About this property
Lil Blue Surf Shack, family and pet friendly
Welcome to Lil' Blue Surf Shack, a charming and cozy beach retreat on Aldam Ave, Goolwa Beach. Perfect for young families or couples to enjoy time away together. This updated 1950's original features three bedrooms, a freshly renovated bathroom, a funky vintage kitchen, and a huge fully fenced yard. Enjoy walking to the beach or driving along the sand to the mouth of the Murray River for a unique coastal experience.
Experience the laid-back charm of Lil' Blue Surf Shack, a delightful holiday rental located within walking distance of Goolwa Beach. Perfect for young families, this home has everything you need for a relaxing escape. With three comfortable bedrooms—two with queen beds and one with a tri-bunk (double bed below and single above)—the house sleeps up to seven guests. All bed linen and bathroom towels are provided but please bring your own beach towels.
The freshly renovated bathroom and separate toilet add a modern touch, while the vintage original 1950s kitchen is both functional and full of character. Original polished timber floors and a slow combustion fireplace ensure cozy vibes, especially during cooler months. Outside, the huge fully fenced yard provides a safe space for children and dogs to play freely.
The beach is just a short stroll away, and adventurers will love the opportunity to take their 4WD onto the sand and drive along the beach to the mouth of the iconic Murray River.
While staying at Lil' Blue Surf Shack, explore the local area with its array of activities and dining options. Nearby, you’ll find Kuti Shack and Café Bombora, both known for their fresh, local flavors, or venture into Goolwa town to enjoy charming cafés and bakeries. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy kayaking, surfing, or cycling along the Encounter Bikeway. For a slice of history, visit the Goolwa Wharf Precinct, take a ride on the Cockle Train, or explore the Coorong National Park.
Whether you’re seeking beachside fun, great food, or simply a place to unwind, Lil' Blue Surf Shack offers the perfect blend of comfort and adventure.
