Beach House - direct 2-min access to the beach

Depot Beach is described by Lonely Planet as one of the top 10 beaches in Australia, recognising its white sands, gentle waves, national park location, rainforest setting and impressive coastal views. Depot Beach is a small community of only 50 homes on a peninsula surrounded by the sea on three sides, so it enjoys warm summers and mild winters.

6 Depot Beach Road has the most ultra desirable position of the township. With most guests providing a 5 star rating, the two storey elevated beach house was designed for that special holiday experience or romantic getaway. With glorious northerly beach views of Depot and Pebbly Beaches, direct access to the beach is an easy 2 minute stroll through the grey gum and cycad forest opposite the house.

Only 3 hours from Sydney and two hours from Canberra, the security-coded access means that there is no need to pick up keys prior to arrival. The community cupboard is well stocked with essentials.

The beach house offers first class accommodation for up to 6 guests. With 3 large bedrooms (2 x queen and 2 x single beds), two bathrooms, large sun-drenched balcony overlooking the beach and large undercover rear deck with gourmet BBQ, The four car garage includes amenities such as table tennis and darts and houses a range of canoes and kayaks which are available for guest use on Durras Lake. An extensive range of paperbacks and over 200 DVD movies are available. For those who want to stay connected, free wireless internet is available.

The kitchen is well equipped for the perfect gourmet meal. A real bonus for the majority of the year is the back yard lime tree which bears delicious fruit - perfect for that relaxing cocktail or cold Corona beer.

Located in the heart of the Murramarang National Park, the beach house is a great location no matter the time of year. Year round great hiking, kayaking, snorkeling, swimming and fishing is available. In winter the annual whale migration and many South Coast festivals, markets and wineries are great attractions.

In one of the most pristine national parks on the NSW coast, Depot Beach is a photographers' and animal enthusiasts' delight. Be entertained by the many birds, including King Parrots that visit the balcony each day or watch the playful kangaroos and their joeys feed on the front lawn. Dolphins cruise the beaches and the headland is a great whale viewing spot during the annual winter migration.

Depot Beach is a calm family-friendly beach and the rock shelf around the headland provides great snorkelling and fishing. The walk over the headland to North Durras Beach and the lake is spectacular and complimented by the great coffee available at the Nth Durras Cafe and General Store.

The calming effect of the Depot Beach environment is intoxicating. However, whatever the season or weather, there are a range of activities, including numerous coastal walks, available for those wanting to venture further afield. At Batemans Bay, browse through the shopping arcades or the many great waterfront restaurants. Local farmers' markets together with the craft shops in Mogo provide hours of fun and don't forget to visit the famous Mogo Zoo. For the golf enthusiast, great courses exist in Mollymook and Batemans Bay. Local wineries offer superb food to complement their annual vintages which are showcased at the Shoalhaven Wine Festival held each June long weekend.

Lovely clean house just a couple of minutes walk to a really nice beach.
We stayed with our two children 5 & 3 and the house was perfect. It had everything we needed (except a hairdryer but no big issue). The house is all laid out upstairs, so it gave us some nice views also. We had kangaroos on the lawn every evening and the beautiful king parrots and lorikeets came by several times too. Very friendly birds and the kids loved feeding them. We had a slight issue but the owners were so responsive to fix the issue, lovely people. The beds were so comfortable. We didn’t get to use the ping pong table or kayaks this time but next time we come back, we hope to. You are about 20 mins from Batemans Bay but it’s a lovely drive in & out of the national park. The town was very busy so it was hard to find a cafe to eat but we did go the club as you drive along the marina and it was lovely there. Overall a lovely stay.

Depot Beach is a magic place
We had a beautiful time over the Christmas period, even with some rolling thunderstorms and, at times, torrential rain to contend with. Regardless of the weather, Depot Beach is a magic place. Our accommodation was very comfortable and spacious, and with great views, sounds of rolling waves and lots of kangaroos and bird life, all made for a very enjoyable stay.

Great house and location but...
This house and location are great. We loved the wildlife and the very short walk to the beach and rocks! it was our favorite stay during our trip and it would have received a 5 star review from me but just a few days before our stay, when we were already on our 10 day holiday, the manager reached out with the check in information. That is when he notified us that we would have to bring our own bath towels and sheets for the beds. I e stayed inany VRBO rentals though I have never seen a rental require the renties to bring their own bath towels and sheets. I hadn't seen this requirement in the description of the house prior to reserving it and was not expecting another cost in order to stay at the house. I asked him if he could help us out this time by providing towels and sheets and he said no. Then I asked if he could refund us for the expense having having to purchase our own towels and sheets and he denied that too even though we were not notified of this expense prior to booking. He then said he would "look" into a refund if we wanted to cancel but it was only 3 days before our arrival and we feared we would be without a place to stay if we canceled plus his promise to "look" into a refund didn't seem too promising.. So we had to veer off course to find a store to buy sheets and towels. Then we we showed up we found sheets in the closets labeled as emergency sheets and could only be used for a fee. He failed to mention to me that those sheets were there. Maybe arrange it with guests to wash and dry the sheets that are already there before they leave. Then we wouldn't be hit with a surprise cost for things we don't have room for in our luggage to take home with us.

Depot Beach is one of beautiful parts of Australia. The sound of the waves lapping at night was wonderful. Snorkeling at the point is glorious. Shame people have taken all the abalone. The perfect place to just unwind and let yours troubles be yesterdays thought. One suggestion - new rollers on screen and sliding doors. Big tick from us, we will be back.

Our second weekend here and definitely not our last. Although the weather was not kind to us this house and its location make it easy to still thoroughly enjoy a winter visit to the coast. Table tennis, walks, beach footy and wifi helped our grandson forget his disappointment that he couldn't swim.
