"This place absolutely blew us away. Came to celebrate a few days for our anniversary and was not disappointed. I have been fortunate enough to stay in quite a few Airbnb’s and this has surpassed them all easily. It would be really difficult to find a place with better surrounds. Daily visits from the friendly kangaroos one of few highlights. Sue was a great host and provided all the information we needed. Would highly recommend this place."

Jim, Middle River, August 2024

"We had a wonderful stay in this house, the photos do not do it justice, amazing views, amazing house and the wildlife wow! We stayed for 2 nights but could have stayed for 2 weeks the island has so much to offer. This was the perfect place for our family reunion and our overseas family was blown away with how beautiful Kangaroo Island is."

Kim, Middle River, August 2024

"Beautiful house with beautiful views, well equipped kitchen, very comfortable beds, good shower pressure, really beautiful, secluded, natural setting with truely spectacular views. Lots of wildlife, kangaroos and wallabies, resident scarlet robin. When the ferry cancelled at last moment due to rough seas we easily secured and extra night. Always very responsive and communicative."

Simon, Dudley Peninsula, July 2024

"First impressions amaze balls view, like it could have been a movie, rolling green pastures, friendly kangaroos, manicured lawns. The home was spacious, centrally located fireplace that warmed the whole house, plentiful firewood, well equipped kitchen, views from every window, except for the attic bedrooms, but the upstairs bathroom view more than makes up for that. Definitely a place We would like to return to and would recommend to family and friends. Thank you Sue for a lovely stay and excellent communication."

Jewel, Middle River, July 2024

"Sue and Andy’s place at Cuttlefish Bay is wonderful. It has the most amazing view and has anything and everything you could possibly need for a home away from home. Sue was lovely to communicate with, she provided great and detailed local information and was helpful and proactive with communication about ferries when we experienced some rough weather!"

Alana, Dudley Peninsula, July 2024

"Our stay was 11/10. Best day on KI was when we stayed put at the house. Made pancakes, put on our gumboots and explored the property, watched the rain through huge windows, had a lavender bath, fed the friendly roos, read books and toasted marshmallows in front of the fire. Sue was amazing - even helped to source a portacot for us to use at a separate listing. Thank you so much. If you can - stay a few nights here and then a few nights at their property on other side of island."

Sarah, Middle River, June 2024

"Incredible spot. Breathtaking views and felt really all alone in the world except for the occasional barge. Super clean house and exceptionally stocked kitchen. Snug day bed was divine. Thanks so much for having us!"

Alice, Dudley Peninsula, June 2024

“ABSOLUTELY MAGICAL! My advice is grab enough groceries for your entire stay because you will absolutely not want to leave the property, it’s stunning!”

Drue, Middle River, May 2024

“Beautiful location, lots of wildlife, gorgeous house!”

Owen, Dudley Peninsula, May 2024

“Magical, wonderful place. I felt honoured to look after it for a week. Excellent facilities, kitchen was the best stocked (utensils, pantry, saucepans, pans etc etc.) of anywhere I have ever stayed, and I’ve stayed in a lot. It’s EXACTLY what the photos show. Perfection and great wildlife - THANKYOU Sue and Andy!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️”

Sally, Middle River, May 2024

“Absolutely amazing view!! And fabulous house - wish I actually lived there 😊. Close drive from ferry. Wonderful hosts, were so helpful with places to eat, visit, buy supplies, etc & a welcome gift of local honey - yum!”

Laurie, Dudley Peninsula, May 2024

“Fabulous place. Incredible, uninterrupted ocean views, kangaroos came right to the door and were gentle and friendly. House was beautifully furnished and very comfortable. Sue was an extremely pleasant and helpful host when we needed assistance.”

