Cosy retro weekender with far-reaching views

Situated in quiet Goolwa Beach, Farview shack is a traditional Aussie weekender that has been updated to provide a comfortable, relaxing base for your stay in the beautiful south coast region.
Every window provides a different view of the surrounding area, from the hills to the lake and the sea. A covered deck along the front of the shack allows you to enjoy the views in comfort.
Across the road from a park, with an easy 10 minute walk to the beach and a quick drive to local shops and the historic town centre, Farview is ideally located for those looking for a short escape or a longer stay.
It has sleeping accomodation for 5 people with a separate bedroom and a sleeping nook off the main living area.
The kitchen has been recently renovated and contains all you need to prepare your own meals.
Reverse cycle air conditioning and TV/DVD are provided.
Outside is a covered area and lawn in a local native garden, and ample parking space. Meditate by the tranquil pond and in winter stargaze by the firepit.
With a décor that gives a nod to history but does not compromise on comfort, Farview will provide you with the quintessential Aussie holiday shack experience.

Best Shack in Goolwa
Had a wonderful stay at this Shack. It suited our needs really well. It is a cosy place and has ample space for 4 people who are 6foot 1- 6foot7. I would highly recommend this place to those who want an authentic shack’ experience. It is very comfortable for any situation, if you’re having a busy day then want to have a relaxed meal outside on the Jarrah dining table then this is the place for you. The only thing I would recommend for the owners is to have a BBQ outside on the deck. We are already looking at going again for another summer Goolwa extravaganza. ✌️

Quick getaway
Was a fabulous retro beach shack, much better than a cabin or hotel room. Great location and we could park our JetSki. Loved the retro vibe and next time we will bring the kids to use the extra bedroom, thank you for having us!
