All of the cottages have a very private setting, a private double spa, air-conditioning for summer, wood fire for winter, all linen is provided and each cottage has a special feature, unique only to itself.
Blackwood River Cottages is about old moss covered fence posts, winter mist rising from the river, clear night skies with twinkling stars overhead, peace, the sounds of silence and old fashioned country warmth.
The forty acre property is bordered by forest and the Blackwood River providing guests with a choice of forest or property walk trails, wildflower walks in the adjoining forest or for a small fee, guests can hire a canoe on site for a half day paddle on the river taking in the scenic forest views. Abundant bird and wildlife can be spotted by the sharp eyed guest.
