About this property

Time to relax!

The Shack on the Bay has all you need for your next relaxing holiday. Situated a short stroll from the Encounter Bay esplanade where you can grab your morning coffee and take in the beauty of south coast.

For those looking for some adventure, the surf beaches of Middleton, Parsons and Waitpinga are a short drive. Or maybe shopping is your thing, then make sure you drop in to Port Elliott.

Freshly renovated and styled. The Shack at the Bay has it all and it is waiting for you!

As you arrive at The Shack at the Bay you will instantly switch to vacation mode as the luscious garden invites you to create memories in the sun with loved ones. As you enter the house, an aesthetic design throughout each room gives you a sense of calm, making the transition to relaxation mode smooth sailing.

The fully equipped kitchen encompasses high quality appliances including an electric stove top, a double draw dishwasher, fan forced oven, and fridge/freezer. Most importantly, the coffee machine will ensure that all guests can easily get their cup of happiness to start an adventurous day. With a breakfast island also in the kitchen, there is no shortage of areas to enjoy your breakfast.

The living area includes a 50 inch smart TV and couches which comfortably seat a family. The dining table ensures that you and your family have the space to reflect on the day's activities together. Access to Netflix is provided for your enjoyment.

Down the passage is a laundry with a washing machine - not that you should be needing to use it... you're on a holiday! In the main bedroom is a queen size bed with the second room offering a bunk bed which sleeps three people. Both bedrooms have large windows overlooking the native garden where the birds frolic and further instill the holiday vibe. The bathroom facilities are neat and tidy with all the essentials; shower, bath, toilet, sink & a large mirror.

The shack has a 360 degrees surrounding garden that encompasses spacious lawns and native fauna. The sun can be felt all year round at different corners of the property, making it a playground for those young and old!

NOTE: No need to bring your own linen, it is a holiday after all. Fresh sheets and towels are provided.

Family Holiday
Very nice property, just a short walk to the foreshore and the Yilki store or Whalers Dining. Very comfortable house with a nice garden and lawn area for the kids to play. Kerry was a great host, responding and rectifying a minor issue straight away.

Beautiful place
What a beautiful place. It's full of light, cosy and welcoming. It was delightful to pack lightly, knowing that the place was so well set up. We had a great time and most definitely will be back. Thanks for setting up such a welcoming space.
