Family-friendly vacation rentals in Hawkesbury River

Thank you so much Margot & Lee, for the stay at your amazing house, overlooking the blue mountains. I can’t thank you enough for your support, hospitality, friendliness, prompt responses to any questions I had, and look forward to coming back again. 🥰

We had an incredible time staying! The apartment was even more amazing than we thought. It had everything we needed, and Sally dad - John warm welcome and gift were the best parts of our trip. Thank you so much for that! We’d love to come back to your place again in the spring if we ever get the chance.

We had a wonderful stay at this charming sandstone cottage in Kurrajong. The house is spacious and surrounded by peaceful bushland, with lovely walking trails and a great campfire spot. We especially enjoyed the unique cowboy and vintage memorabilia that gave the place so much character. The kitchen was very well equipped, allowing us to cook hearty meals and really make the space feel like home. On our last night, we ended the trip perfectly with a cozy campfire and roasted veggies under the stars. A beautiful, remote getaway—perfect for the Easter long weekend and a much-needed escape from the busy city life.

Great view and location, within minutes of multiple restaurants. Had an amazing stay and would return if in the area again :)

Antonina was a lovely host, who responded straight away to any questions we had. The home was just as described very beautiful with lovely surroundings. We felt so relaxed in this beautiful private surroundings. Would definitely recommend and we will hopefully be coming back in Easter.

We loved our stay at Bower Cottage. It was private, secluded and the surrounds were beautiful. It was cold when we were there, so we loved the fire and the giant spa bath. Anna was so lovely, responsive and very welcoming. Highly recommend and we will be back.

We had a lovely stay, view was amazing. Location was fantastic. Apartment was spacious and kitchen well equiped. Would totally recommend staying, will we again in the future. Thank you

Coledale is a special place and this house is one of the best places to stay to experience everything the area has to offer. Despite the inclement weather the house was comfortable, warm and well equipped with everything we needed. Thanks Tracey for making the check in and check out process so seamless. We will be back!

Beautiful property. Loved the nest! Lots of lovely walks and different places to unwind on the property itself. Waking up to all the birdsong was glorious. We had a really lovely relaxing stay - thank you very much Christine.

my dog Delta and I had the best time staying at Jacaranda cabin. Fiona was most accommodating and respected our privacy through our stay. I highly recommend this stay if you are looking to escape the world and be surrounded by beautiful nature. My dog was most welcome and great to have her by my side.

We stayed here in this unspoilt part of paradise for 4 nights and everything that we experienced from location, weather and amenities of the home were beyond our expectations and made our time here very memorable. Highly recommend Anne's place for a very relaxing and peaceful time away. Thank you Anne for your communication before, during and after our stay.

We stayed at this lovely Airbnb for 2 nights to visit family in Avalon. Patti and Maya were highly responsive from the time of booking to the end of the stay. The home was perfect for our party of three and 2 small dogs. It was clean, cosy and everything we needed was available and then some. We had no trouble finding the home, entering it or finding a parking space close to the home on the street. The 2 bedrooms with ensuites was a perfect setup for us as well as the open concept living space. The TV and wifi worked well. We spent a great deal of time in the outdoor living space and even though it rained we still enjoyed it. The neighbourhood is quiet and locals friendly. Close to coffee shops, beaches, restaurants, grocery, pubs and clubs. I have a senior dog that has high anxiety when away from home and he was extremely chilled in this environment. The only negative thing I have to say is that we didn’t stay long enough. 10/10 Highly recommend.

My friends & I booked Jenny’s place last minute solely based on all of her previous reviews and we were not disappointed at all! We got unlucky with some rain on our second day, but upon arrival we enjoyed helping Jenny feed the ducks, chickens & horses. She was an amazing host & left us the yummiest silky chicken eggs. We spoke about her journey in acquiring the many Arabian horses she had on her farm and wished we were able to do the farm tour if weather had permitted. I am definitely looking to come stay here again very soon!

We had a lovely stay at Jan’s cabin! The location was incredibly secluded and picturesque, offering a peaceful retreat close to nature. Jan was a fantastic host—very welcoming and attentive, even making our dog Poppy feel right at home. If you’re looking for a simple yet charming stay surrounded by nature, this cabin is a great choice. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful stay at Victoria’s place. The place itself was stunning and it was filled with beautiful and thoughtful touches such a bottle of wine and breakfast food ready - even fresh eggs! Victoria met us and walked us through the place and even let us check out late. We’d definitely recommend this place.

Koonje is just delightful on all levels. The location looking over the valley is magical and the cottage itself is a beautifully decorated, warm inviting haven. Michael and his family have created a wonderfully eclectic style, true to the traditions of the Blue Mountains yet with every modern comfort. The bathrooms are a real pleasure and the spacious kitchen is incredibly well equipped for cooking if you feel so inclined. Despite the winter weather we spent time outside enjoying the beautifully landscaped garden but loved lighting the fire at night. We will certainly book again.

Amazing place. Felt really special the moment you stepped in. Tim has thought about every possible thing you would need for you stay. Thank you so much for the amazing experience.

Sarah is very friendly and a great communicator. The place has everything we needed, was very cute and in perfect shape. Gorgeous spot right against the forest, quiet location at the end of the street, with a nice walk right from the house. Highly recommend and would gladly visit again. 😊🙏🧡

This house is absolutely stunning, you will not want to leave. The view is spectacular, the inside was cosy and spacious, it looked like it was straight out of a magazine and perfect for a weekend to hang with friends. We will be back because we loved it so much! Thanks for being great hosts! We were lucky enough to get an early check-in and late check-out, which we appreciated greatly!

We have stayed with Genie often while visiting family nearby. We enjoying catching the bus at the end of the street and making our way to the station to catch the train to the city. There are parks and walks nearby, and we regularly walk to a cafe in Asquith for coffee. Genie's place is roomy and private, with everything we need for our stay. We particularly appreciate the washing machine and drying space.

Definitely one of the best AirBnB we have stayed at. Judy and Bruce were welcoming, helpful and friendly, even allowing us to check in an hour early (after a very early start for an early flight). Corona cottage is delightful and has everything you could need for a relaxing weekend. Unfortunately, the sofa bed was rather squeaky, but comfortable according to our adult son who slept on it, and the queen bed was very comfortable. The grounds are perfectly maintained and the pool looked lovely (although we did not get to use it due to rainy weather). A nice touch was the fresh fruit bowl and continental breakfast supplied. Overall, an amazing place for our family to relax and unwind, I highly recommend it if you are visiting the area.

We had a lovely time at Rod and Lynsey’s place. All of the needs for young families was very well thought out from night lights to access to a huge trampoline and simple things like washing machine detergent and milk for breakfast after a late night arrival. They also offered tips to travel more easily into Sydney city and there bar area was a fun and relaxing retreat for parents. Thanks very much, we look forward to visiting at the same time next year!

We could not fault our stay ! The apartment was well equipped , clean and in a great location ! Will definitely stay again when we are next in Manly !

This accommodation was perfect for what we needed it for. It didn’t quite match the pictures in terms of furniture etc but that didn’t put us off at all. John and his family were helpful and accommodating. Even letting us use their dryer when it rained. It was simply a base for us and the pool was an added bonus. It was a lot cheaper than other accommodation nearby which sold it to us and I am glad that it did. I think we will definitely be booking to stay here again in the future.
