Great location with beautiful views
The house was beautiful and well appointed. Gorgeous views from upstairs and only a 10 minute walk or 2 minute drive to Binalong bay beach. Our first night was a little cold with the downstairs panel heater on the blink, but our host provided extra heaters and blankets the next day. Above and beyond to make us comfortable. Would stay here again.

Amazing house with incredible views!
Recently stayed here for 2 nights and can't say enough great things about the place. Very modern, everything you need and awesome views of binalong bay. The house also includes a great rumpus room out the back with a pool table and bbq which was amazing. Stayed as couple but think place would more than suit a family get away. The location is amazing if your looking to get away from it all. Would stay here again in a heartbeat and will definitely reccomend to anyone wanted to stay in Bay of Fires.

Great position, view, cleanliness
Great spot, loved the view from the living room. Lovely new kitchen, big bathroom (though only one) and very comfy beds and linen and towels. Heating is excellent. Two great BBQs. House was immaculate. There is a little pool table in the garage, which we had fun with one wet afternoon. No complaints though it was a touch small for our group of 7 when weather bad and only one bathroom/toilet can be a challenge. Also the front deck is little, there's not a lot of comfy couch seating and there are only 6 of everything in the kitchen, which drove me nuts bc I was constantly washing up!

Lovely property. Binalong Bay is beautiful, but please be aware that there is no general store there and just one restaurant/cafe that had run out of almost everything on the menu. The house was great though!

Beautiful Location
The view from this property is amazing. An easy walk to beach & morning coffee. It was well equipped & Jan was at the end of the phone if you needed anything. The only down side (minor) was there is no loo upstairs - bit of a nuisance but that’s all. Also no Wifi which is unusual these days. Very enjoyable week.

Spectacular views
Fantastic property, photos to not do it justice! Only minor suggestions for improvement would be adding an AC unit in master bedroom. One very warm night we needed to spend half of it upstairs on the couches with the AC! Would also be great to have Wi-Fi available. Not something we think to check these days as used to it being a standard feature. All in all, we were very happy with the accommodation and would strongly recommend!

A Week Away With Teenagers..
The house is fantastic - Amazing views, very clean, kitchen well stocked for cooking, excellent separate space for teens to hang out with a pool table. Everything included that I needed for a week. Beach just 1 street away. For the adults, just perfect.... However, I didn't realise on booking there was no internet. OMG - teen angst lol... The only let down for me was the TV... With no internet, they provided a good range of DVDs', however the TV was such poor quality, it was so grainy to watch.. we tried watching 2 DVDs then gave up.

Wonderful position
The property was perfect for our group of four friends basing ourselves in The Bay of Fires. The outlook from the living area was over the Bay and there was ample comfortable seating . The inclusion of a coffee machine with plenty of coffee was a welcome addition. Unfortunately we were only there for two nights so didn't get to take full advantage of what was available to us.

Brilliant house and views
The view of the water is even better than the photos for the property. It is a five minute walk to the beach and the sand is so very white and the water clean and clear. Enjoyed the walk down to the beach and back each morning. The house is open and very well designed to allow for access to the views. Bed was comfortable and shower pressure good. Easy place to relax and enjoy yourself. The manager was easy to communicate with when we had an issue with TV batteries. Highly recommend and will tell friends and family. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.
