We had a lovely stay here. So quiet and so close to the Myall river and the bay. Our whole family loved the fishing, swimming and walks along the beach. The dogs loved their stay as well. Communication with Anna was very pleasant and easy. Highly recommend!

Thanks Anna we had a fabulous stay. My family previously had a holiday house a few doors down and staying here has felt like a welcome return home! Beautiful house and location, perfect for a couple of families. Jimmy’s beach is an effortless stroll round the corner.
Anna was very responsive and helpful during our stay.

The house had a good vibe when I walked in. It suited our family group of 4 adults and 2 teenagers very well and it’s proximity to our favorite spot Jimmy’s Beach was the draw card when I booked. This will be my first choice for our next visit to Hawks Nest.

A fantastic little getaway, excellent location, really well equipped kitchen. However, the back deck a bit dodgy in some places and not real good for toddlers One of boards was broken, so had to place an esky in the middle of the deck so no-one would go through it, some of the other boards around the broken one were pretty rotten. Front sprinkler coming on around the time that cars are being packed for checkout was an extreme hinderance.

Relaxing break with our dogs
We were delighted to spend our first holiday for many years at 54 The Anchorage
Our accommodation was perfect for our needs
There was a wonderful fenced in backyard
Which enabled us to take our faithful doggie companions and keep them safe.
Anna was a wonderful host and made us very welcome and provided some great tips about the local eateries .
The accommodation was in a great location and we enjoyed many walks around the area
The area itself is very beautiful with lots of native birds and plants

Hawks Nest Stay
I was very disappointed that nowhere in the description I found that dogs are not allowed inside. I have 2 Chihuahuas, they can not be outside, as one of them cannot get back up onto the deck. Having said that, they loved the huge backyard, there was a lot to explore and it was safe for them to do it.
The sprinklers go on at 8.39 am, since the time for being out of there is 9.30am, make sure everything is packed before that time.
My husband was disappointed to leave his valuable fishing rods on the back deck, with the chance of being stolen.
My last concern is, that the windows were not clean.
Other than that the house had all the utensils needed.
Loved the bath and surroundings and the views to the Singing Bridge and River .

All Good at The Anchorage
The property was good for us and it was the first time we travelled with our pet
As there was no protection from the weather outside we put him in the laundry
Property is located in good spot

The property is really great! Nice big backyard for the dogs to run and play. Unfortunately the beach right nearby isn’t dog friendly but it’s not far to get to the dog friendly sections :)
The house was very clean.
Thanks!

Loved the house!
My daughter and I had a lovely stay at the house along with my two chihuahuas. They loved the backyard which was fully fenced and they played very happily. The backyard has gorgeous green grass and trees for shade along with a large timber deck for sitting. The house is very comfortable and has everything you could need on holiday. The bathroom, laundry and toilet have all been renovated and are immaculate. The house is around the corner from Jimmys Beach and the walk is only 5 minutes. Anna the owner is very communicative and answered any of my questions very quickly. We look forward to another visit some time soon and thanks Anna for a much needed break.

Great weekend away
Has a great stay at Hawkes Nest. The house is well equipped and well located. We even caught two fish this morning!
A tip: don’t leave things on the washing line overnight. The auto sprinkler system comes on pretty early and if you’re not quick, everything’s wet again. We loved it and would be happy to stay again.

The house fulfilled our basic requirements.
The security door is broken and ceiling fans would be useful on hot days and nights.

Do close to the beach- only a short walk!! The house had everything we needed!!
What a magic location and a very short walk to the beach! The house had everything we needed with a secure back yard. It was wonderful to be able to go on holiday with our beloved dog!

Great Location!
Great location! We spent a weekend at "on the Anchorage" and will definitely be back. It has everything you want for a beach holiday. It is clean and comfortable and the owner is very friendly and helpful with info on the area. The bathroom and laundry could do with an update but the rest of the property is great and my family really enjoyed their stay. Thank you!

Wonderful location
Our family holiday to Anna's place was wonderful, great location, lovely house and Anna was great to deal with and very helpful, always ready to answer any questions and very generous with arrival and departure times. My son fishes and we were extremely close to the boat ramp and also within minutes walk to the pristine Jimmys beach. Great secure backyard for our dogs. A very peaceful break. Thanks Anna.
