"The place where my beloved asked for my hand in marriage, this place will always be magical, enchanted and brimming with memories of diamonds in the moonlight, rolling mist, ships on the ocean, crackling fires and blue wrens. The picture window and the walled garden were exquisite features."

"What a stunning and magic place! It's the sort of home that you (or certainly I!) would like to call your own. Sitting on the comfy coach in front of the huge picture window (needless to say, with a glass of wine in hand) overlooking sheep paddocks in the foreground and the Eastern end of Kangaroo Island in the distance - it simply can't get much better. The house is very modern, yet fits beautifully into the landscape and has a totally environmentally-friendly design. The attention to little details is wonderful - those include lovely bed socks, chocolates and little origami birds that await you on your bed on arrival. It was perfect!!!
There are plenty of interesting hikes to do in the conservation park. We will most definitely visit the retreat again in the future and can only recommend it to everyone else!!!"

"We had one of our most memorable weekends at the Deep Creek Retreat. We loved the decor and the amazing views that this eco-house has to over. We were totally in awe of the ever changing views and sat for hours soaking up this visual delight.I describe it as a romantic getaway in a beautiful natural setting if you just want to get away from the city to relax and rest. I give Deep Creek Retreat 5 stars for value, service and overall experience. Thank you Ian and Sandra for a beautiful experience!"

"It is not often that expectations are exceeded when booking a place over the internet. Our expectations were exceeded with Deep Creek Retreat.
The huge picture window in the living area overlooks a birdbath in the garden (lots of native birds), which overlooks a large valley (lots of kangaroos) and then Backstairs Passage and Kangaroo Island are on the horizon.
The tree house and a 'secret garden" within the garden (not mentioned on the webpage) were also a pleasant surprise and fun diversion for our boys aged 5 and 7.
I would highly recommend Deep Creek Retreat to anyone (and have in fact done so to my friends).

"Beautifully presented hideaway.
The perfect place to unwind and totally recharge your batteries.
Trust me, you won't miss the "plasma TV" or the "spa bath".
This was our second trip, and definitely won't be our last."

"This, without doubt and understatement, is the best places to relax and unwind set amongst well thought out gardens, splendid views and a wonderful location. In addition the owners obviously take great pride with their house. The only thing I would say is don’t tell anyone – keep this secret for us in the know. "

"'Deep Creek Retreat' is the most perfect holiday house we have ever experienced. The house is made for comfort and harmony. The large, all round windows allow for fantastic views of the garden, hills and ocean. The owners are very caring, warm people who think of everything possible to make one feel at home. Incredible bushwalking trails and beaches make for an excellent holiday for young and old. Please don't all flock to this retreat, as we intend visiting it regularly for short stays! This place is unforgettable!"

"'Deep Creek Retreat' was the most beautiful, serene, relaxing and peaceful place we have ever stayed. The views are amazing and the place itself needs to be seen to be believed. It is beautifully thought out by the lovely owners who made everthing at the retreat so special. The atmosphere is so claming and peaceful and you could just stay forever!!
We highly recommend 'Deep Creek Retreat' for the most unwinding, relaxing and back to nature place you could ask for. We have come home clear minded, refreshed and very happy.
FANTASTIC!!!!!"
