5 stay at Top of the Bay
Location is awesome with great views from the 2nd storey bedroom. The kitchen was well appointed with good appliances. Plenty of room to park a boat with easy straight through entry and exit from the property.We loved our stay and will come again.

Great location very clean
Im not 1 to complain but some maintenance really is required. Nothing huge just what ive found that maybe the owner may not know about.
1 sliding door in 2nd living area was off its rail and didn't close
Tv in 2nd living area didn't have any tv channels, tried searching channels but nothing
Front screen sliding door was off its slide
Lamp in room with bunk beds doesn't work
Bbq was rank
1 light switch stuck on in top bathroom
Light heaters in top bathroom didn't work
Gas Hot water ran out
Lid on kettle didnt open
All these things aren't huge issues but for the price you'd expect things to work and have hot water for your whole stay. Some minor maintenance and this place will be overall a great place.
Thanks so much we enjoyed our stay overall

Fabulous property
Amazing property! It was perfect for our family of 3 and our friends who are a family of 4. Great that we can close the gate to keep the kids in and secure. Apart from a slight hiccup with the security code to get the keys stays had sent (Casey promptly answered her phone to help us out) it was perfect!
100% would stay again or Casey if you want to sell it I’m interested! 😍

A quick 2 night say!
When first driving up to the accommodation for the first time the kids were super excited and loved to look of the house! After walking inside and looking around we new our stay was going to be good fun and we was going to be staying in comfort!! The veiw from the main bedroom upstairs is beautiful. We will hopefully get some more time and spend a few more nights here in the future.
