Great place .Great location

We loved our stay at the Boathouse. It’s a great location—close enough to the beach and Cafes etc, yet far enough from the crowds of the town. The property is also dog-friendly, which was a huge plus. Cass was incredibly accommodating, making our experience even better. We’d definitely stay here again!"

Christmas Holiday 2024

Great location, house was a short walk to town and beach- loved walking along the iconic break wall whilst watching the dolphins. Plenty of fishing- loads of great spots!We dined at the bowling club-the meals were to rave over! (The Lamb Saddle was amazing!)Had all the comforts of home. Quite area with large back area to dine. We were able to prep meals and take time out before exploring beautiful Port Macquarie yet again. Great place to stay at Port! Locals were extremely friendly. We will be returning. Thanks Cass!!!

Convenient Location

The Boatshed was an excellent place for us to stay with our friends for a weekend getaway. 2 blocks from shops/beach/church. We were able to walk to all locations, so did not need to use the car once we had arrived. The accommodation itself was clean, and contained all the essentials: linen/towels/fully equipped kitchen. The listing was very accurate. Self check-in was easy. Would definitely recommend and would stay there again.

Perfect Base for a Family Holiday

The Boat Shed is the perfect place to base yourself for a family holiday, with all the comforts of home, room to park the boat and a back yard for the dog. We were able to walk to the beach, skate park, restaurants, cafes and for ice cream. Plenty of room for bikes, surf boards, skate boards all the holiday "stuff" with easy access and no stairs! Highly recommend. This was our second stay at the Boat Shed and it is our choice of accommodation when in Port Mac.

Awesome property

This house was very clean, inviting and close to everything, walking distance to shops, beach, clubs, and restaurants. The house was very presentable and had everything we needed. I highly recommend this accommodation and the owner was very helpful, accommodating and outstanding service. The house was fully equipped with everything you need from the kitchen throughout the property. We had our children and they loved it and was big enough with the closed in backyard. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to my friends and family. Thank you for a wonderful stay, we appreciated it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
