Great Stay on the Water
We had a great couple of days in this lovely house and rented a boat at the kiosk just up the road for a day out on the water. The place was beautiful and so well--built and appointed. We loved the place and the weekend.

Beautiful cottage in the bush and on the water
A beautiful little cottage with loads of character in a spectacular location. Jo was very welcoming and helpful. Kayaks on hand, bush trails and walking distance to kiosk, general store and restaurant. A beautiful place to return to if possible in the future.

Views and peace
This was a particularly lovely stay. My 92 year old mother found it easy to access the property with the inclinator. Beds were comfortable, location and waterfront views across the river were outstanding, tidy and clean. Very happy with our stay.

Perfect short break
The property was perfect in every way for our little escape from Sydney. So near and yet so far from the norm. We thoroughly enjoyed the kayaks and had a wonderful adventure on the river. Loved watching the seaplanes arriving. Dinner at Cottage Point Inn was a highlight. The local cafe was also brilliant.
The only suggestion is that the photos don’t do the cottage justice. It was so much more special. Thank you Jo

Cottage Point
Jo is very friendly and happy to answer any questions.
The cottage though small is immaculately presented with all mod cons, the beds are large and comfortable and the fold away came in handy as we where three siblings.
Only negative is the lack of dishwasher and the heat coming through the skylight in the kitchen however these in no way spoiled our stay and we will definitely be back.

The Cottage
Stunning waterfront location in a peaceful setting. From the moment we arrived we were greeted by friendly down to earth people. Jo was so kind and more than helpful when it came to showing us around. After parking the car in the under cover parking it’s a short and stunning ride down the inclinator which in itself is like a theme park ride with views you won’t find anywhere else. The cottage is decorated by lovely artwork and has a cozy homely feel.
Looking forward to staying again. 10/10
