This delightful beach house sleeps up to seven people with its three bedrooms (one with a queen bed, the second with a single above double bunk bed, and the third with a single bunk bed). Enjoy the beautiful views and unwind on the new and spacious deck as you enjoy a glass of McLaren Vale wine while watching the children play on the grass.

Will 100% be back
Spent four days here recently (Melbourne Cup long weekend) and it was exactly what it appears to be - a cute, comfortable beach house with a fantastic location, and everything you could want for an easy getaway. One caveat - the driveway is a little bit steep in parts, be careful as it is gravel and one can lose their footing if not paying attention. We will 100% be back.

Quaint slice of heaven
For our young family of 5 the location provided everything we needed; close wander to the beach, nearby bike and walking tracks and coffee shops to explore. The house was brilliant and well equipped and the enclosed front and back yard was great for the kids to play. Sitting out on the front deck with a cuppa in the morning or glass of wine in evening watching the kangaroos graze on the hill was bliss. Thank you for having us.

Perfect holiday house only a short walk to the beach
We stayed in the house for 10 days, the location was ideal ! The house has everything you need and even some toys for kids which my son loved ! I would maybe recommend the owner to buy a couple of new frying pans as the current ones are quite old. Otherwise the house was amazing ! Thank you Cam for a wonderful stay

Great view from the front deck
We had a lovely Christmas out on the front deck of this beach shack. The views over the hills are our favourite outlook at Port Willy. It’s an easy stroll to the beautiful beach & Cam was good to communicate with. We would stay again.
