Nothing "Classic" about this Shack

Beware. The Classic Shack is without doubt the worst Stayz listed property we have had the misfortune to book. The online photos are misleading and deceptive. The light and airy shots are not representative of the old dark dingy and smelly joy that awaits you. We arrived, entered the property, chose not to stay and drove straight home, ruining our planned stay at Point Turton. What a dump.

Comfortable Shack with beautiful Beachfront View

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the second time we have stayed at 'Classic Shack' in the last 3 years. So beautiful to wake up to the sun rising over the ocean in the morning and choosing to sit and watch from inside or walk 30 seconds out onto the beach. Facilities are fairly basic but good and clean and met all we needed. The place is a little cold at night but there is airconditioning (we didnt use) & blankets (The bed is comfortable & has a warm quilt). It would be helpful to have a microwave (for heating heat packs) however bringing hot waterbottles satisfied that need. It is a 10-15min walk to the jetty & pub. Pub was great (remember to book). We would stay here again.
