Cozy Waterfront Family Sized Retreat
Nestled in a waterfront hillside just meters from the Dawesville boat ramp, park, walking trail, and local general store our property offers a convenient and tranquil escape for holidaymakers looking for both a sea and tree change! Enjoy the sunrise, BBQ's and afternoon drinks on the balcony or cozy up inside with the wood-burning fireplace.
The property is fully furnished, airconditioned and equipped to ensure you have everything you need for your stay. The property provides a high chair and travel cot for families traveling with young children, as well as a selection of toys and DVDs.
The kitchen is fully equipped and ready for your entertainment, home-cooked dinners, cheese platers, BBQ's and of course the all-important morning cup of coffee or tea! In the bathrooms, you will find a carefully selected range of hand soaps and body wash for your convenience. For long-term stays, the property offers a fully stocked and functional laundry.
Within 5 minutes of the property, you can find yourself at pristine beaches, playing a round of golf on the prestigious Cut Golf Course, enjoying channel views and dolphin watching from The Cut Tavern, or dining out at the numerous cafe and restaurant options the area has to offer. For weekend guests, you can take a stroll through the Peel Produce Markets that are held in the reserve in front of the property every Saturday morning. To stock up for your stay the local IGA and Coles complex are only 5 minutes away.
Mandurah town is a 15-minute drive and has plenty to offer holidaymakers, from dolphin and pirate cruises, mini train rides along the foreshore, skate park, cinema, playgrounds and of course more beaches. In the winter months, you could find yourself at the Winter Wonderland on the Mandurah Foreshore ice skating and tobogganing. Mandurah has no shortage of cafes, bars/pubs, day spas and boutique shops, you are sure to find something to please everyone during your stay.
Mandurah is also famous for the blue swimmer crab, if you find yourself staying at the property during crabbing season we have supplied everything you need to catch a feast of crabs from the estuary in front of the home.
For those wanting to explore, heading south takes you towards the Thrombolites, Thorney Devil Brewery, The lazy crab Tavern (for a local experience) and Old Coast Brewery. Taking you even further south you can visit the Crooked Carrot which is great for families and you can include a stop off for a swim at Preston beach or take a day trip to some of the beautiful towns the South West has to offer.
Heading east you can day trip to Pinjarra for a train ride the kids will love, head out to Dwellingup and enjoy the cidery, Carraholly Orchid or pack a picnic and visit the national park for a swim in the waterholes. A touch closer to home you can visit Midway Farm to pet the animals and try their delicious baked goods.
Notes for staying with young children - The property does accommodate children but it is worth noting that the property is not fenced and the home is split level featuring two carpeted five stair stairwells that are not gated. Outlet plugs have been placed on any unused power outlets and a fire place gate has been installed, additionally the balcony is fully enclosed but supervision of young children is encouraged.

Estuary road
Good location and access to estuary Good viewWell air conditioned Appliances all working and cleanComfortable bedsNote: some towels were dirty and we had to wash all towels. All towels are shedding material into showersNo mop provided and broom isn’t effective at sweeping (consider improving provision of cleaning equipment).No oven gloves found. Two cracked wine glasses found and left on counter for you to see. Note the patio furniture had not been cleaned with old food stains and bird poo. Cushions had just been turned over. This could contribute to your ant problem.At night we heard small animals in the ceiling. We suspect a bandicoot? Only heard at night so presumably nocturnal. Just to inform the owners in case they wish to investigate.
