About this property

Illaroo House · Heated pool · Pets · Sleeps 10

  • Heated pool, so the swimming season here runs a lot longer than you would expect.

    Four bedrooms, sleeps 10, and two dogs are welcome. There is a big garden with a kids slide and a fire pit, a north facing front deck that gets the morning sun, and a bay window looking straight at the mountains.

    Short walk to Shoal Bay, Box and Wreck Beaches. If there is something that would make your stay easier, just ask. We are usually able to sort it.

    Illaroo sits on a spacious corner block. It features four bedrooms sleeping up to 10, including a perfect rumpus room with bunks for the kids to claim straight away.

    The bay window in the master bedroom captures great of the mountains, ideal for a quiet morning coffee. Outside, the north-facing front deck gets all the morning sun. The backyard comes fully equipped with a large pool, fire pit, a slide for little ones, and plenty of lawn for games and dogs to roam.

The house was great the outside area is perfect and with two small dogs having a safe place to run was trouble free. The back sliding door sticks a bit but if that is all I can find as a downside the house is fabulous and the location is close to everything you could need. We based ourselves there for beach 4WD and worked out great.
