Excellent place love to go again.

Our 1st holiday stay away with our fur baby. Excellent home. Pet Friendly and super garden area for our Daisy fully dog proof. Very quiet area close to beach and General Store. Home was super clean and you want for nothing. Excellent communication with home owner and credit to owner for such a well equiped home.

The Boat House Moonta Bay

The house was very well equipped & spotless. The assortment of kitchen appliances was amazing, we only hoped for a kettle & toaster but found so much more. The beds were very comfortable & cozy. Our two night there was way too short & we intend to return for a longer stay. The only downside was the damp,windy weather.

Awesome pet friendly getaway

If you own more than one dog, you would know that places like this are rare. Not only are you allowed more than one dog, but they can also come inside! The backyard is a great space for the dogs to run around and the beach is just down the road. The property does have neighbours so keep this in mind if you wish to leave your dogs at home and they are not used to noises. Overall a really nice place, easy place to stay and relax.

About the host

Hosted by Annette Medlin

Host profile image
Were from Adelaide and absolutely love Moonta Bay. Since we enjoy it so much, we love sharing our house so others can experience it too. While we are there we make the most of the golf, fishing and have a occasional trip to the pub for a pint and punt day thanks to the courtesy bus at the Moonta Bay or Port hughes Hotels.

Why they chose this property

Our small and very quiet street that looks across at trees. There are only 10 homes in our street and we are only 700 meters to the beach. The golf course and boat ramp are only 2 km away. So everything is very close.

What makes this property unique

The Boat House is walking distance to the beach We do allow dogs on request only. We have a lovely big back yard for either your children or your dogs to play in. Also under cover sercure parking for large boats and a fishing cleaning staion. 2 living areas both with TV's so the childen can be seperate from the adluts watching a movie or playing a game. Also 2 bathrooms and 3 bedrooms. BUT WE DO NOT HAVE WIFI.
