Unplug and unwind
Amazing little tiny home, we stayed at 'the rapids' and would highly recommend this particular cabin due to its view and proximity to the river. Cabin is almost completely off grid but thanks to modern amenities like air-conditioning we were always confortable. Would return again just to unwind and unplug.

Wonderful
Stood down by the river after i arrived and laughed out loud, so overjoyed to be there, couldnt quite belive how good it was. The roads look a bit rough but my minivan had no problems. Lots of wildlife, fast flowing stream, complete privacy and solitude.

A Beautiful Escape
From the grazing cows, loitering wombats and picturesque river, the tiny home was an amazing and much needed escape from our daily lives. Well equipped and secluded it is definately a must visit! We would like to thank Kodie for his amazing hospitality and ease of communication which made the stay a whole lot better.

Perfect Escape
Swimming in the freshwater stream, ducked into a very nice lunch at Eschalot in Berrima, great walk through the national park and a nice red around the camp fire - perfect little getaway from the hussle and bussle. Highly rate this as a mini-cabin adventure. Facilities were perfect and clean.

Just what the doctor ordered
I came to the tiny house to have a bit of me time, commune with nature in a comfortable setting. My stay certainly provided that. The house is set by a beautiful river in a quiet valley in the Southern Highlands. I found the house ok and managed to navigate the country roads in my little 2wd. The tiny house was certainly snug but did contain everything I needed. I enjoyed unplugging from technology and spending time reading, watching the river flow by through the big windows, cooking simple meals in the kitchen and taking walks on the property. Stock up before heading out because once you get there you probably wouldn't want to leave.

Absolute perfection
The photos don’t do this place justice. It is like a postcard. We woke up to kangaroos and wombats everyday. The tiny house itself is so clean and funky. We will be back.

Surpassed expectations in every way
Right from the moment we arrived late at night and were lost, we experienced the incredible, friendly customer service of two staff who came out in the dark and drove us to the door of the property, with no frustration whatsoever. The tiny house itself was beyond incredible. We were so close to the river we could literally hear it from inside the house and the view out the big window was magical. Totally secluded, no other houses or people in sight, and a gorgeous fire pit we enjoyed both nights despite the rain. My partner, who was a commercial cook, was stunned by the incredibly high quality of the kitchen appliances with top of the line knives, pots etc. One of the most memorable weekends we could have had.
