About this house rental
Location:
Mandurah is a beautiful Western Australian town located on the Peel estuary 72 km south of the Perth CBD. The estuary is a breeding ground for a large variety of bird and marine life but is renowned for its crabs, dolphins and pelicans. Mandurah is a lazy holiday town known for its beaches, fishing, restaurants, scenic walks and outdoor activities.
The Crabshack is a fully rebuilt mid-century timber house offering a lifestyle snapshot of days gone by. Located one street back from one of Mandurah's best crabbing spots on the Coodanup foreshore, you can borrow our scoop nets and have a go for yourself. Its a like a secret hideaway, very quiet streets and a peaceful location, however still within close proximity to beaches, restaurants, shopping malls, boat ramps, Mandurah town-site and fishing.
House Details:
The CrabShack was extensively rebuilt over a two year period. Designed to retain the original character of the house so that it ties into its surroundings. Furnishing has been sourced to compliment the late seventies styling. You'll love the design and attention to detail of the renovation.
The CrabShack provides a lifestyle experience. It boasts a gourmet kitchen with quality appliances and cooking utensils. Entertaining is enhanced by a variety of spaces which lead to an outdoor entertaining area. The rooms are comfortable with inner-sprung matresses, Air-Conditioning, ceiling fans and a cosy wood fire for the winter months.
Guests have free access to a range of bicycles. Crabbing gear and some fishing equipment is available upon request and advice on the best fishing spots is always available to guests. The crabbing season in Mandurah is from December 1st until August 31st but the bigger ones are in mid to late January.
Linen including doona covers, sheets and pillow cases can be provided for an additional fee.
This property is perfect for families. It is very quiet and safe walking distance to the Coodanup foreshore reserve and children's play ground. A large shed and low maintenance rear courtyard offer an area for a barbecue and darts. Although the summer holidays are peak season, my favourite time to stay is early winter. Calm cool nights allow the Crabshack to excel in comfortable living. Sit around the fire, perhaps watch the footy, put your feet up and enjoy how a holiday in mandurah was 25 years ago.
The house sits on a large block where there is ample parking for cars, boats and caravans. There are boat ramps only minutes away which offer easy access to the Peel estuary, the Serpentine and Murray Rivers and the Indian ocean. Mandurah offers a variety of fishing options including deep sea, fresh water, beach, rock and estuary.

We stayed at CrabShack for an extended weekend with our two doggies. The hosue was nice and clean / as advertised. We ate out but the kitchen seemed to be quite well equipped.
The backyard is fairly large and well secured so our doggies really enjoyed exploring it and running around.
The neighbourhoord is very quiet so the nights were peacefeul and relaxing and in the morning there were lots of birds singing. There is a nice walkway along the estuary shore that's less than 2 minutes walk from the house that we also enjoyed.

This would have to be the best place we have stayed in for its price range, beautifully renovated house with a kitchen to die for and everything in the house you could possibly need.
Thankyou Luke 👍👍

Quiet part of Mandurah
Located in an older part of Mandurah it is nice and quiet. Very close to the Peel Estuary with great cycling and walking paths and a kids playground close by. The house has been nicely renovated with a gourmet kitchen and fantastic front deck to watch the world go by. Good size backyard too for that game of cricket and plenty of areas for the pooches as well.

Beautifully renovated gem
Luke the owner went out of his way to make us feel welcome and make sure every aspect of our stay was perfect. His attention to detail is immaculate. The wood fire is cozy and the fully renovated kitchen was a joy to cook in. 3 seperate outdoor areas for the dogs was a treat as was the fully tuned guitar that resides on site for those musically inclined. One street away is the estuary. Can’t wait to come back.

We had a very relaxing stay at the Crabshack. We loved that the kitchen, bathroom and laundry have had full renos and that the old-charm was still kept throughout the rest of the house. It was well stocked with kitchen items, games, bikes, crabbing gear and a very secure fence for our dog. We had everything we needed. Thanks for having us Luke, we loved it!

And so much more than we truly expected.. My kids made long life friends on the street.. We will definitely be visiting again..

Great location, spotless shack lacking nothing. It is obvious that the owner goes over and above to ensure that anyone who stays in his shack has a good experience and takes great pride in the unique way he has decorated this venue. The bird life in the area can be enjoyed from the front deck.

Such a cosy shack that has undergone a modern renovation bring comfort and convienence
Such a great place to get away for a quiet weekend. The owner was more than helpful fitting the kids out with bikes to ride the quiet street and to the foreshore park. Loved sitting on the front deck with the family pet listening to the birds and watching the children play. Night time spent inside with the cosy fire family and a glass or two of wine. The photos undersell this place. Well worth a visit. Thanks Luke and family for your hospitality. Dean Claire and family. We will be back 🍺

Everything as promised... a fabulous property & great facilities!
Loved our stay! I took my elderly parents & my dog and we all had a fabulous time. Comfy beds, fabulous kitchen, heaps of seating options, wonderful walks, games galore! Was divine to enjoy a bevvie on the verandah watching the bird life. Would absolutely recommend. Looking forward to returning in winter so I can use the log fire!
Luke was a great host.. great communication & follow up, with detailed instructions. He even touched base to check we could work the electronics! Very thoughtful.
