Summit house weekend
The property was warm and comfortable on a very wet and cold weekend. We had a water leak in the back bathroom over the toilet. Also the driveway side gardens could do with a little attention as it was quite difficult to get in and out of the car due to the overgrowth, especially as it was raining and everything was wet. Easier to park on the street when there is a couple of cars.

Disappointed with this property
Pros- Comfortable bed, clean bedding & towels. Bathrooms & kitchen fittings as photos. Bedrooms as photos. Walking distance to Echo Point & Three Sisters. Cons- Dark & chilly when entering property. Hall, living room, dining room & sunroom darker than photos show- some windows obscured, guessed it was to block out view of neighbouring property and many dustbins/rubbish(rubbish on street from neighbouring property too). Condition of some areas of the property do not indicate being newly renovated(photos available), peeling & dirty interior paintwork on doors, frames and windows. No garden furniture.

Spacious and Comfortable Blue Mountains Retreat
We recently stayed at this beautiful house. The house was perfect for our family of eight - there were four bedrooms and two bathrooms, so everyone had plenty of space. The house itself is a bit old, but the kitchen and bathrooms were recently remodeled and looked great. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed to cook meals, and the kids loved the selection of books and games in the house. One thing to be aware of is that the driveway is quite tight, so it was a bit challenging to maneuver our rental car (a Kia Carnival) into the space. Overall, though, we had a wonderful time at the house and would definitely stay there again.

Great Place to relax with all the creature comforts you need.
This is my first use of the Stayz application, and I found it all its advertised to be. My host Pauline was in contact all of the time making sure that our arrival & check in was all in place. The place turned out exactly like the advert that first attracted me to book it. Great weekend with the family.

Take your car
Our host was gracious. The house was spotlessly clean and renovated. The location of this house requires a car, without which it would be difficult to sightsee and get to restaurants,etc. The roof in the rear bathroom was leaking. The shower in that bathroom leaked water onto the tiles, and the shower head kept sliding down. The house is quite dark and we felt that the living rooms couldn’t accommodate as many as the house can sleep.

This property was great. I took my 13 year old son and a couple of his friends up the Mountains by train. This house was near my friend’s place, so we could catch up while the young people played together and walkable from the station, so perfect location for us.

Good location...
Good location to access all that Katoomba has to offer, plenty of space to spread out, comfy beds , central heating. The only negative thing was the lack of a few things in the kitchen. It would’ve been nice to have a colander to drain pasta, the saucepans especially were dirty, rusty and pretty much unusable and only one rubbish bag was provided. Also supplying cling wrap and paper towel, which I bought and left there. Simple fixes so overall a great place for an extended family visit.
