Ok and the dogs enjoyed it but maybe a little overpriced considering you have to go outside in the cold to go to the toilet.

Found it quite good size yard could have had somewhere to hang clothes.
Property was in short distance to main street not far fro Middleton and Pt Elliot

An adequate one bed, open plan room with good bathroom and general facilities. However ... to use the toilet, you must leave the room, go outside through the carport, to the toilet. Unsatisfactory, inconvenient, and potentially unsafe at night - and NOT mentioned in the property description. Both doors' security screen locks are broken. Outdoor BBQ was not clean enough to use. Dining table is 'high-set', with metal stools. Bed has bottom sheet plus a 'doona'. Overall, a disappointment, and poor value for money.

We love staying at The Shack. It’s cosy inside and local to Goowla town.
