Reviews
Family holiday
Rosalind Munro - 4th January 2021Very comfortable, clean, some windows hard to open (hence our problem in bedroom downstairs). Kitchen well equipped, problem with upstairs TV getting free to air and Netflix, a few extra bath towels recommended, would give a 5 star if driveway/parking had been easier but overall we enjoyed our family Xmas very much.
We love this house
Josie MacRae - 22nd November 2020We’ve stayed here twice. The deck is huge and wonderful for relaxing. The style of the house is gorgeous, but it’s not so perfect you can’t relax. Downstairs is great to give older kids their own space. And it’s so sensible that a few basic supplies are already there. Nothing worse than only being left one dishwasher tablet and no salt and pepper!
The Werri Shack was a lovely home for a large group. It is just like the photos and is wonderfully decorated. The kitchen provided many amenities that were very useful, and many cleaning supplies were provided. The only downside of this house, is the lack of sound proofing. From the rooms downstairs, every noise made upstairs can be heard. Many of us found it very difficult to sleep as even walking at a normal pace and not thumping, can be heard very clearly. Otherwise we had a lovely time here, and particularly enjoyed the beautiful view of the beach from the top deck. Would stay again.
Place was really clean, beautifully styled with all the little touches thought of. Amazing location and walking distance to beach and shops. The deck was a stand out and our dog loved the backyard!
We stayed for 2 night with our friends and dogs and we all enjoyed the property. Plenty of room for everyone and very close to the town centre, beach and coastal walk (all walking distance).
Lovely!
Anonymous - 31st August 2020The Werri Shack is a lovely, relaxing, clean property with beautiful views.
Peaceful retreat
GMCD - 23rd February 2020Very spacious and well equipped house on a quiet residential street in Gerringong. A short walk to Werri beach and Gerringong town centre. Recommended.

Would Love To Visit Again!
eholm - 30th December 2019Amazing place to holiday with teenagers and dogs. The downstairs area [is the] perfect place for the kids to have their own space. Brilliantly equipped kitchen as well - made cooking etc a pleasure. Would love to visit again!
Perfect for teenagers
Emma - 14th December 2019Bought three teenage boys down for a four night stay during the first week of Christmas school holidays to get them away from technology etc. The set up of the place is amazing. The boys spent most of their relaxation time playing table tennis, playing footy in the yard or relaxing in the rumpus room. Also had two dogs in tow - the place is great for them as well. The yard is secure and the balcony a great spot for them to snooze in the sun. The place is also well suited for the adults. The kitchen is very well equipped and there are ample spots to sit and get into a good book. Overall highly recommended.
Perfect Location!
Pamela - 8th November 2019This was such a pleasant surprise for myself, partner and our dog. The property is exceptionally well-maintained, with good quality linen and bathroom towels. The entire home is immaculate and offers extensive views over Werri Beach. We loved every minute of our 5 day stay here. We immediately felt comfortable and relaxed. The beach, restaurants and shops are all within walking distance. Thank you so much - we will be back soon!

Casual, relaxed beatifully appointed beach house!
Jason - 26th February 2019As you look at the photos, the shack looks wonderful. They do not do it justice however. The view is vastly superior and the rooms are generously large. The interior design of the shack is modern, well thought out and very relaxed. There is everything you need in this one and a distinct attention to detail. A short walk to the beach and halfway up the hill to the high street. In a very quiet street, so typically Australian and relaxed. We will certainly grab this one again when returning to see family in Gerringong. High recommend it for its ease of check-in process, style, relaxed and comfortable interiors, the view and proximity to both the High Street and the beach! Well done and thank you.
Wonderful
