    We liked everything about the Shack! It is a down-to-earth original (historic) bach and we felt transported back in time. It has all the original things you need such as comfy kitchen, beds, etc, but also a touch of a past when seaside houses were...

Property information

This little escape is all about memories. Remember those simple beach days and the tiny, fun, casual beach shack that was home for the summer? Now you can recapture that feeling with The Shack. A classic 50s beach cabin that instantly transports you to oversized beach towels, foam eskies, and beach umbrellas with frills. Situated near beautiful Skenes Creek and a short walk to ‘Skenies’ beach, you can relax and recapture youthful days by washing the sand off your feet under the front yard tap. Important: Full Payment is required upon reservation. Please be advised we do not accept payments onsite.
