Reviews
Beautiful view!
Sarah - 1st April 2022Cute little house with a beautiful view and beach access. Nice quiet area. The kids loved all the toys and sleeping in bunk beds!
Weekend away
Victor Paciocco - 28th February 2022Cosy place, the family had a lovely time . Clean and comfortable
Relax at The Shack
Louise OConnor - 21st February 2022What a magical place! The house is cute and is fully equipped for a great stay. Relaxing on the deck overlooking the water was a great way to start and end the day with so much to do, right at your fingertips!
Classic beach house feel
Julie Cayrol - 9th January 2022Nice little beach house with all amenities needed including great toys, books and cutlery/dishes for kids. Great view of the estuary, and loved the outdoor shower and BBQ.
Beautiful retro cottage
Anthony Polinelli - 1st June 2021The Shack is everything you need it to be; stunning beach front location; 10 mins drive to Hyams, Vincentia and Huskisson and wonderfully retro. The property itself is three bedrooms but it is not a sprawling mansion. The Shack is well equipped with everything we needed including reverse cycle AC, Miele washer dryer and dishwasher. The interior is furnished in a mid century modern style with coastal accents, while the outside is still the original 1950s cottage. Loved it!
Very nice place to enjoy our holiday
Excellent cozy house with an amazing view and location . Very good for a chill weekend , will return again :)
Great house in a great location. Near everything but feels a lot more peaceful than busy huskisson.
Lovely, comfortable place...best enjoyed by one couple and kids, otherwise can be a bit cosy. Fabulous view and easy access to the water and terrific park for little ones!
I loved this place so much! It was so cute and cosy and it had the most amazing view. The amenities in the house were so good and it was very easy to find the location. I would stay again! :)
So great
Stevie Hefferan - 8th February 2021I loved everything about this property! Would highly recommend :)
Great location , peaceful , enjoyed our stay
Felicia Mavro - 3rd February 2021The Shack is lovely and has amenities one needs for a getaway. Everything is in working order but if I May say there are many dead insects stuck on the walls that reall y should not be there , a few Cobb webs here and there. A paint job to freshen the shack , there are evident leak marks on ceilings. Hence musty smell inside the house . The toppers of sun beds outside are old and too filthy to lie on .
Beautiful view from the terrace and birds singing next to you. A lot of greenery around the house, so relaxing. Outdoor shower is great. A lot of parking behind the house in the private back yard. The place is smaller than it looks in photos, but ok if you spend your daytime out. Two bedrooms have only short bunk beds, not suitable for tall adults. Kitchen well equipped with a capsule coffee machine. Watch out for musquitos, we couldn't keep them away with any repellents.
BEAT VIEEEEW! We had a beautiful stay over Christmas. My small children loved all the toys, books and dvds that are provided. We even had a few kangaroo visitors in the backyard, which was the most exciting part of our stay. The basin walk is nice and easy my 2 year old walked 90% of it. The water is nice and calm but unfortunately it had a lot of jellyfish but no one else seemed to be bothered by them.
Beautiful place would recommend 100%
Good place for a weekend getaway
Great little house
Kathryn Gray - 19th November 2020The house was well equipped and it made our stay very enjoyable. Nothing extra was required. We would like to return for two weeks in February, pending tariffs at that time. Kath
This well deserved extra long weekend getaway with close friends exceeded all of our expectations! Even the unfavourable weather could not dampen our spirits. Thank you so much for allowing us to unwind amongst the bush birds and the beautiful view of the bay. Quaint, cosy and incredibly comfortable. Only suggestion, a clear list of what to bring... we came well and truly over prepared however didn’t think to bring garbage bags. Thank you again and we look forward to visiting Jervis Bay and your properties again soon.
Such a lovely place to stay!
Expectation vs. reality
Great holiday house
Dianne - 21st January 2019We had a great time in the The Shack, very relaxing, with all you need. Wonderfully close to the water for the boys to enjoy and to the walking track around the lake.
Great location
Simon24 - 29th October 2018We found this property to be all most perfect. Place was clean when we arrived. Had everything we needed for our long weekend. Location was great as we had a boat and slipway was only a 400m away. Plenty of parking, although it is a bit tough backing a boat onto the property. Would we book again, yes definitely.
Extremely Relaxing
MelCR - 4th March 2018Great place for a peaceful, relaxing stay. Very well equipped, clean & tidy.
Lovely place with a great view
Airbnb - 23rd November 2017It's a lovely place with a great view. The outside deck is really nice with plenty of trees around and birds, specially kookaburras. The house is nicely kept and has all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay.
Sumptuous Shack

Great Place
Tomsjulie - 2nd September 2015Stayed for 3 overnights and we all enjoyed our time in there, nicely renovated so very modern inside although still has that nice old beach shack feel externally, has amazing views over the bay, this is a really kids- friendly place, my daughter got never bored because of many DVDs, books, games and toys already stored in the house
