Comfortable shack with its quirky retro styling. We enjoyed listening to the sound of the surf, walk to the beach and views across Gawla and the Hindmarsh island bridge.
We loved our stay
The house was just as described warm clean and homely and met our needs perfectly.. we enjoyed our walks to the beach each day as well
Cute little shack with everything we needed for a weeks stay.
Communication with Rebecca was great.
Highly recommended, we visit Goolwa often and will definitely look to stay here again
Affordable place in Goolwa, close to beach. It is retro as advertised (we enjoyed the dvd selection), but perfectly comfortable - the bed was great. We had a few issues with check in information not arriving and correct beds not made up but easily sorted.
Was a fabulous retro beach shack, much better than a cabin or hotel room. Great location and we could park our JetSki. Loved the retro vibe and next time we will bring the kids to use the extra bedroom, thank you for having us!
My wife and I had a great time exploring the area for 9 days using this as âbase campâ great no fuss accomodation with all amenities required for our stay, shack exactly as described, we would book this accommodation again, thank you to the hosts, good shack experience
It was the second time my daughter and i have stayed. Once again it was perfect for us. Walking distance to beach everyday and Kuti Shack for a gorgeous lunch. Perfect home away from home with everything we needed.. We will be back again!
Simple and tidy 70's decor shack which had all we needed- especially suited for a couple. Peaceful location with a great view across Goolwa from the verandah.
As a side issue, hosts may like to consider installing a fly screen on the lounge sliding door, which we tended to use more as our entry/exit point instead of the main door near the queen bed (we had a few unwanted flies and mozzies enter when we weren't looking). Thanks for a great stay.
Great start to our Fleurieu Peninsular stay. Fairview Shack is rightly named, enjoying an elevated position of the area. Clean and bright. Well equipped . Handy location to explore the south coast. Recommend taking the cockle train from Goolwa to Victor Harbour
The shack is very cute its small but adorable. The loungeroom bedroom was great during the hot temps during our stay.
Bring own coffee for coffee machine. Gorgeous little garden. We enjoyed that access to shops, river and beach were so close.
Also I've left a dozen eggs from my chickens back home on Bum-nugget Farm for the hosts to enjoy.
We purchased the shack in 2017 and dubbed it 'Farview Shack' due to its lookout over Goolwa and surrounds. We wanted to keep its retro feel, but also make it clean and comfortable, so we have been steadily working on the property since that time. We love Australian native plants and have filled the garden with local plants and are gradually reducing the non-native species. It is a pleasure to watch the birds that are coming to enjoy this space. Rebecca was so inspired by the property and Goolwa that she wrote a mystery story, The Secret of Farview, which you can read during your stay.
