- "Greatest place on Kangaroo Island, a lot of wildlife around. The house is large, clean and modern, we really enjoyed our stay there." - "Fantastic location/view. Kangaroos right in front. Koalas spotted in the wild nearby." - "Stokes Bay, and thus the cabins, is isolated. Situated on the cliff face, looking north, one is surrounded by silence and peace, mixed with dozens of kangaroos and even some sheep. Nearby is the only restaurant, sadly open only till 5 pm; so bring your own food or consider a drive to Kingcote (sadly with roo-danger for the nightly return. We stayed three nights to have a holiday… make daytime excursions and enjoy evenings at the cabin. Highly recommended, but not if you expect action!"
