Monica Street Tootgarook

We had a very pleasant stay. Everything was clean and tidy. After a storm one of the power points went out. The owners were kind enough to send their son down with extension cords so we could still use the microwave and tv. Thanks very much for a wonderful relaxing holiday

Brilliant deck & close to everything

We had a lovely holiday - the deck and BBQ set up was fabulous and the air conditioning and fans were great - the house was super tidy and had everything we needed. The section is steep but there’s flat space out the back which works for kids. Superb little cafe only 3 mins away too! Thank you for having us!

Our stay at decked out on the peninsula

We had a great time at Kaz' s property. It's definitely great value for money. This property has great views and a perfect entertaining area out on the deck. There is a milk bar a short walk that provides all your needs. I would definitely recommend this property.

Fantastic location, clean and quiet

Had a great stay - location was fantastic. Great little coffee shop and milk bar 100 metres away and a perfect no through road for our children to ride their bikes and play cricket. House was very clean and provided lots of little extras. The only suggestion I would make is that the locks on the doors weren't very safe - the flyscreen doors did not lock at all and the door locks weren't very strong. In addition, the instructions for using the tv were complicated, requiring three remotes to use it. My suggestion would be to simply have one remote for the tv.

Clean, comfortable and great deck!

We had a great weekend at this property. It is in a nice and quiet location, still close enough to walk to shops and beach. House is lovely and clean and the deck is the highlight. The owner (Kaz) was easy to deal with, even volunteering to separate the bunks for us. Highly recommend to pay extra for the linen as when you get there the beds are made up for you. Will definitely look to come back again.

Wonderful deck and clean house on a hill

We had a lovely stay at Decked out on the Peninsula. The location was really good, we explored the wineries in the area and drove down the coast while we were there! The deck was wonderful to enjoy a glass or two of wine. The house was clean and had everything we could need for a weekend away. I have just had ankle surgery and I'm not mobile enough to bring my own linen and make the beds. The owner provided linen and made the beds at a cost of $30 per bed - taken out of my deposit. If I stayed again, I'd definitely bring my own linen as it ended up costing a lot more than I originally expected.
