It's only a short stroll down to the river, Matty's Flat boat ramp and jetty where you can try a spot offishing, while watching the kids enjoy
the playground nearby. Walk or cycle alongside the riverbank, taking in the local wildlife, or venture a little further onto the popular walk along the break wall.Or just relax, watching the sunsets whilst enjoying a drink, lunch or dinner at the Riverside Tavern.
It's only a 5 minute drive into the centre of South West Rocks with local cafes, restaurants, loads of shopping opportunities and popular swimming locations including Back Creek and main beaches.
Both the Surf Club and Country Club offer a Courtesy Bus service for pick up and drop off.
Access to Geckos is from Dilberang Close as this unit is located downstairs from the main residence.

Good Stay
Clean, comfortable, quiet unit, suitable for two oldies like us. Bit too far from town and water, but otherwise would recommend staying here.

Close to nature at geckos
We had a very enjoyable time. Lovely decor, very clean and everything you need. Situated in a residential area but close to the river for fishing, boating and walking, also near to the River Tavern. We had a lovely meal there.

Nice spot near the tavern
We stayed for a few weeks and was very comfortable, The main bedroom is a good size, the only negative was no wifi and hardly any phone service. Overall was a great stay.
