About this property

Jack's Shack Talbingo

Interior is all brand new, this is one of the best houses in Talbingo!

FREE Wi-Fi

Jacks Shack is Talbingo's most exclusive holiday listing. Two years have been spent re-designing and re-building the house.

Time, love and a lot of money have been put into the renovations and this is no longer your average snowy house. Extensions have doubled the size of the original house and we have adopted an open plan style for the main living areas.

Innovative design, spacious rooms, attention to detail and top class fittings & fixtures all combine to make Jack's Shack one of the nicest homes in Talbingo.

JACK'S SHACK FEATURES:

The property has great views of the mountains and is only a few minutes walk from any of Talbingo's amenities including, children's playground, park, sporting oval, Country Club, golf course, tennis courts, Talbingo Lodge Restaurant, supermarket and service station.

Best weekend ever - Our wedding weekend! Accommodation was great too! Thanks. Mr & Mrs Joe & Tina De Jong.

We had a lovely time in this beautifully appointed holiday house. The only hiccup was running out of gas in the barby, but thanks to Talbingo Home Services (the caretakers) the gas was replenished before the snags got cold. Terrific service. The Browns Family.

The website didn't do Jack's Shack justice! We got a pleasant surprise when we arrived. It's lovely and modern and very spacious. Every convenience is catered for. Well done!!! Loved our stay!! Papoulias & Prassas Family.

Perfect accommodation for Family Snow Trip
This property is on point. Exactly as described, and so big! We are a family of 5 but comfortably could have fitted another family, plus a couple. Lots of space to eat, chill and move about. Even a high chair, internet, super comfy large couch, and heating in all bedrooms. We will be back!

Talbingo Fishing Trip
What a great house. Fresh and newly renovated. Great kitchen which was extremely well equipped. Very spacious with a great covered deck for afternoon drinks. Good sized bedrooms. Plenty of parking and centrally located with a short stroll to the club and shops. Communication with the property Manager was spot on. A very enjoyable stay. We'll be back for sure. Andrew

Great house for families
We had two couples and three kids sharing the house and it was perfect for our needs - spacious, clean and comfortable. There was also enough space to be able to entertain other families without being cramped. Would happily stay at Jack’s Shack again.

Nice property and location. Well cleaned. Due to a problem of late communication we were not aware that bed sheets were required so we had to purchase them on the way down.

Perfect spot for family mountain getaway
Jacks Shak was so well set up. Easy to find everything. Great space for two families of four and room for more. Loved the outdoor setting for meals with the big long tables and comfy chairs. BBQ was easy to use. Toilet paper, hand towels and hand soap were supplied. Lots of thoughtful touches that made it easier to relax and enjoy. Nespresso coffee machine was appreciated. Half hour drive to the yarrangobilly caves and thermal pool for a wonderful day out. Neat and clean throughout. We had a family of peacocks visited one morning, king parrots across the road. Lots of kangaroos were seen in our walks around the village. Was a delightful weekend for all. Thanks so much

Best house we have stayed in in Talbingo
Jack’s Shack was just as advertised. It was a lot bigger than all other houses we have stayed in in Talbingo. Spotlessly clean and the milk in the fridge was a welcoming touch.

Best house in Talbingo
Best house in Talbingo that we have stayed in. Worth paying that little extra (compared to others). Only thing missing was a carport which you only notice when you are loading and unloading car in rain, but driveway is right next to door anyway.

Absolutely perfect house for our stay. Comfy Beds, Very large rooms and suited us 7 adults especially having two toilets. Great location, easy town access to shops and local club. Only suggestion a can opener and some salt n pepper would have been nice, however not a big issue, just a suggestion :) TY so much Stephen xx
