Great. Although dog friendly the fencing is inadequate to contain most dogs. Ours could have slipped through and larger dogs would not have to great escapologist.

Cute Waterfront Cottage
My partner and I had a lovely stay here with our old dog. It's a great location for walking along the waterfront. There was only one wine glass and no champagne flutes but hopefully this will be rectified.

Great stay at Pelican Cottage in Goolwa
An excellent location and property for a relaxing and easy going holiday. Great views and a really well equipped accommodation. We spent time together as a family and 'getting into town' to go shopping or get a coffee was too easy. A great spot.