Louise, Middle River, May 2024

“This place was awesome. The view is next level and the place is just incredibly peaceful. Loved walking around nearby and the proximity to the beach and town, and again, the view and the serenity it brings is excellent. We stayed as two families with kids from 6-11 and three adults. There was plenty of space to stack the kids away (the bunk bed room was a huge hit) and they all loved walking around the property looking g for wildlife. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking and everything well labeled and easy to use. If anything, the pictures don’t do justice to how immense the view is.:

Bob, Dudley Peninsula, April 2024

“We loved our stay! Absolute perfect balance of everything. Million dollar views in multiple directions, an abundance of wildlife. Ample, beautiful, outdoor area to play or relax, including swinging seats and outdoor dining and a BBQ. Spacious yet cosy and welcoming home, set up to walk in and entertain. Plenty of everything, we were very comfortable and would love to come again. The hosts were very helpful and lovely. Thank you!”

Catherine, Middle River, April 2024

“Amazing place to say. Beautiful views, loved the wildlife in front of the house. Enjoyed the fire pits, amazing decor, functional kitchen, comfortable beds. We loved exploring the area. Cellar doors just down the road, Penneshaw cute village with all you need. Thanks Sue for a lovely stay!”

Alisa, Dudley Peninsula, April 2024

“Sue’s Grass Tree House in Middle River was perfection. Private, with incredible views inside and out. We were drawn outside and spent most of our time enjoying the beautifully kept lawn with the rolling hills and ocean as the backdrop. Inside the home we enjoyed the rustic charms along with the wood burning fireplace. We spent our days here, inside and out, in Awe. The rooms were spotless, the beds were comfy and the pantry was stocked. Sue was always responsive. You can’t get a better host. We loved our stay and will definitely be back.”

Deana, Middle River, April 2024

“As soon as we arrived at the property we were in absolute awe of the ocean views and the beautiful grounds. It’s a scenic piece of paradise. The home itself felt rustic, yet had a grand vibe. The attention to detail in the decor was so beautifully interesting. The home was spotless and provided more than everything we needed. We truly enjoyed every moment here and definitely plan to come back. Honestly, words and photos just don’t do justice to the magic place that is the Grass House at Middle River. And, as far as hosts go, you can’t get better than Sue -friendly, Great communication, and always responsive”

Deana, Middle River, April 2024

“This is quite possibly my new favourite place in KI. A perfect spot to take our visitors from overseas with Kangaroos literally on the doorstep each morning and evening. A beautiful and well appointed place in magical surroundings. I would highly recommend this stay and will be back next time we visit KI. Thanks so much Sue and Andrew for sharing your place and being wonderful hosts.”

Nikki, Middle River, April 2024

“Just the two of us on this trip. The house was welcoming and matched everything mentioned. But I don't think you ever get use to the view. From walking it the door, to relaxing in the lounge room it's just there. We wanted somewhere away from everyone else, and this place was perfect. The drive to the house from the ferry is easy, the driveway a little lumpy but part of the charm. KI is easy to get around however there a lot of dirt roads, but they are in good condition. The master bed was so comfortable and waking up to the sun coming in over ocean view, there is no better way to start your day. I would recommend this property to couples and families, plenty of space and so homey and relaxing. Close to Penneshaw for supplies. We did visit the Enchanted Fig Tree while we were on Ki, a little expensive but such a lovely way to enjoy some local food and wine, I wouldn't recommend doing it at night on the roads to get there.”

Melissah, Dudley Peninsula, March 2024

“Three generations stayed in this beautiful location, ages ranging from 16 to 86 and we equally enjoyed our stay immensely. Our hosts have made this beautiful property very welcoming. Highly recommended base to enjoy Kangaroo Island.”

Pauline, Dudley Peninsula, March 2024

“A magical getaway and experience of the tranquility of the island. Great facilities for self catering and entertaining. Absolutely breathtaking views, sunrise over the water and friendly kangaroos and birds.”

