This is a nice shack in a tranquil spot but we were so disappointed by the misleading photos. Be aware some photos are from another property (see below). It is correctly listed as a small 3 bedroom property, it does not have 4 nice twin beds. There is a double bed, 2 single beds and the 2 single bunks in a tiny (not very nice) room. There is 1 lounge/TV area, not 2 as per pictures. We booked with our family of 7, there is bedding for 8 but only 3 bedrooms so son had to sleep on fold out bed in lounge room (would not have booked if realised). It is far but nice to go down Port Arthur way, Tasmanian Devil Unzoo etc. Overall pretty clean and has things needed but just a basic small 3 bedroom shack, was expensive for our family when we realised how small it was. Hammock on deck is nice. Rooms in pictures but totally not at this property: Pic 4 (bunks with a DB mattress and SB mattress) Pic 6 (sea doona bed) Pic 10 (long room with bunks at end & round table) Pic 11 (with lounges/sea pics on walls) Pic 14 (2nd bathroom)

Nice and quiet place. Comfortable enough. The third room was really small and not really comfortable. My son had to move out and sleep on the couch due to heaps of millipedes but they were everywhere. Not sure if that's just the conditions. The water is not swimmable so don't be mislead. A long way from anything but still heaps to do and look at in the surrounding area. The corner store is pretty good and has got most things. We were there during the virus and things were very different so it's hard to really judge. Be prepared to do lots of driving.

Lovely little property. The only thing we were disappointed with was that lots of people commented in the guest book about the wild animals that come out at night but we never saw any!!

Small/cosy property, worth excellent water views and short walk to the local jetty and water. Not many shops or amenities close by, only rank water onsite. Advertised to fit over 8 people, however it will only fit 6 comfortably. Little thing like: no toilet paper or tea bag onsite was annoying. Fantastic location and a nice place to stay if your are after a simple house in a great location

The house is old and not well cleaned at all. (There was no service so the service rating isn't correct.)
