Calm Waters is located at Sussex Inlet, in the Shoalhaven on the South Coast of NSW, about 3 hours drive south of Sydney. Sussex is a popular tourist destination as it is
close to beaches, national parks, lake and shops - all only 3 hours from Sydney.

Calm Waters Waterfront Cottages are 5 delightfully restored 1940s holiday cottages nestled on 1 acre of private waterfront land in the heart of Sussex Inlet.
Each cottage is fully self contained with all modern convenience. Polished timber floors inside lead to your own verandah overlooking the crystal clear waters of the inlet.

There is ample room at Calm Waters for on-site parking and group recreational activities with a wood barbeque in the central park area. Friendly kangaroos often laze under the shady trees overlooking the calm waters of Sussex Inlet.
Sussex Inlet township is an easy 2 minute stroll with all facilities including shopping centre, bank, cafés, art gallery, restaurants, club and bait & tackle.

"We very much enjoyed our stay. The cottage was just right and its location perfect. The welcome by Conchita was warm and helpful. I would unreservedly recommend Calm Waters and we would certainly return."
Everything we wished for a short Easter break. Located in a small, convenient and friendly town, our cottage had waterfront views and kangaroos visited daily. The service was extremely friendly and helpful and the cottage was beautifully set up for our stay. The cottage was clean, neat and had all the facilities we needed. It was good value seeing as our whole family stayed and even our dog. The atmosphere of the area was fantastic, and it was a great time to spend with family. I would defintely go back again."
WHAT A GREAT PLACE VERY QUITE AND RELAXING. LOVED FEEDING THE POSSUM,KANGAROO AND BIRDS EVERY NIGHT. WILL COME BACK AGAIN WHAT A LOVELY PLACE VERY CLEAN.

"Accomodation was clean and tidy and as expected for a 1940s bungalo. Location was excellent with good access to the river. Views to the river are restricted from Bungalo 5 which is the "Pet Friendly" bungalo.
Fencing is around the full area, not around Bungalo 5 as some of the pictures on the web site may depict. Generally speaking a lovely spot for a quiet getaway with very welcolming owners without being over the top."

The friendly help of Conchita and Perry really made our visit extremelly enjoyable. As my mother is aged and has limited movement we thought the pontoon would be out of the question, but not with Perry's help. I wouldn't stay anywhere else after experiencing the clean comfortabe and quaint accomodation, not to mention being right on the water.

"Our stay at the Calm Waters Waterfront Cottages was excellent, the cottage was very clean and well-equipped, the owners were very nice and friendly and helpful our Dalmatians loved it there, right on the waterfront and the views were wonderful. It is hard to find accommodation where we can take our Dallies away with us and we highly recommend staying at this pet friendly cottage..."

"Our stay at Calm Waters was wonderful. The cottages are very clean, comfortable and well set up with everything that you could possibly need. The location is excellent, we arrived on Friday and did not get back in the car until it was time to leave on Sunday as everything is a short walk away. Conchita and Perry are excellent hosts we really loved the fact that we could get in early on Friday and leave late on Sunday getting true value for money for our weekend away."

"A comfortable cottage very suitable for our family of four. Great location, close to all facilities and fantastic for children. Despite rain, our stay was peaceful and relaxing. We would definitely return again."

"The accommodation is clean, comfortable and well presented. Most importantly you get exactly what is advertised -- no hidden imperfections. I have stayed at Calm Waters three times and would not hesitate spending more holidays there."
