Hi Emily, So glad you had a good time. It is a wonderful house, close to the beach and restaurant, with amazing views. See you next time I hope!
This property was clean, spacious, well equipped and in a quiet location with amazing views. The only negative was the lack of wifi, which made keeping up to date with travel arrangements awkward.
Was 2 blocks back from the beach, easy walking, modern and clean. It was a bit tricky with poor or non existent internet, as we have a business still to manage on holidays but otherwise highly recommend!

Super! That's what we like to hear. Happy guests enjoying our beautiful Beach Shack. Hope you enjoyed the brand new modern deck furniture and BBQ on the upper deck! See you next time. Cheers
The house was beautiful and well appointed. Gorgeous views from upstairs and only a 10 minute walk or 2 minute drive to Binalong bay beach.
Our first night was a little cold with the downstairs panel heater on the blink, but our host provided extra heaters and blankets the next day. Above and beyond to make us comfortable.
Would stay here again.

Amazing house with incredible views!
Recently stayed here for 2 nights and can't say enough great things about the place. Very modern, everything you need and awesome views of binalong bay. The house also includes a great rumpus room out the back with a pool table and bbq which was amazing. Stayed as couple but think place would more than suit a family get away. The location is amazing if your looking to get away from it all. Would stay here again in a heartbeat and will definitely reccomend to anyone wanted to stay in Bay of Fires.

Thanks. The house is very close to everything the Bay of Fires has to offer. Come stay and enjoy the experience
We had such a lovely weekend, stunning blue sky mid winter days and a sparkling sea. The house was beautifully clean and welcoming. Spacious and well equipped kitchen, lots of room and huge windows in living areas overlooking houses and the beach. I loved the thoughtfully placed smaller windows and skylights making the most of different views. Being elevated, the house looks out into tree canopies. Exceeded expectations.

Great position, view, cleanliness
Great spot, loved the view from the living room. Lovely new kitchen, big bathroom (though only one) and very comfy beds and linen and towels. Heating is excellent. Two great BBQs. House was immaculate. There is a little pool table in the garage, which we had fun with one wet afternoon. No complaints though it was a touch small for our group of 7 when weather bad and only one bathroom/toilet can be a challenge. Also the front deck is little, there's not a lot of comfy couch seating and there are only 6 of everything in the kitchen, which drove me nuts bc I was constantly washing up!

Yes, the property is only set up for 6 guests, this guest requested a 7th (a child) so we obliged as there was no where else not booked out. We recommend it for 6 guests maximum, and with only the one bathroom (large though it may be), it really is best suited to families if 6 guests are staying. Thank you for leaving the property so clean and tidy, that was appreciated.
We loved your property at Binalong Bay. It was so peaceful and quiet with magnificent views. The house was very comfortable with a lovely modern feel and had everything needed for a quiet relaxing holiday. Would definitely stay again.
Great location looking over the water. The house is current and spacious. Has everything u need for a getaway.
Not far from popular tourist attractions.
Lovely property. Binalong Bay is beautiful, but please be aware that there is no general store there and just one restaurant/cafe that had run out of almost everything on the menu. The house was great though!
The view from this property is amazing. An easy walk to beach & morning coffee. It was well equipped & Jan was at the end of the phone if you needed anything. The only down side (minor) was there is no loo upstairs - bit of a nuisance but that’s all. Also no Wifi which is unusual these days. Very enjoyable week.
