Lazy Lodge on Blanche—A Family Escape on the River

Embrace a waterfront haven perfect for families and groups. This two-level home boasts a private boat ramp and kayaks for exploring the scenic surrounds where the river meets the sea. Immerse yourself in the tranquillity of The Coorong as you get up close to wildlife, explore acclaimed wineries and surf beaches of the Fleurieu Peninsula, and delve into the charm of the Goolwa Wharf Precinct. Relax on the balcony to savour breathtaking views, and relish the full kitchen and dual living spaces.
This spacious sanctuary is all about relaxed coastal living, where the gentle sounds of the water set the scene for pure bliss. Designed to highlight its stunning locale, the green yard rolls straight down to the water's edge with a boat ramp—perfect for docking a small boat or setting off on an adventure with the provided kayaks.

Spread across two levels with central heating and cooling, the open-plan living and dining area on the upper floor spills onto a balcony where you can savour your morning coffee or unwind with an afternoon wine, watching the sky change hue overhead. The full kitchen makes it easy to whip up a feast, and the large dining table is just waiting for lively, shared meals. With two cosy lounge areas—one upstairs and one downstairs—you’ll have the perfect spots to curl up with a good book or host unforgettable movie nights.

The house offers four well-appointed bedrooms and wardrobe space for your belongings. Upstairs, the primary bedroom features a queen-sized bed and a full private ensuite, while a charming twin bedroom and convenient powder room complete the level. Downstairs, you'll find two more bedrooms, one with a comfy double bed with direct outdoor access, and another with a fun bunk bed setup that’s perfect for the kids. Need extra space for the little ones? A travel cot and highchair are available upon request. The main bathroom offers the choice of a relaxing soak in the tub or a quick shower, and the dedicated laundry room offers a washer and dryer combination, making longer stays a breeze.

Parking is available for two cars on the driveway.
Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo.

Please note a $100 charge applies for guests bringing pets.

Disappointing experience with MOULD
Less then 24 hrs before checkin, the agent (Hometime/Campfire Hospitality) sent a message to say "there was some water damage to the floorboards during a recent guest stay".We thought maybe it was just a dishwasher leak etc, and we couldn't find anywhere else at such short notice, so we decided to go. What the agent neglected to mention, was that the water damage is a result of an ongoing leak in the ceiling above. The ceiling has MOULD!!! If the agent had told us this, we would have cancelled immediately. Unfortunately, even without the mould, this property is not ideal. It can sleep 8, but it can't accommodate 8. There is no large entertainment space. Upstairs is small, with only 2 x 2 seater sofas. As a family of 5, we had to sit on dining chairs or filthy chairs from the deck to watch a movie together. We have stayed in multiple properties on Hindmarsh Island, over the past 15 years, and never had a problem before. On 13/1/25 the agent messaged "To acknowledge the inconvenience caused, we’d like to offer a partial refund." It is now 25/1/25, and despite multiple messages, the agent has NOT issued a partial refund.
