Great time at Indented Heads

The property had absolutely everything we could have needed in a very handy location to the beach. It was great to be able to take our dogs with us - they also had a great time. We're considering booking again next year such was the great time we had!

Not Recommended

Issue with possums or rats thundering around the roof at night, keeping us awake, left their poop droppings on back deck & table. Bedrooms had urine smell in them. Had to clean microwave, fridge & benches prior to use, Wouldn't use dishwasher. Property has huge potential if it wasn't dirty. It was spacious, ideal location & decorated nicely. Both security doors were unlock-able, all surfaces were covered in black dirt, linen was stained, we were told to take our own. Very lucky we did. Black filth under plastic kitchen bin liner, Cobwebs hanging like curtains on outside of home.

Great location

Great location, a short walk to the beach. Location felt safe and secure, quiet neighbourhood. Friendly and easy to communicate with property owner. House was clean, and kitchen well equipped. Plenty of games and movies too to keep the kids entertained. Advertised as having a cot, unfortunately couldn't find.

Chill out at Indented Head.

Our family loved the comfortable home with plenty of room to move & relax. Proximity to the beach & general store was absolutely ideal. We walked, fished, cycled & swam, then enjoyed family BBQ’s on the back porch. Definitely a return destination! Cheers, Lauraine & Geoff

Great house with nice yard for dogs

Loved staying at this house at a quiet place close to the beach. We went for a weekend away with friends and their dog (two couples, three dogs in total) and felt this house was the perfect base for us. It has a decent-sized, fully-fenced garden where the dogs could run around. The interior of the house is dated, but for us that didn't matter. We had a great time - thanks so much!
