A fantastic stay
We recently stayed here for a couple of days while attending a family reunion. We were so impressed with how clean & tidy the house was. Our 2 dogs thoroughly enjoyed playing & napping in the enclosed yard. The deck had a beautiful breeze which was lovely on the hot evenings. The location is fantastic, really close to everything. Our kids are keen to come & stay here again soon!

Short get away
Nice and close to shops. Very dog friendly. We enjoyed ourselves. Back deck is great to sit and relax hopefully soon the building behind will be finished and it will be nice and quiet again. This is no way the owners fault at all. Over all enjoyed our stay.

This compact little house was ideal for our recent stay. 3 adults and 2 children. Beds were super comfortable with nice quality linen supplied. Every eventuality was catered for e.g. several pedestal fans available, washing machine, BBQ, plenty of crockery, utensils etc as well as some condiments, wraps, detergent, insect sprays. Bathroom is equipped with shampoo, liquid soap, toilet paper, towels, face washers, mat. Board games were available. Downstairs laundry as well as a toilet, bikes and helmets, indoor and outside clothes lines. Immaculate yard. Beautiful back deck with comfy chairs, bbq, table. We can't recommend this place highly enough.

Great House but… unfortunate timing
Loved the immaculately kept property and dog friendly (except for the cane toads)… just not a very relaxing holiday stay environment with 3 construction sites (1 house renovation next door, and 2 apartment complexes across the road) starting work before 7am, with tradies’ utes and cars parked both sides of the road, so trying to get our own 4wd in and out of the driveway was pretty tight at times. TBH we wouldn’t have stayed there if we had known what was going on in the street. When booking, the hosts were very helpful, the shack was clean and neat inside, loved the serenity on the back deck once the work had stopped each day, great location close to the river and shops, only minor issue with the house itself was we couldn’t open the garage door (the handle unlocked and turned but we couldn’t lift it / open it).

Good property at Maroochydore
The property has everything you could want and the back deck is lovely with sea breezes. The street in front is full of parked cars all the time but it's nice and quiet out back. It is about a 5 minute walk to the river beach and Sunshine Plaza is nearby. Our visiting grandsons enjoyed the range of bikes to ride and our little dog was happy.
