What guests think
Travellers describe Moonwaters Holiday Cottage as a peaceful, pet-friendly retreat among karri trees with beautiful inlet views, easy access to walks and Denmark town, and a cosy, well-equipped cottage where feeding visiting birds and relaxing on the deck are highlights.
Many mention friendly, responsive hosts, reliable internet and Netflix, and a cosy wood fire, though a few reported fireplace or fan faults and a noisy fridge. Cleanliness is mixed, with several reports of dust, cobwebs, and worn or unclean cookware alongside others finding the home tidy. Interiors are rustic and can feel dark; overall, expect a tranquil, nature-focused stay with occasional maintenance or cleanliness quirks.

Lovely cottage with everything you need for a relaxing break. We enjoyed exploring the area and the walking track down to the inlet. Ample supply of firewood which we really appreciated.

Quiet retreat amongst the trees with plenty of birdlife and very friendly, tame parrots and magpies. The property had everything we needed and in the evenings was good to be able to get Netflix, given TV reception was otherwise poor. There were lots of easy walks not far away and was just great that it was pet friendly and the walking trails permitted dogs so they could come along too. Greens Pool snorkel was a highlight and an easy drive away.

Other than the initial issue with the wrong pin code for key box, the stay was enjoyable. Kitchen was fully equiped, which we made use of each night. Plenty of Tea and coffee available. Only had couple of issues on few cool nights. Glass on Wood Heater fallen down on day 3 and we couldnt use afterwards (reported to Owner). Cottage had backup Oil Heaters for the bedrooms we move to family room. Both units the oil heater warmed up, but no fan operationally to aid to curcular heat. Oh Bird seed Jar left in Family room. Had variety of birds come the morning and evening for a fed. Magpies get very close up even tap on the glass door for attention and feeding.. Being a pet friendly accommodation we had to keep our small dog in side when feeding birds. Im not a bird person but enjoyed these few occasions.

We had an amazing few days surrounded by gorgeous trees and birdlife. The magpies were so friendly that they ate out of our hands. The woodfire made cold evenings very cosy, and the piano was lots of fun, especially since we have no musical ability at all. We wish we could have stayed longer, and wouldn’t hesitate to book this cottage again.

2 stars for location and view. I would give 0 stars for cleanliness if I could. We are a couple in our 50s with three little house trained dogs that don't drop hair (1 Bichon and 2 Havanese). We booked this place as it allowed dogs and was in a nice location, and had good recent reviews. Cleanliness was mentioned in June by other reviewers. Apparently, this was going to be addressed. But clearly not. I have photos of the amount of thick dust and dirt. We arrived and there were many dirty/dusty cockroach baits and DampRid containers in every room. Not very dog safe! I have asthma and allergies, which have been greatly affected by the dirt and dust. Bar heaters in the main living looked like they were pulled out of a dirty garage after years and not cleaned. Ceiling fans putrid. The amount of dirt and dust under the main bed was repulsive. Wardrobe in main bedroom unusable as full of dirty, old vacuum cleaner, old outdoor furniture and dirty old DampRid containers. Kitchen cutlery and plates were old. One plate was cracked. Dirty wine glass and pot. This place has obviously not had a proper clean in years. I think a bare minimum in "cleaning" is done between visitors. New sheets/quick vacuum etc, but I dont think the owner has personally inspected this property in years. If so, they surely could not be happy with the standard of cleanliness. Fan in bathroom doesn't work. We have stayed in other places with our dogs, but never this disgusting.

The property was dark & dinjy. There was inadequate lighting. One of the bedside lamps didn't work. There were no teatowels & only 3 coffee mugs for 4 people. The outside area was strewn with leaves & debris. The cottage did not live up to the photographs or description. Was very disappointed. Would not recommend Moonwater.

Views were spectacular and nice to walk down to the water. Quite windy while here but that's to be expected with the arvo seabreeze. Was nice to see and hear the different species of birds visiting the verandah. House was clean and tidy. (Piano was out of tune) The only thing we had misgivings about were the dishes and pans. We pulled out a pan to cook and it hadn't been cleaned, was greasy with bits of dirt. There were a couple of bowls of the same consistency - not all, but we checked everything we used after that.

