  • "Dream catcher was everything we wanted and suited our party extremely well. The location is really central and the house just makes for an overall relaxing time. We will be back for sure and tell others........just as long as we can get another booking. Our catch phase all weekend was "Dream catcher - were dreams really do come true"."

  • "Thank you. We all had a wonderful time in Shellharbour. Your house is just lovely, and the boys had a lot of fun chasing Casey Stoner around the GP circuits! as the sky dive was called off due to weather ):- The day bed was a big hit and the BBQ and breakies on the deck were great. I enjoyed a quick dip in the pool Sunday morning. We played monopoly on Friday night (hadn���t play for 30 years), was so surprise at how the cost of living has gone up on that game, collect $2,000,000 to pass Go!!!! (I���m sure it was $200!) We didn���t get into the outdoor spa, but we did top up the water and put some spa shock in readiness for a spa on Saturday avo, but the weather turned a bit windy. Anyway, thank you again for the use of your lovely holiday home. We���ll certainly tell our friends and hopefully plan another short stay in the future. "

  • "Hi Cameron, Donna May I add, I also enjoyed myself very much. Watching the parents sit on the balcony and forget about the rest of the world, while looking at the water, is a good memory for me. Relish was an excellent recommendation as well. Their food was divine! We also went to Minamura (think that���s how you spell it) Falls, walking up those hills helped me work off all the food I was indulging in. "

  • "Hi Donna & Cameron, We had a fantastic weekend at the Dream Catcher Beach House. The house was absolutely perfect for us and the beautifully appointed fixtures provided inspiration for two of the ladies who are dreaming of new kitchens and bathrooms in their own homes, their husbands are not so happy... their list of jobs to do around the house has just increased dramatically! Out of curiosity, what are the approximate costs for a week stay? Once again, thank you for the use of the dream catcher, we had a lovely time and will certainly be coming again. "

  • "Just leaving shortly, great house will certainly be back next time we?re down this neck of the woods. The Olympic pool is fantastic and the run to Bass point stunning, with the jacuzzi being the ideal way to unwind. Thanks again "

  • "Donna and Cam, WOW- thank you so much for your beautiful house on the weekend, what an amazing location and space. We are all curious, was this a project home or architecturally designed. Loved the Day bed outside, kitchen and the spa!!!. Thanks again, everything was spot on. The wedding was on Friday and we were so lucky with the weather, blue skies, no wind and just perfect. "

  • "Hello Cameron and Donna, We can't thank-you enough for allowing us into your beautiful home to enjoy all that it has to offer. It truly was a weekend in heaven and we can't wait to come back next year, thanks again Irma "

  • "Cam and Donna, Can't thankyou enough, we had the most wonderful time, all of us were catered for. Mum was over the moon with the houses and the area and was already recommending them to people who rang her whilst we were there... no doubt the recommendations won't stop there. We had a magical time driving around the local villages, trying foods (robertsons pies, lollies from shellharbour, ice creams from kiama and beers at the great local pubs from scarborough to jamboree(?), seeing the sights and coming back to have a ball as a family for our meals out on the balcony. The locality is perfect for those early morning strolls along the beach and the village, or perfectly quiet for a sleep-in. It was great to not have to worry about anything with linen, towels and any cooking/eating implements supplied. I personally loved the range of books we could relax and devour, the recipe books had us all talking and 'Living life in abundance' has re-inspired and motivated me to move on some things i've stalled lately. Thankyou again very much, Tammy and Jenny and family "
