The Shack - Previously Hosted by Josh and Jenna

This little escape is all about memories.
Remember those simple beach days and the tiny, fun, casual beach shack that was home for the summer? Now you can recapture that feeling with The Shack. A classic 50s beach cabin that instantly transports you to oversized beach towels, foam eskies, and beach umbrellas with frills. Situated near beautiful Skenes Creek and a short walk to ‘Skenies’ beach, you can relax and recapture youthful days by washing the sand off your feet under the front yard tap.

Inside, The Shack has one bedroom with a Queen bed and a view and a second bedroom with bunks.
The Shack is all about no nonsense fun. Basic. Simple. Clean and close to the breaking waves. And all
this, just a short drive to the main town of Apollo Bay and all its restaurants and cafés.

Entire home and property.

Available to guests via phone or email but the space is yours to enjoy and you will have full privacy.

Skenes Creek is an idyllic township on the Great Ocean Road, only a 5 minute drive from Apollo Bay on a popular surf beach.
Skenes Creek is a great place to base yourself to explore the Great Ocean Road and Great Otway National Park.
The Otways walks and waterfalls are only a short drive away and are absolutely worth the explore any time of the year.
Apollo Bay is only a short 5 minute drive and has all the shops, restaurants and amenities you’ll require.
For fresh fish and chips you can’t go past The Apollo Bay Seafood Cafe and for something a little fancier try La Bimba. The famous Wye Beach Hotel is a 20 minute drive and is known for its stunning uninterrupted ocean views and great pub meals.
For your morning coffee you can walk to the local caravan park general store or head to Hello in Apollo Bay which is a hidden gem the locals love!
Whether you like to surf, fish, walk or just like to relax, Skenes Creek is the place for you!
