for Australia Day long weekend. We stayed in the cabins which were clean, tidy and comfortable. We enjoyed having private beach access that was not busy. We bought our bikes with and were able to ride to the foreshore easily, a short walk to go Snorkeling at fly point which was good fun. We were really impressed with the corner cafe’s fish and chips.
