Had a wonderful stay at The Shack. The house was a few minutes walk to the beach, spotlessly clean, modern and very quiet. The hosts had provided all you could need for a beach stay, the kitchen was well equipped, plenty of books and games available and lovely comfortable beds. Would thoroughly recommend

Had a fantastic time at the house, its very family friendly, would be great if the decking had fencing for the little ones but overall would definitely stay again. The location is great and a very quiet neighbourhood, only a short walk to a wonderful beach.

A return visit for us and we will be back. The place has had a refresh since our last visit and it both looks great and works well. While the rooms are on the small side, it is one of the best equipped places we have stayed in. Lovely outdoor spaces and a great location 3 min walk from a magnificent beach. Great response from owners when we had a plumbing issue on New Year's Eve - they organised for it to be fixed within the hour.

Relaxing stay by the beach

Great relaxing stay by the beach at this beachside shack for a short getaway and the weather was fantastic for it too which meant great afternoons on the back deck in the sun.Close walk to the beach Appreciated the owners consideration of allowing us to stay with our elderly trained dog that didn’t quite meet the listed requirements Will definitely stay here again as the shack had everything one needs as does the Main Street and also close driving distance to Victor Harbour and Goolwa.
