This is such a great place and quiet location. We had 5 adults including 3 younger people, and everyone loved the layout, interior decor, facilities, well-stocked kitchen, wi-fi and beach views. The additional caring touches of coffee pods, special teas, bread making machine and ingredients all made it wonderful. Spotlessly clean. Lovely linen. The communication with Greg was outstanding, he was so quick to message back and generous with his information, advice, flexibility and openness. We would highly recommend this place, it's a fantastic spot. Thank you Greg and Sue!

Vardy’s shack at Mount Dutton Bay is amazing. It’s so peaceful and relaxing. Well equiped, very clean, on the beach, beach view from lounge and both bedrooms, comfortables beds and pillows. We made fresh bread, caught fish, (fish cleaning facility) seen kangaroos, dolphins, emus and many bird life. Seating and table out the front and the back. A run for your dog. Paddle board and 2 kayaks. We had an amazing fire in the fire pit on the beach. HEAVEN…

Vandy's Shack has everything! We brought relatives from the UK and they fell in love with the "shack"....kayaking straight from the back door - we were lucky to paddle with a pod of dolphins and a sea lion! We used the shack as a base to explore - beautiful Farm Beach, up to Baird Bay to swim with the sea lions, and oysters in Coffin Bay. Just fabulous! So good to go home, cook dinner with a cool drink or 2 in hand and enjoy watching the world go by - the shack really had everything you could need. We would all love to come back....

Spectacular location with so much to see and do. 20 mins to Coffin Bay or stay in your own little slice of heaven!
Pooch loved it and made doggo friends when not snoozing in the sun.

They don’t make shacks like these anymore. Lovely retro feel but has what you need for a standard bnb. Felt like my childhood. Was great to sit outside facing the water and watch the world go by including the diverse bird life. Highly recommended.

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place.

Great place for a relaxing stay. Very windy so we couldn’t use kayaks and paddle board. Not the best beach to walk out and have a swim. Absolutely spot less and air con worked really well. Recommend

Slice of paradise
My family and I stayed here for 3 nights, everyone thoroughly enjoyed the visit, including our dog who was welcomed with a kennel, bowls and a long run-free line made available for her.
The shack has been beautifully presented in its decor and the owner has included a history of the place with photos which made for some interesting reading.
We made use of the kayaks, the fire pit right on the beach and spent hours with the endless possibilities with lego and duplo.
The shack was very comfortable with a full kitchen and split system heater, the electric blankets on the bed were a nice touch for those cold nights.
Lots to do in the local area, info found on the fridge was very handy.
Very quite area but the people we did meet were very friendly, it was nice to get back to the basics of life and enjoy the scenery.

A very special place
Stayed a relaxing week at Vandy's shack, and really hope to go back. The shack is very clean and comfortable, the location peaceful and beautiful. Location is great - not too far from Coffin Bay and Pt Lincoln is only 30-40 minutes away. Having a camp fire on the beach under the stars with freshly shucked coffin bay oysters was a real treat. Highly recommended.

Heavenly
Depends what you are looking for. If you want no high rise and shops and hordes of people, forget Mount Dutton. But if after peaceful beautiful simple isolation… there could be nothing better. Absolutely fabulous.

Far from the "madding crowd"
Secluded, peaceful and just perfect for a short "escape" from Adelaide. The tranquility of Mt Dutton Bay, proximity to Coffin Bar (and the National Park),the wealth of discoveries on the doorstep (beaches, coves, walks, birds, wildflowers) and the sunrises/sunsets were just perfect for the required relaxation. Thank you Greg - we loved the "shack", the location, your messages and the total serenity

A relaxing stay
We had a wonderful relaxing stay at Greg's shack. The shack is right on the bay and was set up with everything we needed, it was very comfortable. We enjoyed the use of the kayak's, and saw a number of sting rays, jellyfish and other fish. Mount Dutton Bay is in a good spot to easily get to Coffin Bay or Port Lincoln. Greg was easy to communicate with and we had no issues finding the shack. What a gem!

We loved our stay at Vandy’s Shack!!!
We spent a week here to recharge our batteries after travelling. It was absolutely perfect! Right on the water, with so much to see & do. All the little extras made it feel so homely & inviting. Perfect for a small family or a couple. Had everything we needed & has been our best holiday house we have ever stayed at. Thank you so much Greg & Sue for opening up your cool little retro shack to us. Such a pleasurable experience.

We’ll be back!
Stunning and quiet location. Perfect for older children who can enjoy the kayaks and water safely. Great fishing too. So relaxing. The bay itself is very shallow and full of prickly things hence why everyone is out on the water in kayaks and paddle boards, but within very easy reach of other pristine deserted white sandy beaches. This is a beloved family shack and it shows in the cleanliness and what has been provided.

Amazing location, great shack.
This is the perfect location for a quiet get away, it’s a beautiful idyllic location. The accommodation is a comfortable, well equipped and beautifully maintained retro shack. The host was fantastic and generous when we had to delay our trip & gave plenty of tips for fishing. It’s a great location to relax and enjoy the water away from the crowd. We hope to come back at some stage in the future
