We stayed here based on it's location and the Tripadvisor reviews. We loved it! The location is so serene and kangaroos are abundant in the evenings. We fed some of the wild Roos with Graeme and Kathy at the Homestead and some were semi-tamed. Genie the Kestrel was awesome to watch getting food from Graeme's fingers. The cabin was well... More

We were a bit nervous on our approach to the Homestead, as the dirt roads are quite an experience once you get off the sealed highway, however after a short turn into the approach lane to the cabin, we were very pleased with our choice of accommodation on Kangaroo Island. Central for all touring (ten minutes to Seal Bay, 15... More

Eleanor river homestead is a beautiful cabin situated in an amazing location. Anytime of the year. All season bring different feels and stunning visual scenery.

The owners are more than accommodating and have never meet nicer people,... More

Eleanor River Homestead is a big find!! It was one of the highlights of our trip to Australia and we would have stayed much longer if we had known how special it would be.

We were looking for a secluded, peaceful hideaway on beautiful Kangaroo Island. Eleanor River offered everything we were looking for and then some! Wonderful hosts, luxury accommodation, amazing scenery, the opportunity to get up close with wildlife and a well deserved break from our hectic lives! Highly recommended...... we will definitely be back!!!

The surroundings are just breathtaking with lots of beautiful yacca palms everywhere. It is very central located at the middle of the island with easy access to all attractions - and a... More
