We had a very pleasant stay. We loved the private “sun trap” at the back of the house and my little dog was busy exploring the lovely enclosed back garden. We had no complaints, the small “treats” we found was an added bonus. We look forward to visiting again.Patricia.

Stunning spot!

This is a great property to stay in! Close to the beautiful Mystery Bay and surrounding beaches, which are stunning. The house is great, the fireplace was so lovely to sit around on cold winter nights. The host, Ev, is lovely too! Thanks for a great stay

We had a wonderful short break in Mystery Bay. The house was very comfortable and close to the beach - we were lucky enough to see the humpback whales putting on a show on their way north. Eveleigh checked in on us ( via text) to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. Would definitely stay here again.

A peaceful place to stay with our dog

The place has everything you need. Its only a small stroll to the beach, which is dog friendly and has off leash times. Has an enclosed yard for doggies too. This is our second time staying here and will stay again.

A truly relaxing getaway

The house was very comfortable and perfectly set up- the pizza oven was a lot of fun and the location was very quiet and relaxing- I loved the front verandah!
