Great stay in quiet location
Enjoyed our stay. House equipped well for up to six guests. Photos need updating. Large dining table, couches, large flat screen with chrome cast and outdoor dining table with chairs was a pleasant surprise. Very comfortable and lovely quiet location near the beach.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Well, in short, the stay could not have been better for 3 long standing good friends competing with an EH Holden in what was quite a huge premier Historic event at the Phillip Island Race Circuit.Everything was just great however, could it be possible for the television to be working on more channels than the ABC. The V8 Touring cars also happened to be on that same weekend and unfortunately, the TV reception was very poor. Aside from this we were very comfortable and close to the track. Thank you very much and we look forward to staying with you again.Steve, Greg and Ian.
