Selective use of screens, border trees and the surrounding forest create a sense of complete privacy. A hot/cold outdoor shower is well positioned beside the back decks. Keeping warm or keeping cool? The Black Shack has reverse cycle air-conditioning in the main space, comfortably heating or cooling the entire home. There is also a ceiling fan in the master bedroom.

However our otherwise perfect experience was marred by lack of maintainance and other niggly little things that if fixed would make this a 10 out of 5 review. Our biggest gripe was on arrival our wagon got stuck on the concrete footpath because there is a 100mm drop off from footpath to the gravel driveway. Had to find some rocks to make a ramp.Wouldn't be a problem for an SUV or 4wd but for normal cars it is a real issue. We had to use the 2nd bedroom as a place to lay out our clothes as there is no wardrobe or hanging space anywhere. BBQ was grotty and slow because one burner is clagged up. The bedroom roller blind is a booby trap that fell down on my wifes foot and there are nails sticking up everywhere on the back deck that need to be replaced with screws.French door key in knob cheapies not very secure and the bottom bolt in the bedroom is broken. The bar fridge struggled on a 32 degree day.(Tip: leave the fridge cupboard door ooen to let it cool easier) Air con struggled too. We would have liked to open windows so we could enjoy the coastal breeze and sound of waves at night but most of them have been nailed shut and there are NO flyscreens. The replica Hans Wegner chairs look nice but we were scared to sit on them in case we bumped into the fish vase. Its a 5 star review from me only because of what it is and where it is. Sunrises filtered through the ancient gums are to die fo ##### Wayne A. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Charles A. 11 Feb 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Superb Location We enjoyed our short stay at the Black Shack, everything worked well, good showers with strong water pressure both inside and out, a comfortable bed and Netflix on TV, though strangely no ABC. The location is superb just a short walk from the garden to the beach. Two tips for future renters, the air con needs to be switched on, on the bottom of the unit, and the Salty Crab, (next to the mega Woolworths, a 10 minute drive), is an exceptional take-out for up-market Fish and Chips, though if you don’t want to wait you should phone your order in advance, it closes at 6.30pm. Stylish décor and furnishings but some might find the all black inside as well as outside a little oppressive. Nearly everything black is perhaps the triumph of style over practicality. A $55 penalty if the cleaners have to empty the dishwasher seems to be tough love. Are Cleaners really that well paid in Hyams Beach? In conclusion we would be very happy to go back, though we would avoid Australia Day, when Hyams Beach was exceptionally busy. ##### Charles A.
