  I really appreciated the help from Accommodation on Yorkes who responded to my questions about steps (I have some mobility issues following surgery) quickly and provided the information that gave me confidence to book. Classic shack provided a lovely opportunity to stay close to the beach and has great views.

  This is the second time we have stayed at 'Classic Shack' in the last 3 years. So beautiful to wake up to the sun rising over the ocean in the morning and choosing to sit and watch from inside or walk 30 seconds out onto the beach. Facilities are fairly basic but good and clean and met all we needed. The place is a little cold at night but there is airconditioning (we didnt use) & blankets (The bed is comfortable & has a warm quilt). It would be helpful to have a microwave (for heating heat packs) however bringing hot waterbottles satisfied that need. It is a 10-15min walk to the jetty & pub. Pub was great (remember to book). We would stay here again.

  As usual, we totally enjoy this place and its location.
  On this occasion though, we were disappointed with how clean the place was when we arrived. The front decking wasn't as clean as normal, along with inside. It looked that no sweeping was done at all prior to our arrival. Once again, the gas bottle was empty and when we went to use the oven, we found it has one setting and no other (just 200 degrees).
  My rant though, has little point, as we will always head back to this little classic of a place.

  a guest from Belair, sa recommends this vacation rental

  Perfectly named, this is a Classic Shack! Simple accomodation right on the beach (mostly rocky, lots to explore) with only a path in front. It was warm enough with the split system (maybe a little chilly in the bathroom), and had most things we needed inc oil, salt etc. The bathroom sink is tiny but we just used the kitchen sink to wash in. Could do with another wine glass and an extra saucepan (as there are only 1 of each).
  There is a small store with essentials a short walk away, a pub about 20 mins walk away and an IGA a 20 min drive away.
  We loved the peace and tranquility, sitting on the deck is magical, it was a perfect escape for us (family of 4 with 2 teens) and we will be back!

  This was our second stay in this property and we have booked a third stay because we love the location and the ocean views so much. Simple accommodation with beachy decor. Such a relaxing place to enjoy some downtime but also an easy drive to local towns and bakeries. Plenty of bird life to watch while enjoying the balcony views or go for a daily walk on the esplanade walking track. A great base to travel the "Bottom End" and visit iconic beaches like Berry and Pondalowie Bays. Highly recommend.

  My partner and I hired this shack during summer last year and had an absolute ball that we had to hire it again this year. It is clean, tidy and everything works well. This shack is exactly what you need for a little get away to kick back and relax whilst on the beach. The balcony provides a great wind break so even during the windy days, we were able to still sit outside and enjoy the view. Absolutely love this little shack.

  I recently stayed at the Classic Shack at Pt Turton for a 3 night getaway with my son and another mate and his son. The location is brilliant, magic views of the bay right from the balcony and also from the kitchen. The property is rustic and has a real charm to it. It was very comfortable for the 4 of us. While there are other more modern accommodation options in Pt Turton, they don't all have the vista that the classic shack does. Its close to the general store, jetty for fishing and also the local tavern for a great meal with another terrific view. Communication throughout was excellent and easy. A perfect place to getaway and relax for a small group who appreciate location and a value for money place to stay. I would love to stay here again! Our group had a great time in this wonderful location.

  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.
