Riverbank Cottage - Waterfront

Nestled on the breathtaking banks of Sussex Inlet's waterways, this waterfront cottage is a dream come true for boating enthusiasts. It boasts a private jetty and boat mooring, making it a perfect haven for those who love life on the water. This modern home is beautifully furnished, offering stunning 180-degree water views. (Jetty is shared with Little River Tiny Home guests)

Conveniently, a flat walkway/bicycle pathway is right at your doorstep, inviting you for leisurely strolls or bike rides along the river's edge. The town is a mere few hundred meters away, easily accessible by foot or bike. Here, you'll find an array of dining options, Swordfish Brewery, cafes, the RSL club, a local cinema, shops, and an IGA grocery store. It's truly one of the finest waterfront locations in Sussex Inlet.

The possibilities for outdoor activities are boundless. You can enjoy fishing right from your private jetty, set out for boating adventures from your own backyard, explore the nearby parkland, go kayaking, swimming, or embark on scenic bike rides. Boating to the Haven is a heavenly experience with its clear blue waters and sandy bottoms, offering some of the most picturesque swimming spots. Alternatively, you can venture to The Basin, renowned for its fantastic fishing and water-skiing opportunities.

For beach lovers, Cudmirrah Beach is just a short drive away, offering excellent surf breaks at the North end, perfect for swimming and surfing. Berrara Beach & Lagoon is another gem, with its beautiful beach and a lagoon ideal for the little ones.

The cottage itself is a modern and exquisitely decorated home, filled with sunlight as it faces North. It features a fully equipped modern kitchen with a breakfast bar and a dishwasher. The dining room offers mesmerizing water views and seats six. The spacious lounge room seamlessly connects to the kitchen and dining area, providing excellent water views, comfortable lounges, a large television, DVD player, and a selection of movies and board games for your entertainment.

The main bedroom boasts a queen-sized bed and a TV/DVD, while the second bedroom includes a double bed and a single bed, along with a TV/DVD. The fully fenced yard is level and grassy, making it ideal for children to play safely. The house is equipped with air-conditioning for your comfort.

A boat ramp is conveniently located just 100 meters away, allowing you to leave your boat in the water while enjoying your holiday at our jetty.

As an added bonus, we provide 2 Cruiser Bikes, 4 Mountain Bikes, 2 Stand Up Paddle Boards, and 1 Kayak for your enjoyment. Additionally, all bed linen, bath towels, and basic pantry items are included. This waterfront cottage truly offers the best location on the RIVER.

We had a lovely break at Riverbank Cottage. The cottage has a lovely comfortable feel and the location is second to none. Having access to the private jetty was a great bonus.Easy flat walking access to clubs and shops. We were lucky enough to meet the delightful Dasha and her husband who were both very helpful.We would love a return stay.

2 Day break
When we arrived, property hadn't been cleaned and beds not made. The owner was unaware of this so an email to the owner soon sorted out the issue and the house was just as we had hoped. Dasha also let us leave a little later, so we were able to have another kayak paddle, being the last day of summer. A great location on the water and a well looked after house. Highly recommended.

Mix up
The property manager agreed for an early check-in but someone didn't tell the cleaners. Subsequently nothing had been cleaned by the time we arrived. Happily it was soon rectified. So too was a problem with the TV.

Charming cottage with an excellent kitchen
We loved our stay at Sussex Inlet. The cottage is exactly as described, very comfortable and well equipped. The location is beautiful with a lovely view. A bonus was the extensive collection of DVDs. The only negative was that the Wifi information provided was incorrect. And we were unable to contact the host, as the link provided through stayz didn't work. Not a major flaw, and otherwise I would give a rating of excellent.

Was not worth the money we paid
Towels had not been left out for us. No toilet paper, notified owner who said cleaner would come and deliver some, never arrived, we had to go buy some while son sat in toilet waiting for us to return. There were ment to be push bikes to ride, but none were in working order, very disappointed. Quilt covers were inside out. Kitchen was under equipment for cooking. No instructions on how to use tv and games or how.to operate the oven as the dial indicators had worn off completely. Shower door needs fixing. Great view and location.

Great value for such a superb location.Wonderful views and great set up, had just about everything for a comfortable stay. Relax or fish from your own jetty or ride the bikes or paddle boards. Enjoy the BBQ, walk to town for a meal or prepare something the the complete kitchen. Do as little or as much in this little piece of paradise.

Fantastic location
Dasha is a fantastic host who always replies quickly to any questions . The property is well kept and well stocked for all needs. Games, toiletries and all the staples u may need. Location is wonderful and the private jetty on the inlet is wonderful to fish from. Caught a couple of fatties and some bream right out the front. Would recommend this accommodation to anyone travelling to sussex inlet.

Lovely, relaxing cottage on the waterfront
We hugely enjoyed our stay at this property in Sussex Inlet - it is so convenient and a short walk away from the RSL, close to beaches in the area and really well equipped with all the essential items for a stay (and lots of kitchen equipment/tools which can sometime we a rarity!). Great fun having the kayak, paddleboards and bikes at the house as well. Thank you!

Charming spot right on the waterfront
A charming beach house, right on the water. Clean, comfortable and very relaxing. A big plus for us was all the fun stuff provided - paddle boards, bikes, scooter, chess board and loads of dvds and a wii. Made it to easy to keep the teens entertained.

November Basin fishing trip
Ideal location for a few days at the Basin chasing flathead unfortunately cut short by some pretty awful weather. The Cottage is comfortable and well stocked for everything you will need for such a trip although we couldn't connect to the wifi but hardly a big issue. If the property had a secure boat mooring it would have been ideal or even a power point to charge the electric motor on the boat as this would have save us pulling it from the water at night. Still a good trip and we would definitely come back to Riverbank Cottage as our base.
