Jacks Shack a comfortable place to stay.

Old style place with wooden floor boards. Industrial type furnishings. well appointed kitchen. 3 doors from the Harwood pub. Outstanding pub meals. For the boaters there is a boat ramp directly across from the Shack. A great place to stay.

Jacks shack

Very relaxing. Good food at the pub. Great location if you want to avoid the busy coast but close enough if you want to enjoy a walk on the beach. Mosquitoes were bad this time of year.

Classy clean and comfortable

Jack's Shack was lovely with high end finishes throughout. Kitchen was missing pepper and salt and it would be great if mugs were included for hot drinks. Otherwise, sheer perfection. Thank you Grant and Mel.

Hi Nicole I am glad you enjoyed your stay, sorry about the salt and pepper issue. There are coffee cups in the cupboard above the kettle along with coffee pods, sugar etc. Cheers Grant and Mel
