Great hosts! Top location!

Steve and Jackie really came through for us after the huge storms in Port Stephens left us without power. Such great hosts! Despite the wild weather the location of the house is perfect to enjoy Shoal Bay on a budget. Highly recommended!

This is an exceptionally well ordered holiday stay, perfect if you have a dog, within walking distance of the shops and sea front and designed for outdoor living. The bedrooms are small but the beds are very comfortable ( remember to bring your own sheets, pillow cases and towels). The kitchen has everything you could possibly want, though the absence of an indoor dining table makes things a little difficult when the weather is cold. All in all 95 out of 100.

Annual Shoal Bay friends catchup

Positives: Fabulous little cottage, very homely & comfortable. Large outdoor rear covered deck with BBQ & entertaining area. Good size backyard for our dog, who found the property very comfortable too. 5 min walk into town & beach. Undercover carport garage for your vehicle. Negatives: Can be a noisy road at times when we were sleeping mostly in the early morning being a residential area. Would be better with sheets & towels included in the price as other properties do include. Outside 2nd toilet should be available to use even with 3 people, states you must have 4 or more people.
