Ultimate relaxation spot immediately next to beach
Well-presented and set-up for families, we had a wonderful time, and especially enjoyed using the kayak that was supplied (we had brought the kids' own as well). Only thing to note is that Google maps takes you to the wrong esplanade (on the other side of Toogoom, about 5 minutes away) - best to type in Moreton St and follow that through to the end.

Excellent Location overlooking Beelbi Inlet
Great little 3 bedroom place across the 'road' from Beelbi Creek overlooking the bay. Very relaxing watching the tide rise & fall making land appear & disappear. Some great fishing as well without a boat required. Fully stocked kitchen & good bathroom with great shower. FYI Lots of equipment, games & books for young children.

Great breach house
I stayed at Jack's Shack with my 2 little ones for 5 nights in Jan 2023. I was happy to discover that Woolworths in Hervey Bay deliver to Toogoom, so organised groceries to be delivered on the afternoon of our arrival. The house had everything we needed and more and had beautiful breezes throughout. I loved the serenity and tapping out from the hustle and bustle of every day life. We definitely hope to go back.

Beachfront and away from life's interruptions
We love Jack's Shack! The view of the ocean directly across the road is spectacular. It's not near any urban setting, just a small village. There's a cafe and restaurant just up the road but no major shops. Limited internet access. Perfect if you want to get away from it all.

Very comfortable. Kitchen well appointed. Layout user friendly & very open to allow appreciation of the views. Cycling distance to shop & kayak launching ramp not to far up the road. All in all, pretty good value for money.

A little bit of Paradise
Ideally located for a quiet time away from the shops, traffic and everyday rush, but close enough to everything for convenience. Beautiful views of the ocean across the road that changed constantly depending on tides. The accommodation was modern, very well appointed for any contingency. Not your standard limited utensils. It had everything you would need for a large family or for friends to visit. We loved and are already planning our next visit.
