Poorly managed.
The house is a shabby chic cottage in great location, however is very poorly managed.
No dishcloth, no hairdryer, no shampoo, no insect spray ( and there were insects inside so had to buy some). No sugar, no milk… all things you could expect in the cheapest of motels. These should be included for the convenience of guest in this house. It rained the whole time we were there so because there was no covered outside decks we were stuck inside.
The place needs a head to toe scrub! Cobwebs all over windows. It could be so much more comfortable. I wouldn’t book again as I would pay half the cost for a better managed cabin in equally good location down the road. We had also requested a late checkout than 10 and it was just flatly declined.
We loved staying here, the house was big enough for our needs, close enough to walk in to town and the beach and a very easy process to check in! We will definitely stay here again!
We had such a great time here. The property was clean, comfortable, warm and well maintained. Our dog loved the yard and we felt comfortable leaving him there while we were out and about. Location was great too. Hope to be back in the summer!
A stroll across the grass to the creek and sand flats, without a single road to cross, is perfect with young children. And with the dog friendly beach just across the park, this is a perfect spot for a relaxing family vacation.
The house is well appointed with plenty of space for the family to relax after a day in the sun, or just to spend time during any less than ideal weather.
Beautiful little cottage in a gorgeous spot. Loved it!!

Not as nice as the photos
Excellent location, 15min walk to town and 2mins to the water.
The photos made the property look far nicer than what the place actually was.
It’s clean and basic but not worth the price.

Great location but some issues
This is a cute house in a beautiful, convenient and quiet location but no basics in the cupboard (not even glad wrap or paper towel) and the wifi didn't work. Another issue was the dishwasher - you couldn't fit a standard size plate without the rotor arm hitting it. There weren't many plates or bowls provided so in the end it was easier just to wash up. Overall we had a lovely stay, and it was great to bring the dog with us. Thanks.

Cute cottage near the water
We enjoyed our stay at this cottage in Huskisson. We came down with our 15mo daughter for 3 nights. The house is comfortable and neat and was exactly what we needed. It's very close to the water and away from the centre of town, but only takes 5 minutes to drive in. It's super quiet when you're sleeping which is nice if you're taking a break from the busy city.
It was quite chilly in the house. We didn't turn on the heaters but I expect you'd probably want to if you came down any later than we did (March). It was especially cold in the room with the twin beds where our daughter slept.
Our favourite rentals stock the cupboards with basics like olive oil, nice salt & pepper, toilet paper etc so you don't have to buy those items for a short stay. Unfortunately there weren't any in the house, so we made some purchases up in Nowra at the supermarket.
The wifi didn't work (we always have to work when we travel) and we had no phone data reception in the house so this was a little irksome.
Some nice lamps with warm light globes would make this a little cosier in the evenings.
The beds were comfy and we slept well. Good shower and it's great there's a washing machine and dryer if you're staying for a while. There's a bath if you have little ones.
Thanks for the stay!

Cozy home away from home
My family and I loved this gorgeous cottage, it was comfortable, cozy and had everything we needed. Sitting on the deck feels like you are in a tree house and the ocean glimpses through the trees just topped it off. We loved being able to bring our dog who loved to sit out on the deck doing a bit of bird watching! And of course running and playing on the many dog beaches was a big treat for him also. The location is great, just a quick drive into town or a nice walk along the ocean front. I would definitely recommend this lovely place.

Lovely place but not really dog friendly
Great location right on the corner of the creek and beach, just out of town in a nice quiet spot.
The house was a well furnished and equipped holiday home. Very pretty, light filled and welcoming. A great holiday house!
Great deal with the stay 2 nights get one free. Much appreciated!
The wifi was however not working which was actually a drawcard for booking the property as I needed to complete some work during our time away. I called the office to be told at first the property did not have internet despite being advertised and on all the welcome documents, then told that its an intermittent service and it wasn't considered a problem and it wasnt looked into any further even though I tried to explain what was actually happening when trying to connect.
The dogs loved the location, the beach etc, however, You cannot actually leave the dogs out on the back deck and leave the house. There is a seat inbuilt to the balcony side which even a very small dog can jump on, then easily jump over if they wanted.
We have 2 very well behaved dogs, and i doubt they would, however we tried to leave them on the deck and go out, and were overwhelmed with worry and had to return to the house to sadly lock them in the laundry. We were not at all happy with this situation. Our dogs are our family.
There is a large amount of brand new looking fencing around the house, so i would suggest putting one extra panel between the new fencing and house to put the dogs in while away from the house.
A lovely stay, however unless the Dog Friendliness of the house improves we will not be able to return.

Cute Cottage, Great Location
My husband and I stayed here as we were too late in booking the Hyam's beach cottages. This was just as good. its a great little home.
We stayed here for 4 nights, was a 10 min drive to Hyams Beach, and a 1 min drive to Huskisson restaurants & pub.
The house comfortably sleeps 6 people.
Clean & tidy w/ linen.
Lamp shades beside the bed were broken, and some windows were unable to be opened which wasn't to good as we would have like to capture the sea breeze throughout the house. But overall a great little place to stay. Would definitely return! its close to everything without being amongst the hustle & bustle of all the main attractions around the area.
I highly recommend it!
