Excellent location close enough to Penneshaw to get provisions and have meals out but far enough to avoid other tourists.House fully equipped with modern furnishings.Bed really comfortable.Beach small but very scenic and nice for swimming .
I stayed for 4 days and I could have stayed forever!
I stayed for 4 days and I could have stayed forever! The most beautiful, pristine place I have ever been to! The wildlife, bird life and scenery was so beautiful! The only noise I heard were all the birds singing and the gentle waves….stunning

There’s literally nothing at American River except the lovely oyster farm shop that has terrific seafood. If you go to Kangaroo Island, which is beautiful, stay at Kingscote. The Ozone Hotel has good food and rooms as a start.

American river is quiet and has interesting history and little walks. With driving after 6pm not recommended it is rather good that the restaurant is excellent. (some hire car companies offer NO INSURANCE COVERAGE if vehicles are driven after 6pm - because of likelihood of wildlife strike).

It's a peaceful place and cool to see pelicans, black swans and the rare glossy black cockatoos. However, there isn't really a swimming beach so it is maybe more for fishing trips than beach-goers. Staying in the hotel means you are limited to eating out and there are few options (the hotel is excellent but expensive) - 2 nights here was great but we were happy to move on where we had more options of activities and food for the rest of our trip.

American River is a small, quiet town located approximately half way between Penneshaw, where the ferry from the mainland arrives and the main town of Kingscote. It was an easy 30 minutes between. Cooinda was quiet, had a lovely view over the water, comfy bed, hot shower and the bonus of a good kitchen and seperate living area, if you wanted to self cater. It was good to have a space that wasn't a hotel room for a business trip.
Nice cosy & spacious cottage.
Had everything we needed.. lovely bathroom!
Loved the fact there were heaters in every room as we wasn't expecting it to be cold..
Good location though American River itself didn't have much and couldn't really go to the beach there as muddy.
The property is in a great spot in American River. Surrounded by nature, but walking distance from some town amenities. Staff were really lovely and the place was comfortable. For a place so remote the staff do a great job of making the stay comfortable and relaxing.
The location in American River is amazing. It is very peaceful and relaxing. There are many birds to listen to and watch.
The hosts are welcoming and informative. The apartment is comfortable and has everything you need.
View from balcony. Walking trail. Native birds in surrounding trees. Short walk to hotel for dinner and drinks. Breakfast and coffee included. Quiet and peaceful. Lovely hosts.
