Massive thank you to Jacqui for such a beautiful stay at The Milson! The house is absolutely beautiful! From the gorgeous central indoor fireplace, the comfy beds, the beautiful kitchen, stunning bath...tub and amenities, the views, the location! So much care was put into this stunning oasis. Our stay provided some much needed R&R and we're so grateful :)

The Milson - bespoke riverside luxury was exactly what I hoped it would be. The property has such a homely feel. Perfect place to relax. The beds were super comfortable. Perfect for a weekend getaway.

Kayak Milsons Passage

Grab a kayak and explore the scenic shoreline. Towering cliffs and trees surround you while you cruise along.

Bushwalk In The Nature Reserve

From the back door of Mackys we hiked to the peak of the Muogamarra Nature Reserve to find a view of Berowra Creek to Bar Point waiting for us.

Hawkesbury Water Taxi

This is how you get around in Bar Point. It's a 15min ride upriver to Dyarubbin and it's an epic way to rock up to your accommodation. Hire a tinny for your stay from Hawkesbury Water Taxi's and you'll be getting around like a local.

Coffee Run By Boat

There are plenty of nooks and crannies upriver from Bar Point. One of those is the quiet riverside town of Spencer. Grabbing a coffee seemed like the perfect excuse to go for a burn-in our tinny (thanks to Hawkesbury Water Taxi's) so we took off upstream watching the locals and their way of life on the river while meandering up the shoreline.
