We really enjoyed our stay and I will be recomending this property to friends and family (especially pet owners - we didnt bring our dogs down this time but the backyard is a good size and very secure)
Our only issue was towels - it is flagged on the property listing that towels arent included but I think this could be clearer. I would have appreciated a reminder in the pre check-in emails to BYO or pay for towels. Otherwise, I have no complaints.

The property was lovely, it had everything you needed for a great holiday. Our only complaints are that the water pressure in the shower was not great and the knives really need sharpening. Great art work throughout the house too!
4.0 / 5.0
Loved the location of the property - close to town and the beach and a good location to explore the rest of Dunsborough. House was clean and tidy. Few negatives included the main bed being squeaky and old, the front security door not locking or even closing properly so couldn’t allow airflow for fear of toddler pushing it open, and no top sheets on beds.
5.0 / 5.0
The house is exceptionally well presented and perfect for a family beach holiday. That’s not what we used it for though, as we only needed a couple of beds while participating in the Busselton Ironman.
4.0 / 5.0
The property is smallish though certainly suitable for us as an older couple. Anyone with a large family may find it a bit tight. The house and yard are well-kept, and the furnishings are comfortable. The fence on one side had small gaps at the bottom which resulted in us being a little concerned that our small dogs may get out. The possums also did result in a disturbed sleep as the dogs were not used to them. We do love wildlife and mention this so others are informed, not as a complaint. Thank you

Great location near beach and Dunsborough shops. House was clean, had everything we needed and no steps so convenient for our old dog. Perfect for kids with table tennis, cricket set and lots of games for them. The back yard is enclosed, flat and lovely green grass for kids and our old dog to lie on as well. Would definitely recommend.

A weekend away
This property is a great little house for those not wanting to spend big bucks for a weekend away in Dunsborough. We loved that the property is pet friendly so we could take our dog away with us. The location was great and just a small walk to town and close to the beach. I would just suggest updating the bed quilts/doona's as they were thin and not very warm during the cold nights. We would definitely stay there again.

Great location
We had a great time at this accomodation. The location was ideal as only a short walk to Dunsborough beach and into the town. Wide, quiet roads were perfect for riding our bikes with the children. Big grass backyard was secure for our dog to run around. House was clean and with plenty of space for our family of 4 plus granny. Very well equipped too with dvds, books, games, kitchen supplies. Would recommend this house for sure and would book it again in future.

Great house for a family getaway with our dog
The house was great and had everything we needed for our long weekend away. The kitchen and laundry were stocked with the essentials which was handy. Location is good, only a short walk to Geographe Bay and to the centre of town. Plus a short drive to explore the amazing places beyond Dunsborough itself.
