Not our Accommodation.
Heather and I (+ The Cheeky Chihuahua Bothers) hat the best time. Shady Creek is a secluded self contained Cabin nicely appointed, with 2 bedrooms a large Kitchen / Dining / Lounge Room and bathroom. On the end of the second day we met up with Bruce, the owner and builder of this little bit of (dare I say it?) paradise. We had a great chat and learnt a lot about where we stayed. The creek and hill are great places to walk and relax. We will be back.
