The fantastic self-contained holiday unit accommodation offered by Island Point Getaway is situated on the north side of St Georges Basin, a large coastal lake which connects to the sea via Sussex Inlet, just south of Nowra (160km south of Sydney) near Jervis Bay. All the attractions of the South Coast of NSW, and the Shoalhaven region in particular, are close by.
Property Description
The unit is situated on the ground floor of a large block,as the owner lives upstairs, far from the quiet street, so traffic noise is never a problem. Access is via an all-weather driveway, and there is plenty of room for parking your cars (and boats). Your boat can be moored at my private jetty, which can also be used for swimming and fishing. The water access, private boat ramp and jetty make Island Point Getaway the perfect location for fishermen, boating enthusiasts or kayak paddlers. A concrete drive-way leads down to your accommodation, and the concrete boat ramp at the end gives access to the waters of St Georges Basin. The Basin connects to the sea via Sussex Inlet, so fishermen can choose to fish the secluded waters of "the Basin", Sussex Inlet, Bherwerre or Cudmirrah Beaches. Location
The master bedroom sleeps two in a queen size bed, while the second bedroom has 2 single beds.Perfect for family holidays. The unit is air conditioned and has a 55 inch smart TV. In the main room plus a smaller one in the master bedroom. There are also 2 kayaks available for hire for $20 a day each including life jackets or just tie your boat up at my private jetty or throw a line in straight off the end. 500 metres up the road is the St Georges Basin shopping centre, which includes a post office, general store, fish and chip shop, video store, hotel and bottle shop or catch the courtesy bus to the country club and have a round of golf at our 18 hole golf course or enjoy a meal and a cold drink.

We had an absolutely amazing time at Island Point Getaway! Waking up to beautiful views everyday was so relaxing and our kids just loved being able to Canoe and fish from the Jetti.Not to mention our Border Collie puppy was super happy, and he made a great friend with Max!Thanks John for being a great host!
It was a very convenient location very impressive set up on the water John was a wonderful host very helpful to my friends I would recommended this property to anyone looking for a fantastic holiday
This was the second time I stayed at John's accomodation, directly at the lake. Love it there, so quiet and beautiful. Can highly recommend for a getaway!
Brilliant stay here for a weekend recently. John was a fantastic host, communicated very well and met us on arrival which was lovely. We had our dog with us who absolutely loved being near the water, got on super well with John's dog Max and we felt very safe having him there. Property was clean and comfortable and exactly what we expected. Very quiet and peaceful location and perfect for what we needed. Will definitely be back.
Absolutely beautiful relaxing weekend away for our anniversary.John was great when we arrived he and his dog Mac welcomed us extremely helpful with absolutely everything. The house was relaxing had everything we needed. We spent most of the day out in the boat which was easy to put in the water as all we had to do was reverse the boat down the driveway straight into the water and than dock it next to the jetty which made everything so easy. Thankyou again John we will definitely be back.
We had a wonderful week staying at John's property, amenities as described, close to beaches and bays. Friendly doggie. Hopefully we will be back again.

Peaceful location with a beautiful outlook to the water in your backyard, but also close to all Jervis Bay has to offer. We had a wonderful week and the property was as advertised. John was the perfect host and made us feel a part of the family.
The perfect spot for boating and fishing, no matter the weather! Caught the best size Bream and Flatheads from the wharf. Will be bringing the boat next time. Great views and relaxation areas. John is a perfect host, most welcoming with great tips for the surrounding areas.Enjoyed shopping in Huskisson, eating at all the surrounding clubs
Just perfect. Peace and quiet with no traffic noise. We only stayed 2 nights and will stay a lot longer next time

Quoc and his family were the perfect guests.Very polite and considerate and treated the unit like it was their own.They are welcome back any time and have no hesitation recommending them to other property managers.
Excellent! Fulfilled our holiday brief of pet friendly, private and waterfront. Accommodation was just perfrect for us, with all amenities available. Location was ideal; close to shops etc. Day trips were easy as central to larger centres.John was the penultimate host; gracious, accommodating and just the nicest person.Looks like its our new happy place!
My family and I spent 5 glorious days at John's place. John looked after us as though we were an extention of his family - taking us out on his boat and introducing us to his neighbours.
It was such a treat after a busy morning at the beach to come back in the afternoons and relax on the dock and watch the waterskiing, the occassion storm rolling in and the fish and sting ray. We'd love to come back!
