Fantastic stay
Wonderful water front home where you can easily sit back, relax and watch the bay all day. Or get active and see the wonderfully wild beaches like policeman’s point and deep creek, or go for a paddle up the river. Stunning! House has everything you need and great upstairs and downstairs zoning. Very family friendly!

Pre Xmas stay
The house and kitchen are very well kitted out, however there was no book of information about the property or surrounding area or map which would have been helpful BYO everything including beach towels (which we did)

Great property, except there was a leak above the front sliding doors which left a pool of water on the floor (and wet curtains) after an overnight storm. Another (much smaller) leak under the kitchen sink - just FYI :) Otherwise, another great weekend spent at this same property - thanks again!

We had a relaxing 3 night stay in this very comfortable spacious house. Easy self checkin/checkout. Upstairs main bedroom had very comfy bed, amazing views, gorgeous sunrises. Well supplied kitchen amenities, heat pump provided cosy warmth, lovely deck off lounge room to enjoy water views. We used the supplied kayaks & lifejackets one late afternoon. Location was central for our day trips & walks, quiet for our visit late April, perfect for our getaway! Thank you. Pam & Kerry

Ansons Bay break
The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. It would be a great location if you wanted to stay put and be isolated and the weather was good. Unfortunately we had dreadful weather, and the dirt road from St Helens was in poor repair, so we felt the property was too far out of the way to change plans, and visit St Helens, etc. No fault of the beautiful house just unfortunate weather. A list of instructions/ house intro would have been handy too.

Rare and special experience
Perfect location and facilities for a remote family holiday; filled with lots of fishing, beach walks, kayak trips and more (husband loved having his boat moored right out the front!). The view incredible. The township so friendly. Will definitely be back. Thank you!

Peaceful and Relaxing
Lovely house with all the necessities. A great view to Policemans Point. Very relaxing to sit and look out over the water. A quiet spot away from it all. Easy access to the kayaks down in the boatshed. Able to pull the kayaks out of the shed into the water. Little birds visit each day. Plan your supplies well as the nearest store is quite a distance away.

Modern house but shame about the smells!
This property was beautifully located and appointed. However when first entering we were hit by this awful stale cooking smell. Then on entering upstairs bedrooms the smell was worse. The main bedroom bedding including all pillows reeked of cigarette smoke. The other bedroom stuck of stale dirty people. The housekeeping itself was spotless. The front window also leaked after rain. Mixed feelings about our stay due to the awful lingering smells. Thought property was overpriced especially if the weather wasn't suitable for using the kayaks and bikes.

Good morning Sally Sorry about your experience with the smells We have had the same cleaner for 3 years and very happy with her as she is very thorough When you spoke to her on your stay , after you left she tried to find where the smells were . Being a smoker her self got a freind who is a non smoker to see if she could track it down . Must have been something so she stripped everything down and had it all dry cleaned in St. Helens . Admittedly it is dearer than a caravan park cabin but you get the whole house waterfront with amazing views . Unfortunately the weather was not kind hope it is better on your next holiday Stay safe and well Kind regards Kevin and Tina

Quick and friendly communication with the owner only set the tone for the delight that is this home in Anson's Bay. The facilities were clean and comfortable and access to kayaks were so appreciated. Close to amazing coastline and a quiet, gentle retreat to soothe the soul. Thanks Kevin and Tina.

Fantastic and beautiful piece of Paradise
Wow ! ! what a beautiful property and location. My wife and I went to celebrate our 15 year anniversary. From the moment we pulled into the driveway we were blown away. The house was so welcoming and access was easy, we had fantastic communication from the owners both before we left and while we were there. The house was absolutely spotless... which is a huge compliment considering all the sand lol. The house was so welcoming and set up beautifully for guests, even had bits in the pantry just like at home. The rooms were so comfortable and oh... the beds were amazing !! The boat shed with all the goodies was awesome, the use of the bikes, fishing rods and kayaks was the cherry on the cake, we were able to explore the whole area by bike one day, kayak the next to hiking along the beach coves looking for shells. It was an absolute pleasure to stay here and would recommend this place for anyone with a family wanting to enjoy the outdoors. we will definitely be back....with the children next time he he. thanks again. kindest regards Aaron and Lisa

Fantastic
Fantastic place to stay - the house and the venue are excellent. Views over Ansons bay in the afternoon are great. Kids loved kayaking on the bay. Just a reminder to guests that the closest shop is about 20 min drive one way, to Gladstone, the shop in Gladstone does not really stock much, no fresh food for example. So best to have all your food sorted out before you arrive for the duration of your stay
