About this house rental
With its beautiful stretch of sand backed by wild dunes, Hawks Nest is a classic Aussie seaside destination, offering water sports, boating, fishing and surfing as well as an impressive smattering of cafes, restaurants and galleries to reflect its chilled coastal vibe. Just a few hours north of Sydney, the town is accessed via a bridge across the Myall River from Tea Gardens, the gateway to the Myall Lakes National Park in all its watery and bushland glory. Separated from Port Stephens by the prominent Yacaaba Headland, Hawks Nest is best defined by its spectacular ocean beach, which is patrolled at the southern end (also known as Bennett's Beach). Meanwhile, on the bayside, tranquil Jimmy's Beach offers sheltered areas for children to play in and is popular with picnickers. For a sensational overview of the region, take the challenging, 6km Yacaaba Headland Walking Track, ascending 228m from Bennett's Beach through tall open forest and a rocky ridgeline to the summit. From the top, you can see as far as Seal Rocks and Barrington Tops, while out to sea, Cabbage Tree Island protects the only known breeding colony of the endangered Gould's Petrel. Follow the Dark Point Walking Track through the dunes to discover Dark Point Aboriginal Place, a rocky headland overlooking Broughton Island that served as a ceremonial and feasting place for Worimi people for more than 4,000 years. You can also extend this walk by continuing onto the Mungo Walking Track, a 21km hike through the Myall Lakes National Park that takes in Aboriginal and post-colonial heritage sites as well as a diversity of landscapes. The many moods of the tranquil Myall River unfold on a guided kayak tour with Ezy Kayaks Hawks Nest or Lazy Paddles. You can also hire a kayak or stand up paddle board for self-exploration, paddling along the river to the remote Engels Reach Picnic Area or Pipers Creek Picnic Area for a scenic lunch. With its stretch of riverside cafes and restaurants, Tea Gardens is the place to head for a seafood dinner or casual lunch. The iconic Tillermans is the longest-operating restaurant on the NSW North Coast, focusing on regional cuisine; while Tea Gardens Boatshed is a popular meeting place for breakfast and lunch. Perfect for a beachside escape or family holiday, Hawks Nest is around three hours' drive north of Sydney, 45min from Newcastle Airport and 90min from Taree Airport. Coach services also run from Sydney via Newcastle. You can make this a memorable stop on a North Coast road trip.

Great house in great location
Well equipped house in a great location. Really close to Jimmy’s beach and walking distance to Bennett’s beach and IGA.
The phone reception wasn’t great so we couldn’t use our own data for iPads ect - I think it’s time for the owners to include WiFi. We had a great time here exploring the beautiful Hawks Nest area.

Disappointed
We arrived and the bins were full over Christmas the next day was a public holiday so we were 3 days before the waste was collected. The property was advertised as having air conditioning and it didn’t.. I was offered extra fans! Luckily it wasn’t 40 degrees, I bought this to the attention of the real estate who apologised and corrected the advertisement on stays.

House was perfect. Very clean. Only downside was that there was no Wifi for us to use or any games
The rent was pretty good. Great location and best of all if you ever visit there make sure you go to 2 Fat Bakers Bakery in Myall St they have excellent pies.

Peaceful leafy area close to beach
Beautiful home only 2 mins from Jimmy’s Beach. Bedrooms are spacious with really comfy beds. Well equipped kitchen with plenty of dishes and utensils. Guests need to bring their own linen and toilet paper.

Girls Weekend
The property is large and spacious - love the outdoor deck area. The house is very well located a short walk from Jimmy's beach which is beautiful. Kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed our stay very much. Didn't mind bringing our own linen etc, but didn't realise we should have brought our own toilet paper! There was about half a roll only provided in each bathroom. Otherwise - all good.

There are lots of places to relax- the deck table sits 10, plus an outside lounge perfect for reading and several other outdoor settings.
What fi would be a nice addition.

Perfect location, great property.
We had a great time at this property. Travelling with a family of 6 teenagers the location was great with beaches and shops within easy walking distance. Fishing and boat hire just a short drive away at Tea Gardens, our stay was relaxing and enjoyable. Highly recommend this property and location.

A lovely girls weekend
The property was clean modern and well stocked. We hired the linen pack. The lounge seating could have been more generous. It would have been helpful to know advance that it l if we did not want to drive we needed to use courtesy buses from the Benchmark or the Tea Gardens Hotel. It was a nice walk to Jimmy’s Beach and Windy Woppa. Tillerman’s for lunch was fantastic. The owners really need to provide wifi password so that we could have watched shows downloaded to our laptops etc. we brought board games which was a lucky.
