What a fantastic location! Water views just as promised. The shack is really well appointed, too! A television, heat, a/c, full kitchen with everything we needed, loads of room to move about. But it is a shack so if you need luxury, try something else. We were looking for exactly this kind of break so it was perfect for us!!

Property was perfect for our family summer holiday. Exactly as expected. This is a typical beach shack. Good provisions for kitchen but could benefit from a larger saucepan to cook pasta etc. Great to have 2 toilets. Beautiful spot right on the coast at Port Moorowie.

Nice and comfy

A nice place that is a mixture of eras but it works.Has all you need. Including awesome sea views. Extremely well insulated for even those chilly times. Was a great spot to do this section of Walk the Yorke.

Old shack with not much love taken to rent out. Needs a lot of work. It's old, it's basic. We had somewhere safe to sleep. Clean windows that aren't broken would help to see the beautiful view.

Never stated anything thing else and yes it is old as it is one of the very first set of shacks in this area. Not sure what you want for the cost and we have slowly been improving things.
