The bedrooms feature a queen-sized bed in each room, 100% linen bedding, linen bathrobes, water views and block-out blinds. The main bedroom has a compact built-in wardrobe, direct access to the timber deck, and a stylish bathroom featuring a rain shower head, flushing toilet, vanity, towels and beautiful Australian-made body products.

Enjoy watching the abundance of birdlife including the endangered glossy black cockatoos from the large timber deck or sit by the firepit on a cool winter’s night.

Located in the heart of the American River there are several hiking trails close by including the independence trail and the cannery trail. Experience the freshest seafood at The Oyster Farm Shop and explore the wharf for a spot of fishing, kayaking and wildlife spotting. The resident long-nosed fur seals are a highlight to watch!
