Great place and great people, was told a little late on how to get the key to lock up but got it eventually. Great pet friendly place. We where the first to bring my elderly cat with us and they where more then welcoming to have her stay as well. Will stay again if im with the family again.

We have stayed at Drake Street before and will definitely stay again. The property is extremely clean, well appointed and located in the best place for relaxing walks. We brought our dog and enjoyed the off leash area and the walking paths at the end of the street. It's awesome!

Convenient getaway

Stayed at the house for 7 days with the family and dog. Had a fantastic time. The place was clean, quiet, had all the facilities required and is extremely close to local shops. Mark was extremely accommodating providing us with an extra dog bowl, beach cart and local knowledge.

Great location

A wonderful place to stay and owners were just fabulous going above and beyond for us. Dog park near the house, beach and boat ramp and club for dinner just across from the dog park. Supermarkets 1.5km in either direction…. Really don’t even need a car. Would definitely stay here again if available when coming to the Sunshine Coast.
