We checked in late to our cabin with our little dog and were amazed when we opened the back door to a huge fenced off grass area for her. Will try and book the same cabin next time.

Nice cabins near the sand dunes

Pros: Loved the fact it is pet friendly, place was full in school holiday time but quiet and away from road noise.
Location: Short drive to shops and Nelson Bay and other attractions.
Only stayed 2 nights but the cabin was clean, warm and comfortable. Staff friendly and very helpful. Sand dunes at back door and enjoyed a beautiful sunrise atop a dune overlooking the ocean, whales passing by on their migration north.

Great location, lovely bush setting,

Pros: Well equipped cabins, lovely bush setting, lots of bird life, possums etc friendly staff
Cons: Room could have been a bit cleaner
Convenient location, many beaches close by to choose from, shops and pubs short drive away. Not too crowded, privacy in cabins. Great pool. Lovely games room. Excellent BBQ areas. Cabins equipped with everything you could possibly need. Well behaved dogs welcome ( which is great if you like dogs, not so great if you don't).
