Family friendly and a good size
Great property, very comfortable for four adults and two young kids. The deck is great, and we were very happy with all aspects of the house. Would return again!
Everything you need for a getaway or a long stay.Place was cosy ,tidy ,smelt great and close to all amenities.
Fully recommend this place for a trip away.
A great located property with all amenities needed for a fantastic stay. The host Kas was easy to communicate with, welcoming and even shared her veggie garden with us.
House is clean and has a fantastic decking!
Thanks Kas, we will be booking again in the future.
Great property. Had everything we needed for our family to four.
The milkbar and cafe at the end of the street are super handy.
We had a great break and would highly recommend.
Overall, it was an okay stay. Check-in was super easy and smooth, which was great. Communication with the property manager was good and quick - initially when we did try book the property it did take awhile to get an answer.The location was really good and the place was mostly as described, but the cleanliness wasn’t quite there and could definitely be better. That took away from the experience a bit.Decent stay overall, but some improvements would make a big difference.
We had a very pleasant stay. Everything was clean and tidy. After a storm one of the power points went out. The owners were kind enough to send their son down with extension cords so we could still use the microwave and tv. Thanks very much for a wonderful relaxing holiday
We had a lovely holiday - the deck and BBQ set up was fabulous and the air conditioning and fans were great - the house was super tidy and had everything we needed. The section is steep but there’s flat space out the back which works for kids. Superb little cafe only 3 mins away too! Thank you for having us!
This property has a wonderful location. Communication with the host was great.
The oven was a little tricky to use. The wifi worked well. We would be happy to return.
We had a great time at Kaz' s property. It's definitely great value for money. This property has great views and a perfect entertaining area out on the deck. There is a milk bar a short walk that provides all your needs. I would definitely recommend this property.

Fantastic location, clean and quiet
Had a great stay - location was fantastic. Great little coffee shop and milk bar 100 metres away and a perfect no through road for our children to ride their bikes and play cricket. House was very clean and provided lots of little extras. The only suggestion I would make is that the locks on the doors weren't very safe - the flyscreen doors did not lock at all and the door locks weren't very strong. In addition, the instructions for using the tv were complicated, requiring three remotes to use it. My suggestion would be to simply have one remote for the tv.

Clean, comfortable and great deck!
We had a great weekend at this property. It is in a nice and quiet location, still close enough to walk to shops and beach. House is lovely and clean and the deck is the highlight. The owner (Kaz) was easy to deal with, even volunteering to separate the bunks for us. Highly recommend to pay extra for the linen as when you get there the beds are made up for you. Will definitely look to come back again.

Wonderful deck and clean house on a hill
We had a lovely stay at Decked out on the Peninsula. The location was really good, we explored the wineries in the area and drove down the coast while we were there! The deck was wonderful to enjoy a glass or two of wine. The house was clean and had everything we could need for a weekend away.
I have just had ankle surgery and I'm not mobile enough to bring my own linen and make the beds. The owner provided linen and made the beds at a cost of $30 per bed - taken out of my deposit. If I stayed again, I'd definitely bring my own linen as it ended up costing a lot more than I originally expected.

Comfortable and enjoyable stay
We really enjoyed our stay at Decked out on the Peninsula and Kas was very attentive when answering our emails and messages. We particularly enjoyed the decking out the front which offered a great view in a quiet area. We will definitely be back again!
