This area of Hawkie is lovely and this property is perfect for dogs. Comfortable living area and great fenced yard which is beautifully shaded.Fabulous trees and birds.The veranda is terrific and has a huge slide out shade awning. If you don’t like going up stairs it’s not for you, however there is a 2 br self contained ( albeit unrenovated) flat underneath. Great shower head and plenty of comfortable outdoor furniture.

It was a tad warm and uncomfortable inside upstairs and the provided floor fan was pretty poor. I’m thinking ( having had an association with the place for 63 years)..with global warming, …holiday property owners at Hawks Nest are really going to have to start getting ceiling fans and/or air conditioning. I also think when one is paying $2500 for the week, it’s not really good enough to get the feeling that you’re lobbing in on someone’s holiday house. Ie the kitchenware, china ( it’s a case of more is not always better)…and furniture ,cushions etc needs an overhaul, particularly the dining chairs which appear to have lost all their spring support. It may be ok for a families holiday house but not a commercial rental. PS a seriously low toilet.

The staff listened and responded very quickly and efficiently to our concerns about staying in this property and arranged an alternative location.

The photographs are not representative of the property as we saw it in reality. The description does not mention that some of the bedrooms can only be accessed by an outdoor stairway. The front door access is blocked by internal furniture. Linen must be hired at a cost of $22 per person.

Maybe ceiling fans as the house was very hot and the old fans were useless in humid weather. BBQ was very dirty and we had to clean before using.

we liked the size of the property, the number of beds and the location.

the water pressure and shower head in the upstairs shower was not great and there was limited cooling options so we were lucky it wasn’t too hot.
