My husband, Paul and I fell in love with this beautiful little community while playing on the local waterways in our younger days. A few years ago, we were fortunate enough to move into Cottage Point, and while living within a National Park was a challenge to begin with, it did not take us long to slip into our new lifestyle and embrace this little piece of paradise.

Our boathouse — The Deckhouse, Cottage Point, was opened up for holidaymakers, soon after our arrival and has been loved and enjoyed by many as a place for romantic getaways, surprise marriage proposals, baby moons, birthday celebrations, anniversaries and many longer stays with guests arriving from all over the world to visit our magnificent city, yet choose to stay on the outskirts of the city center by the water's edge.

We hope you also get the chance to spend some time in this gorgeous part of the world, waking up to the sweet sounds of morning birds, spotting local wildlife, and taking in the constantly shifting scenery.
