"For us, traveling on a long electric vehicle road trip, the availability of onsite, undercover charging was a big advantage. Very comfortable bed. Comfortable settee was good to enjoy for our two night stay. Good dining options nearby — for example, a sunset dinner at the Wharf Bay and Restaurant, a pleasant stroll away beside the Richmond River."
