Great Goolwa Getaway

We booked the Riverport Retreat with the intention of our kids sailing in Frostbite over the June long weekend. Unfortunately that was cancelled due to Blue-Green algae but we still went ahead with the weekend away. The house is great, very clean and tidy. Our kids loved their bedrooms and our dog was happy in the yard. It was a great location and would been perfect for Frost Bite. Hopefully we’ll stay there again. Thank you!

Immaculate and spacious home

Stayed over Easter and found this home so comfortable with a great vibe and everything you could possibly need on hand. Our host put on some really lovely extras such as a bottle of wine and we really appreciated the DVDs, games, books, as well as the well stocked pantry. A beautiful place to stay in handy to all the attractions. We loved the spa bath while our two little dogs enjoyed exploring the massive and beautifully manicured garden. Thank you Debra.

Well positioned, equipped and presented

Very welcoming and perfectly presented. Thoughtful and so everything you could need is available. Great spot close to a cafe for good coffee, etc, and an enjoyable stroll to Goolwa centre or the beach. Our dog enjoyed the large garden, and the veranda off the main bedroom was a calm spot to relax.

This home has it all. We could not have asked for more. Comfort, amenities, security, car parking. A very comfortable place to stay, and Debra could not have been any more helpful. We would definitely stay again.

Fantastic holiday house

We were instantly impressed with the high standard of this holiday house. The house itself is incredibly well equipped with plenty of kitchen tools and appliances. The bedrooms are spacious and beds very comfy. The owners have even thought of sensor night lights throughout the house to make it easier getting around in the dark. And the back garden was stunning. The huge manicured lawn was perfect for our dogs and kids. We all felt both pampered and at home instantly. This is a house that people will return to over and over. We loved it and definitely will be back

A stunning house with everything you need for a relaxing, comfortable stay

Such an immaculately presented, gorgeous light filled home surrounded by lovely gardens, all in a quiet peaceful location. Deb has thought of everything, right down to the eco friendly cleaning products and a great selection of games and books. A delightful accessible main bathroom made it easy for our family member with mobility issues. Just a few minutes walk from the river, Bombora Cafe and a wonderful playground, a pleasant stroll in to the main street and wharf and a few minutes drive to the Barrages to see the seals. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. We can’t wait to stay again.

Perfect Getaway

We enjoyed an amazing 5 nights at Riverport Retreat. The house is immaculately clean and has one of the most well stocked pantries that we’ve seen in holiday accommodation. Rooms are all spacious, well furnished, comfortable and the spa in the master is a real treat. Wifi works well and was fast and strong enough to work from. Our pup and 8 year old loved the large backyard to run in and heaps of space to relax and kick a ball around. Location wise, just a short walk to the golf club and to the river. Thank you for your hospitality and looking forward to staying again one day soon!
