"What a fantastic place for a large group. It accommodated our 3 families with adult children perfectly and the pool table was a big hit for entertainment alternatives from river activities. The cool room was also a fantastic option and plenty of space for cars to park off road."

"Just WOW. Super impressive river shack! We absolutely loved this place—it felt so homely as soon as we arrived. The many entertainment areas were perfect for our group, and the layout was amazing. Downstairs had its own bedroom, lounge, kitchenette, and bathroom for convenience, while upstairs offered a spacious open plan living area and separate bedrooms. The property had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We had such a blast and will definitely be coming back for more peace and relaxation. Thank you for an amazing stay!""

"Thank you to the extraordinary Kel and Jas (Juggle House Experiences) for hosting us on an amazing 7 hours tour to the Dark Sky Reserve at Mannum. We truly appreciated your attention to detail and the extra lengths you went to to make us feel special - even down to the hot milo and choccies served on the cliff top. Thanks to South Aussie with Cosi for the generous gift of a weekends' respite. You will never know how much this was needed and appreciated. Kudos to Swan Reach Hotel for providing delicious food from your makeshift kitchen. You nourished us with good food and hospitality. To Elder Aunty Ivy. Your generosity, wisdom and compassion in sharing the story of your people was so special. We expect to see you in the next Fringe Festival. Joe and Lyn, your enthusiasm and knowledge of the skies is infectious. The clouds cleared for us at the perfect time. You unselfishly shared your passion and love for our solar system. And to David and Wendy at River Shack Rentals. Wow. Your house is everything and more. So comfortable. So beautiful. We have been thoroughly spoilt. We are so grateful.

Wongulla Heights

02/09/2024

"We found that Wongulla Heights was an ideal holiday location. Clean and well appointed, magnificent views and secluded. We enjoyed the wildlife with kangaroos coming right up to the house. The nights viewing the stars were highlights. A reasonable sized block with tracks for walking around revealed Wombat holes, but sadly we didn't see any. We found the wifi to be excellent with speeds of 100Mbps plus recorded and our Optus phones had 4G reception. By comparison when we went down to the river to go fishing we had no reception. The main reason we chose this place was for our little dog, it has a fully fenced yard. We would recommend this place and will use it again"

"Another amazing family winter getaway. Both houses had everything we needed. Couldn’t ask for a better location. We spent our time sipping wine by the campfire, kayaking, the kids set up volleyball nets on the lawn, card & board games…..just to name a few of the activities we did. Thank you River Shack Rental for another wonderful school/uni holiday getaway for our families. Everyone had the best time. Kids did however have one complaint ….that 3 nights was not long enough. We will definitely be back again"

103 Rob Loxton Road - January 2024

18/03/2024

"Our stay at 103 at Walkers in Walker Flat over the New Year period was wonderful, in fact exceding our expectations. The house has been beautifully renovated following the dreadful floods of 2022. So much thought and detail has gone into furnishing the home to make all future guest experiences both comfortable and memorable. Everyone slept well on the new beds, the ducted airconditioning upstairs and incredibly efficient split unit downstairs made everyones hot New Years day far more pleasant. All crockery, cutlery, cookware and glassware were in abundance ensuring our large family group were well catered for. For those wanting a luxurious stay whilst taking in the serenity that the Murray River offers I highly recommend this property. We will absoultely be returning again. "

"We loved our stay at 14 Randell Street. The house was beautifully presented and in a great location. It felt like we were actually on the river and we loved sitting on the pontoon watching the world float by. The view was spectacular. The house was also well stocked in terms of plates, cutlery and pots and pans. Thank you for a fabulous stay. We will be back."
