Keep it simple at this peaceful and centrally located shack set amongst the dunes. This lovely, recently renovated, beach house will take you back to those easy and relaxing weekends away all those years ago. The Tin Shack features 2 good-sized bedrooms and a cosy lounge with fireplace. The main bedroom has a queen size bed and baby cot. The other bedroom has a double and single bed configured as a bunk bed. The kitchen, with dishwasher, and bathroom have been recently renovated. Property also has a separate second toilet. Laundry with washing machine. Reverse cycle air-conditioners in living and main bedroom. The home also boasts a huge deck perfect for lazing around on after a swim at the beach, which is within walking distance along with the shops and local cafes. Your dog is more than welcomed inside the house. Whilst the property is not fully fenced, the expansive deck to the front and side of the house is fully secured, which will allow your dog to sit outside and observe the world below. Suggest bringing a good book as we don\`t have internet or make use of the numerous board games we have supplied. As we are on tank water, you will need to bring your own linen, including sheets, pillowcases, doona covers, towels, and tea towels. We provide doona\`s and pillows. As one of the cheapest houses available in Venus Bay it\`s not perfect. Some of the painting is a bit dodgy, the windows don\`t open and there is no wi-fi. Basically, you get what you pay for which in this case is a simple, basic, clean house to use as a base to explore the area.
