About this property

Boathouse : Surrounded by Water, Wrapped in Nature

A Waterfront Escape on St Georges Basin

Wake to water at your doorstep in this beautifully converted boathouse, perfectly positioned right on the shoreline of Erowal Bay — a peaceful village on the pristine St Georges Basin. Surrounded by water and nature, this fully self-contained studio offers uninterrupted, expansive views across the basin, your own private deck, and a jetty just steps away.

By day, enjoy the ever-changing blues of the water; by night, marvel at star-filled skies reflected on the basin below. Evenings are made for sunset drinks on the deck as the sky ignites with colour and the calm of nature sets in. Kangaroos, native birds and the occasional echidna are frequent visitors, making this an idyllic retreat for water and nature lovers alike.

Comfort & Style Inside

The boathouse is thoughtfully appointed for a relaxed stay and features:
• A luxurious king-size bed
• Comfortable lounge area and spacious dining space
• Fully equipped kitchen
• Bathroom with shower and vanity

Just a few steps outside, within a fully fenced area, is a separate toilet. The expansive deck includes a BBQ, outdoor dining table and chairs, plus sun loungers — perfect for soaking up the view. Fresh linen and towels are provided, and while there is no on-site laundry, laundering can be arranged if needed. Stay connected with internet access and Netflix, or simply unplug and watch life unfold on the water.

A Playground on the Water

The waterfront is your playground, ideal for swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking, sailing, boating and water skiing. A private mooring sits alongside the jetty for guests bringing their own boat, with a public boat ramp just a few hundred metres away. Tennis courts, bush walks and scenic strolls are all within easy walking distance — once you arrive, there’s little need to drive.

Explore the Best of Jervis Bay

Nearby attractions abound, including:
• Huskisson’s vibrant cafes, shops, restaurants, museum and historic cinema
• Dolphin and whale-watching tours
• Vincentia Shopping Village and Aquatic Centre
• The dazzling white sands of Hyams Beach
• Renowned surf beaches such as Caves and Murray’s Beach
• Booderee National Park, featuring botanical gardens and bushwalks with breathtaking coastal views

Golf courses, clubs and local pubs are all just minutes away.

Pet-Friendly & Welcoming

Your well-behaved dog is welcome to join you, with the property fully fenced for peace of mind. Pets are not permitted on furniture, so please bring your dog’s own bedding. Dogs must be well trained, respectful of neighbours, and mindful of the surrounding wildlife.

The owners live on the property and warmly welcome guests. They are available should you need assistance, while always respecting your privacy.

Something a Little Different

For guests seeking a creative touch to their stay, art workshops can be arranged on request. Learn to draw or paint in relaxed, hands-on sessions hosted by the proprietor, an experienced art teacher — a perfect way to add something special to your holiday.

Very beautiful, very comfortable, very quiet loaction and set up.Excellent for a relaxing get away, close enough to all the tourists attractions to be enjoyed and far enough away for the tourists areas to enough your own space, the absolute best of both worlds.Would definitely recommend, it is the nicest place that we have stayed at in the Jarvis Bay region.Also the host family are very nice, friendly and accommodating.

Comfortable Private Waterfront

The property is a very private waterfront cottage with all required amenities. Great location and host was very hospitable. Kangaroos on dawn & dust and the sound of the water lapping at your doorstep. Great location to explore the local area - highly recommended.

A perfect getaway for some much needed rest and recovery!

Friendly, welcoming hosts, a great location "away from the hustle & bustle" but with everything you could want conveniently located nearby. Plenty of interesting places to explore as well. The boathouse is the very definition of relaxation. My partner, myself and our little fur baby, all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning again as soon as possible.

Bliss by the Bay!

We had such a peaceful and refreshing time staying at the boathouse in Erowal Bay. Stunning outlook, great facilities, very comfortable bed. There are lots of things to do nearby but I was pretty tempted to just stay out enjoying the views and relaxation. Maria and Ian made our stay easy and we hope to visit again.

Tranquil hideaway

Cosy boathouse with a lovely view, very friendly hosts. Highlights for us were the kangaroos and that amazing comfy bed only thing missing was an oven and maybe a toilet inside but apart from that a perfect getaway. We will definitely stay again.
