Culburra Beach

We had a great time. The house worked really well for a family group and was very safe for small children. The beaches were within easy reach and the local shops made it all easy. We would be very happy to go back.

Gone Fishing Culburra Beach

Ideal accomm for a large family group ( 8 adults, 4 kids) - or 2 smaller families. It was well appointed with nice linen and beautiful white towels, very clean, easy care floors. Just the place for a catch-up with my girls and their families after the various lockdowns over the last 2+ years. Highly recommend!

Family Get Together

Great location and place to stay with all the family and dog in the one place. Very clean and well maintained property. Beds and linen for everyone. All cooking utensils you need to have a great family dinner/meals. Kitchen had all we needed. Great to sit around the lounge room and play games & chat. Would recommend this property for a family get together or holiday. Was not sure about the fireplace & firepit as no info in the guest book and no wood on the property. Just used the air conditioner.

Loved the stay with few shortcomings

- A very good property when you have kids, the seperate studio with extra beds and TV was lovely. - the main property also is good but only 2 bedrooms have decent bed size - very close to beach and groceries which is a very big plus. Suggestion to the owners - being peak winter please keep some extra warm blankets accessible as not everyone is comfortable using aircon all day and also the aircon at the property takes way too long to heat. Also with more people allowed to stay, please consider providing a liquid dish washer as not always possible to load the dishwasher.

A tight squeeze

The pictures make the main house look bigger than it actually is. We stayed here with 10 adults, 1 teenager, 1 child and a dog. The main living and dining area was too small for all of us to sit together. Main bathroom was nice but the two extra bathrooms with showers were very small. The best feature was the location and backyard area - the weather was great so we enjoyed all our time outdoors and at the beach. I would recommend this property for families with small children rather than adults or family with adult or teenage children.

Large group

Great accommodation to host a large group with kids plus pets! Pros: Good size bedrooms, awesome garden and outdoor area, great entertainment choices (games, ping pong etc), wifi worked well, 10 min walk to the beach, well equipped kitchen, ducted aircon in the main and split system in the cabin, hot water held up, functional laundry. Cons: Dishwasher was a bit iffy, labeling light switches would be great, and those not used to an electric stove top might struggle a little bit Nonetheless we all had fun, great meals and a good sleep! :)

A Culburra Classic Beach Escape

Gone Fishing is in a really good central location as it is a short walk to the beach, penguin head, cafes and the local bowlo, it is also a short drive to some other main attractions like Callala Beach and Currarong. The setup of the house is great for outdoor activities and also things like ping pong and darts and is also great for just lazing on the lawn. Highly recommend it if you are looking for a nice and simple getaway from the city and having beaches basically to yourselves! The management of the property was also well communicated and easily contactable of any questions or issues.

Beautiful home

Our stay at Gone Fishing was a great experience. There was 3 familes sharing a beautiful home. The house was beautifully designed. The back room was freshly painted. There were lots of room for the parents and kids. They loved the table tennis and having their own room. Great location shops only 5mins away. Beaches 10 mins away. Quiet location. Owners made it feel like home and bottles of wine was a great touch. Cons were only a couple draws in the kitchen were hard to pull out. Definitely stay again!!
