Pets Policy
 
We love animals, however because we have an abundance of wildlife at Kangaroo Creek Retreat we do need to be careful as to the kind of animals we allow to accompany our guests, just in case they scare our precious wildlife away.  Please contact us via email or phone and let us know what type of animal/s you would like to bring with you and we will let you know if we think it is a good mix. We reserve the right to charge a "pet bond" for certain types of animals.
