This was our second time staying here and it was just as good as the first. Annette is easy to communicate with and everything runs smoothly.The house has everything you need, the beds are comfortable, and the backyard is neat and secure for dogs. It’s in a nice quiet area, and the location is great, especially being so close to the water park for the kids.We’d happily stay again.

Annette was a great host and the property did not disappoint. It is hard finding a place for children and pets that is clean with everything you need, but not in this case. The house was clean, beds were comfortable, the kitchen had every cooking utensil you could ask for, and the kids absolutely loved the place. We will definitely be back. Thank you Annette

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.
