We stayed a couple of nights at the Coachman. It's a small and friendly place - the owner, Rick is a friendly guy who's happy to help out. It's off the main highway so a very quiet location while still close to the local RSL and other amenities, the lake is a short walk away and a brief drive will... More

Great value with this small motel off the main highway- very clean, quiet, with kitchenette and outside deck area- however small tv and small bathroom - other than that a great option if you are travelling through the area and need a bed for the night

We are locals who had reason to stay just one night at The Coachman, then leave early-ish to travel north. I think this this small business is a gem. The number of rooms (think it is 7) means there is a personal touch right from the minute you walk in the entry way to the informal front desk. Rick the... More

This is an older style motel/hotel, and so if you are looking for a luxury 5 star resort, then this is not it. But this place is in a VERY QUIET location, and the rooms have everything that you could ever need in a hotel. Full sized cook top with almost a complete kitchen. Pots pans electric jug etc. Iron...

This is a very nice clean inn with good facilities. The hosts were very welcoming. Comfy bed, off road parking and very quiet. Bathroom is on the small side but OK for 1/2 nights.

Quiet location a short walk from the lake's jetty. Cosy, clean room with a gentle rustic feel. Rick (the owner) and his wife made us feel like we're visiting friends. Have no reservation recommending them!!

Thank you for staying with us and taking the time to write your review, We are so glad that you enjoyed your time with us and do tend to agree with you, the Queen room is really better suited to a couple who are staying for an extended weekend, our Boutique double rooms are smaller, but they are priced accordingly....
