Excellent small cabins (stayed in deluxe cannot speak for others). Very clean set in attractive gardens not far from Glenelg River. Lots of birdlife.

We had 5 days at Nelson to see the coast and the Glenelg river. The cabin was clean and comfortable and we loved being able to go for a walk and see all the local flora and fauna. Its a great place to stay if your into boating or even diving at the limestone caves of Picininnie ponds. Thoroughly recommend staying here.
