Nothing "Classic" about this Shack
Beware. The Classic Shack is without doubt the worst Stayz listed property we have had the misfortune to book. The online photos are misleading and deceptive. The light and airy shots are not representative of the old dark dingy and smelly joy that awaits you. We arrived, entered the property, chose not to stay and drove straight home, ruining our planned stay at Point Turton. What a dump.

Holiday by the water
A perfect tranquil setting for us. An uninterrupted waterside view from the balcony, the lounge and the kitchen. An easy and beautiful walk at low tide to Flaherty's Beach. Wouldn't mind a firmer bed, but that's just a personal thing. Not too far from the beautiful spots at the bottom of Yorke Peninsula.

Cute place in a nice location. Short walk to the playground and walking along the beach
Easy to book and communication was great. The house was clean and tidy. Bedrooms are quite small but enough for our young family of 5. The kitchen utensils like pans and knives are a bit outdated but we made it work. The views are lovely and there some board games available under the coffee table

Absolute beach front
The best way to unwind before the festive frenzy season. Nothing beats that view with a glass in hand. Comfortable with the reverse cycle when unseasonable cold weather hit mid December. Magic Shack!

Shack with a view
We enjoyed our time in The Shack. It was as we expected, not 5 stars but comfortable and clean with a great view. Sunrises over the bay, pelicans and hooded plovers, playing in the shallows. There is not a lot to do at Pt Turton itself but relaxing and no pressure is good. Pt T. is a great place to use as a central point to visit other sites. Meal at the Tavern (crumbed whiting)...excellent. overall good value.

Holiday
Great location, beach shack description accurate. Having to supply bedding, towels and toilet paper seems harsh considering the price. Shower dripped all day/night with faulty valve. Bathroom generally sub standard. No microwave a surprise. With a few improvements it would be a great place. We did enjoy the views and walking trails.

Relaxing in comfort
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: 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.

Classic shack maybe a couple minor of tweaks
Was a nice place to stay, very clean for what it is and great location. Has had a nice little Reno on the living areas but the toilet and bathroom area is still very original, not that it really bothered us at all. The only thing we found annoying about our stay was the entrances. Road access was there but only if you entered from the beach faced balcony/pergola area and opened from the inside. The sliding door lock was very temperamental and probably needs a replacement as it’s definitely on its last legs. If they were to change that lock and place one also on the road facing door where the parking is would make ease of entry much easier, and maybe a new fly screen door on the front also as the original wooden one is very tight to open and shut, especially trying to be careful as to not void a bond refund. Again no front handle to open from road entrance on fly screen door. Other than the entry situation the kitchen could do with a cheap microwave. These aren’t complaints at all, rather tips for the owners to maximise return visitors. Nice spot and very clean, we’d come back. Cheers.
