    Ann-Maree - June 2006
    Our group of four couples had a fabulous weekend in this beautiful house. The web photos do not do it justice. The kitchen was great for preparing feasts and the gardens and walks were fantastic. Thank you for a great long weekend - we will return!

    magnificent ,far exeeded my high expectations. There was plenty of room for 8 adults and 4 children for our family get-together. WE ARE ALREADY PLANNING OUR RETURN
    Karen - September 2005
    So little time, but so many wonderful memories created. A wonderful home and surrounding area. Just trying to keep it a secret so that not to many people find out about it. We hope to make many returns.
    Denise - September 2005
    Magnificent home and property.We felt like we were staying in a resort, yet with a warm wonderful feeling and very welcoming.
    The home is large and very well equipped for a large family or group of friends.
    Turtles Crossing has everything a perfect holiday for all ages....HEAVEN......
    Sue - April 2005
    Wonderful! Turtles Crossing had so much space for our party of 10, wonderful facilities, beautifully appointed, so peaceful & ideally located half-way between Sydney & Coffs Harbour for our family reunion/birthday celebration. Sunset drinks by the lake were a highlight, as were the snooker and tennis competitions. We've already booked our next visit.
    Cherelle - April 2005
    Never have I come across a place that comfortably accommodates 10 people. Not only did we all have a bed to sleep in but there was so much space it felt like we were staying in a palacial resort. It encouraged communal entertainment while offering an escape to get away and read a book quietly. Loved it and we have booked it again for December. It's the best self contained place we have stayed at in NSW.

    This was our second visit and certainly won't be our last. We had blissfully warm weather and the pool temperature was delightful to jump into after a game of tennis. The hammock & hanging chair in the gauzed courtyard would have to be my favourite places on earth...and the sound of the Whistling Kites in the trees above is a magical way to be lulled into an afternoon nap after an active day kayaking and playing tennis. The kitchen is a pleasure to work in, even when catering for a full house. We absolutely love it there and will be back as soon as we can.

    MAGNIFICENT!!! is the word that springs to mind. We thought we had
    arrived at the wrong place or maybe there was something around the back
    for us. Imaging our surprise and delight to find out that this was
    where we were staying. 4 families with children were comfortably
    settled for the weekend and even with the rain for 2 days we were able
    to find something to do without getting under one another's feet. It
    was a very relaxing weekend and we thank you for allowing us the
    pleasure of staying in your home. (We've all decided we are going to
    build one the same but don't know how they will fit on the average town
    block!) Hopefully we will get to stay again soon.

    Thank you
