About this property
A new coastal home to relax & escape to, on the beautiful Yorke Peninsula in SA.
The Mooring - A new family friendly coastal retreat home located one street back from the quiet beach (100m to the beach) & calm squid filled waters of Marion Bay. The gateway (5 min drive) to Dhilba Guuranda-Innes National Park, where you will find emus, kangaroos, shipwrecks, dolphins & many beautiful beaches to explore, as well as the historic township of Inneston, lighthouses & Stenhouse Bay jetty.
The Mooring is only a 500m walk to the Marion Bay Jetty, Tavern & General Store.
This new 4 bedroom (7 beds, sleeping 10 people) costal retreat is a place you can enjoy relaxing in or using as a base to explore the bottom end of the Yorke Peninsula. With 2 living areas, 2 TVs (1 with Satellite TV) & 2 bathrooms. The beach end of the house is a spacious open plan living & dining area with a fully equipped kitchen. The second living area is strategically located at the opposite end of the home & is a sun filled retreat.
There is a large undercover deck at the rear with a BBQ, cane lounges & festoon lighting. It’s the spot to sit & relax, drink your coffee whilst the sun rises & enjoy the sea views over to Kangaroo Island. Whilst the smaller front deck with tiered steps, is the perfect spot to view the setting sun & enjoying a nice cold drink.
You can choose to either relax & take it easy or use the home as a base to get out & about, to surf, swim, walk the Yorke, fish or explore what other locations on the Yorke has to offer.
Being in such a beautiful part of the world, comes with one small price – no mains water. The Mooring’s water (as with all properties in Marion Bay) is provided purely by what the rain tanks capture. We therefore ask that you are mindful of your water use whilst staying here.
There is a fish cleaning facility outside, please dispose of the waste thoughtfully & do not store bait in the fridge or freezer.
If you have forgotten to bring items or need to top up your supplies, the Marion Bay General Store will have the key essentials you will need.
The Mooring is a wonderful choice for family, friends or even couples to escape to.

The house was clean and tidy with everything you needed. The beds were comfy and it was close to the beach. It was great to have a tumble dryer.I loved the photos of what was in the cupboards. Handy for keeping everything where it belongs.
Great views of the ocean, walking distance to the jetty and cafe, entrance to Innes national park included, two bunk beds stop my two boys from arguing. Plus amazing hosts who helped us on many occasions really going above beyond!
The house has been thoughtfully furnished so everything you need is available. It is really clean - it felt like a new build. Very quiet at night and a perfect place to visit the national park. The water is across the road and whilst we didn’t swim it made for some lovely beach walks. The owners have gone to a lot of effort to make it a comfortable stay - great communication and a relaxing home.
This property was modern, comfortable and very clean. The check in process was very easy. The owners were very accommodating and great with their communications. Would definitely recommend this property.
Everything about our stay was fantastic! Communication with our hosts was very prompt and helpful, the beach views from the balcony were beautiful, and everything was in close proximity. The property came exactly as described and had everything we needed. We would definitely recommend!
Communication from the hosts was on time and without me needing to make first contact. Everything we needed to know was in the information they sent, place was incredibly clean, and close to the beach for kids to go down there by themselves. We had a very easy and relaxing stay.
We had such a fabulous long weekend at Craig and Tamara’s Marion Bay home. A large house great for families or groups of friends. Fantastic location in the heart of Marion Bay. We would stay there again in a heartbeat!
We had an absolutely stunning stay here! The property itself was spotless and beautifully maintained, with everything feeling fresh and welcoming. The views were gorgeous and made the whole trip feel so relaxing and special.The hosts went above and beyond with their instructions — even including photos inside each cabinet showing where everything belongs, which made tidying up at the end of our stay so easy. Such a thoughtful touch!The location was peaceful yet close enough to the general store, Tavern and nearby attractions, making it super convenient. The kitchen was well equipped, and everything we needed was easy to find.We loved every minute of our stay and would absolutely come back again. Highly recommend!
Craig and Tamara were amazing hosts and easy to communicate with all throughout our stay. The rental is clean and has everything you need with amazing views. It’s well located, only a few meters to the steps that go onto the beach and not far from the general store and tavern. Highly recommend.
Our family had a wonderful and relaxing holiday. The house was clean, beds comfortable and it had all the amenities that we needed. We would highly recommend.
Enjoyed a wonderful get away at Marion Bay. The accommodation is excellent. Spacious & very clean. Good amenities. Great communication with the owners. Very happy to recommend this property.
