An absolute waterfront restored cottage, surrounded by 100 acres of private property. Tastefully appointed, Ratcliff Cottage can comfortably sleep up to 8 guests.
Pelican Lagoon is an idea base to explore all Kangaroo Island has to offer.

Island Beach and American River are both within a 10 minute drive.