We had a lovely 3 nights here, the location is beautiful, the photos don’t do it justice - the balcony and view was great. Dated furniture/basic amenities but that’s what you expect for the price, and it was perfectly comfy. Good internet and smart TV. An easy 5 min drive into town, nice and private from neighbours. The shower water pressure was amazing - at 7mo pregnant I thought I’d want lots of baths but the bath is teeny tiny, the amazing shower absolutely made up for that haha. We would definitely stay here again. Some simple suggestions for the owners to consider: — providing a hair dryer — providing a floor lamp that could be used to read on the couch in the evening/extend over the table to do a puzzle at night - the overhead lights are quite bright — pop a power board or extension cord on both sides of main bedroom bed for a couple to each charge their phones! — salt and pepper grinders! Many coughing fits from ground white pepper haha

Roomy accommodation in a very quiet and peaceful area of Denmark. The outlook from the deck across Wilson Inlet was superb with an amazing symphony of birdsong morning and evening. The accommodation itself is very roomy and rustic although some aspects a little tired. Overall good value for money compared to most other propoerties we looked and especially appreciated it being a dog friendly property so we could bring our fur baby with us. She really appreciated the bush setting and outlook too.

Moonwaters is in a beautiful setting near the inlet but also conveniently located for visiting the town. The cottage is well provisioned with all the basics you may need, the beds are comfortable and the shower has great water pressure! If the weather is not so great there’s comfortable couches and a big TV but we spent most of our time sitting on the deck relaxing and watching the birds come and go. So peaceful. That we booked to return in 6 months time before we left, should reflect how much we loved being at Moonwaters.

That we booked to return in 6 months time before we left, should reflect how much we loved being at Moonwaters.

House and location was perfect, beautiful view from the balcony, amenities were great. added bonus of bird seed to feed the birds. Location was amazing easy access to the river walk trail, and short drive to town and all attractions. We had a wonderful time thank you. suggestion perhaps a Nespresso machine for people to BYO coffee and use. Thanks again

Tranquil location surrounded by forest with views to the inlet, you can’t ask for much more than that. At the same time only 5 minutes from town. Great place to stay and our second time in this property now. Will be back for a thord

Wonderful location. Close to inlet and great walking and bike trails. Cottage is rustic with a great deck where parrots and other birds make a stop. Lots of breakfasts outside when weather is warm. Amazing views of the inlet.

Such a cozy cottage with gorgeous views. The house was well equipped with everything you need. Just add food and relax! Loved the walk through the trees down to the inlet. Very nice getaway. 👌

Had a lovely time, the view is great, comfy beds and warm log fire. We were able to cook all our meals in the fully equipped kitchen. Would love to stay again.

Moonwaters is in a beautiful setting near the inlet but also conveniently located for visiting the town. The cottage is well provisioned with all the basics you may need, the beds are comfortable and the shower has great water pressure! If the weather is not so great there’s comfortable couches and a big TV but we spent most of our time sitting on the deck relaxing and watching the birds come and go. So peaceful.

The property was dark & dinjy. There was inadequate lighting. One of the bedside lamps didn't work. There were no teatowels & only 3 coffee mugs for 4 people. The outside area was strewn with leaves & debris. The cottage did not live up to the photographs or description. Was very disappointed. Would not recommend Moonwater.

Views were spectacular and nice to walk down to the water. Quite windy while here but that's to be expected with the arvo seabreeze. Was nice to see and hear the different species of birds visiting the verandah. House was clean and tidy. (Piano was out of tune) The only thing we had misgivings about were the dishes and pans. We pulled out a pan to cook and it hadn't been cleaned, was greasy with bits of dirt. There were a couple of bowls of the same consistency - not all, but we checked everything we used after that.

Had a great stay with our furry family member. The view is sensational, awesome amongst the tall trees. So peaceful. The wood fire kept the house & us nice & toasty.

Entry and house keys a jumbled mess on keyring. Lack of Lighting on front verandah makes it almost impossible to enter key code. Middle of winter, no wood supplied for indoor potbelly fire. (Two old electric heaters which were totally inadequate to heat open plan living area ). Bedroom 1. Electric blanket not working on one side, bedside lamp light flickering on and off. Mould on ceiling in bathroom. Microwave broken (turntable not rotating) Lighting so dim inside you couldn't even see to read. This problem has been mentioned in other reviews of this property ! No cleaning cloths for washing,wiping down surfaces. No instructions for operation of TV and other appliances Compendium filled with outdated information and rubbish. Etcetera. Amenities listed: Hot tub? Manager Christophe was rude and abusive when asked for a trades person to check and repair dodgy electrical appliances and supply wood for stove as stated in the contract. Electrician told us not to use microwave because broken and dangerous. Ditto for bed lamp. Was able to fix electric blanket and he replaced ceiling light bulbs in open living area. No wheelbarrow supplied to transport wood from woodshed to front verandah. Metal wood box situated to the side and behind woodstove very dangerous to have to reach over hot pot belly stove to reach wood for fire. Would NOT recommend this property to anyone. Definately not value for money. The Manager Christophe very rude and abusive. regards Gaye
