Holiday by the water

A perfect tranquil setting for us. An uninterrupted waterside view from the balcony, the lounge and the kitchen. An easy and beautiful walk at low tide to Flaherty's Beach. Wouldn't mind a firmer bed, but that's just a personal thing. Not too far from the beautiful spots at the bottom of Yorke Peninsula.

Shack with a view

We enjoyed our time in The Shack. It was as we expected, not 5 stars but comfortable and clean with a great view. Sunrises over the bay, pelicans and hooded plovers, playing in the shallows. There is not a lot to do at Pt Turton itself but relaxing and no pressure is good. Pt T. is a great place to use as a central point to visit other sites. Meal at the Tavern (crumbed whiting)...excellent. overall good value.

Relaxing in comfort

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: having stayed here on many occasions now, we never get tired of the view. Old style accommodation with a comfortable feel. Highly recommend to anyone who just wants to get away. No microwave or electric frying pan, so suggest you prepare for that. BBQ is top of the range and enjoyed many a steak or fish being cooked on plate or grill.

Holiday

Great location, beach shack description accurate. Having to supply bedding, towels and toilet paper seems harsh considering the price. Shower dripped all day/night with faulty valve. Bathroom generally sub standard. No microwave a surprise. With a few improvements it would be a great place. We did enjoy the views and walking trails.

Nothing "Classic" about this Shack

Beware. The Classic Shack is without doubt the worst Stayz listed property we have had the misfortune to book. The online photos are misleading and deceptive. The light and airy shots are not representative of the old dark dingy and smelly joy that awaits you. We arrived, entered the property, chose not to stay and drove straight home, ruining our planned stay at Point Turton. What a dump.
