About this property
Calm Waters Waterfront Cottages @ Sussex Inlet
Calm Waters is a laid back, waterfront resort consisting of 6 two and three bedroom cottages situated on the river right in the heart of Sussex Inlet. Built in the 1940s originally as Fisherman's cottages, they have been lovingly and respectfully restored to ensure guests have all the modern necessities including air-con and Wi-Fi while maintaining their period features including polished hardwood timber floors, pressed metal ceilings and picture rails.
Ideally situated on the water's edge with private jetty and moorings, Calm Waters is the perfect place to stay for those who wish to enjoy the relaxing and rejuvenating effects of the river. Sit on your private verandah reading a book and let the gentle sea breeze wash over you, take a stroll along the pedestrian path into town or head down to the water and spend the afternoon fishing off the resort's private jetty.
Sussex Inlet is a sleepy seaside town best enjoyed on or by the water. Boat hire, canoe hire and paddle-board hire is located 200m along the cycle-path and for those with their own boats there are 3 private moorings and plenty of parking for trailers on the property. Please contact us at your time of booking so we can reserve a mooring for your use during your stay.
Each cottage is fully self-contained with well equipped kitchens, dining and lounge areas, private bathrooms and covered private verandahs. Cottages 1 & 2 and Cottages 3 & 4 can be combined to suit larger groups. Each cottage contains consumables including tea & coffee toilet paper, cling wrap, foil, hand-wash, detergent etc for your convenience. Please let us know if you require a high chair or porta-cot at your time of booking and we will make sure these are provided in your room. Bed linen is provided for each bed, with the main bedroom made up ready for your arrival. Please note that a towel package is available as an add-on when booking otherwise guests are asked to bring their own bath and beach towels.
Being animal lovers we understand that leaving your pets behind when you go on holidays can be heartbreaking and worry-some which is why Calm Waters is a pet-friendly property. If you would like to bring your pet please send us an email to see if we can accommodate your needs. (Please note, we only allow one pet per stay per cottage, upon application)
The property features a shared laundry with washing machine, laundry tub and dryer and portable BBQs that guests can use throughout their stay.

Calm waters relax
The property was lovely, clean with a beautiful outlook and garden, the only thing the bed was very hard, and another shelf in the bathroom would make it easier for placement of items.
Calm Waters was a lovely stay by the lake. We loved fishing off the jetty and the beautiful surroundings. The cottage was cozy and in a great quiet location.

Calm Waters! Calming.
Booking was simple, contacting the owners was easy and the accommodation was amazing, meters from the water and jetty and a very short walk to the shops.
We’ll definitely be back!