Claire, Dudley Peninsula, March 2024

“Wow! Sue’s place on Kangaroo Island was an absolute paradise. The views to the hills and the ocean are just stunning. The sunsets and sunrises are like a dream. Every single day we saw kangaroos all over the hillsides and coming right up to the house. Seeing the kangaroos so close — including a mother and joey — was the highlight of the trip for our two young children. The wildlife on this island is truly amazing! We saw kangaroos, wallabies, eagles, an echidna, quokka and koalas. The wild koalas were just sleeping in the trees only minutes away on the side of the road. The house is wonderfully comfortable and has everything one could possibly need, including beach chairs, beach towels and a beach shade shelter. We saw so many pristine beaches that were never crowded. At times we were the only ones on the beach. It really is such a special place and an absolute natural paradise here. This has been one of our very favorite vacations. Thank you for the memories!”

Mikel, Middle River, March 2024

Caleb, Middle River, February 2024

“We had an absolutely amazing stay at Sue’s. We were greeted by wallabies and kangaroos right outside the property on dusk and dawn each day which was a very unique and truly “Kangaroo Island” experience. The sweeping views of the property were stunning. We also had some local honey waiting for us which was an unexpected surprise. I would (without doubt) stay here again - next time for longer.”

Cassandra, Dudley Peninsula, February 2024

“Our stay at Sue and Andys house was just wonderful and we will keep this in good memory. The view is spectacular and house set up, fit out and lovely details were much appreciated. We felt at home from the moment we walked in. The Kangaroos outside our window every night as well as the galahs were amazing. Thank you!”

Catiana, Dudley Peninsula, February 2024

“Most gorgeous views from this property, beautifully decorated and so homely. Beds super comfy too. Loved our stay! Will definitely be back”

Kelly, Dudley Peninsula, February 2024

“Quiet, private, breathtaking views, a beautiful space to hang out in, could’ve easily not gone out and just spent the whole time taking in the views. Comfortable beds. Great for kids. Lovely outdoor spaces. Lots of nature with kangaroos and Tamar wallabies on the lawn in the evenings. A curious red robin in residence. At nights lots of owls and curlews.”

Simon, Dudley Peninsula, January 2024

“Our Kangaroo Island wedding would have never been so beautiful without the accommodation of Sue. The house was in pristine condition, very clean, and had all the amenities and supplies we needed. Sue was also very responsive, thoughtful, and accommodating. I highly recommend Sue's lovely home.”

Peter Paul, Middle River, January 2024

“The Grass Tree is magnificent. It’s one of the most beautiful spots I’ve ever stayed. The location is stunning. Snellings beach, 5min drive from the house, is a beauty. The wildlife around the property, the view, the moon rising over the ocean, a magical place. Hope to be back some day. Thanks Sue.”

Charlotte, Middle River, January 2024

“Amazing and breathtaking views, whole family wanted to staying in home rather exploring KI. Hoping to come again this place soon.”

Rod, Middle River, January 2024

“Sue's place was perfect for our family of 6 adults. There were lots of great comfortable spaces for us to enjoy the magnificent views. Well equiped kitchen and comfortable beds. The property was very private and we felt so relaxed immediately as we entered the house. Sue was extremely thoughtful and responded quickly to any questions we had. Sue was super helpful in giving us lots of tips for the Island. Great memories were made here!”

Janeen, Dudley Peninsula, January 2024

“This is a very special property. The view of the ocean and Yorke Peninsula on the horizon is incredible. The garden is magnificent, and the house is beautifully presented and really functional. I would recommend to anyone.”

Hanah, Middle River, Jauary 2024

“This is a dream property! Everything is so beautifully done, gorgeous furnishing and fittings. The view (northeast facing) from lounge and main two bedrooms is stunning, over Backstairs Passage and an ever changing sea, to the Fleurieu. The owners have thought of everything, from a well-equipped kitchen with coffee machine, to quality handwashes and tissues in the bathrooms. the bed was so comfortable and great shower…
So peaceful! Birds fly past and kangaroos venture out. Communication with Sue was prompt and Welcoming. It was a wrench to leave. Highly recommended.”
