Property was clean and well maintained. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well appointed, garage was great for car and bike storage. Large back deck and front deck were nice for sitting and relaxing on. Also, having a washing machine was handy. Our dog loved exploring the large, enclosed yard, Dog owners need to be mindful of the presence of cane toads in the area. Close to the river and Sunshine Plaza. Great communication with the owner Steve. Would recommend.

We had a lovely stay at this cosy little beach shack. It’s simple but had everything our family needed for our 5 nights. The beds were comfy, the kitchen had all the essentials, and the yard was perfect for the kids to run around.The location is fantastic just a short 5 minute walk to the river and a quick drive to shops and Maroochydore Beach. We would happily rebook this house.
