    After booking - I read the reviews and I now understand most of them. Once you have stayed at Jacks Shack you'll feel not only like it's home away from home, but part of it's greater family.

    We love the shsck. We always come with our own supplies. So we werent too worried that the cleaners didnt get to do there top up of toilet paper etc. The unit was not dirty as the clients before left it in great shape. The dish washer was full but kitchen clean and tidy.We have stayed here a few times now and have always been satified with the fridge size and warm showers and the layout of the unit.We love the lady next door .she is such as wonderful soul. The cleaner came to make sure we were ok and i ensured her we were fine.Thankyou for our little breaks and we will.always be happy to return.

    The duplex suited us , fully fenced and enough room to park our car and boat, Very quiet and a good location. However the unit is in need of a good spring clean, the mat and lounges need cleaning, one of the freezer drawers had food residue on it, the windows on the sliding doors were very dirty and when the sun hits them in the afternoon it was very noticeable, dusty venetian blinds, food scraps on the table underneath the bbq. It is very reasonable priced, and we would return if it was cleaned up and maintained. I have several photos if the owner is interested in me passing them on.

It’s clean, freshly painted, cool throughout, a/c and fans in bedrooms, fan in lounge area. Spacious back yard for car or boat and being pet friendly is the bonus. We will be back, highly recommended this accommodation in Burrum Heads.

    Host is non communicative, and not friendly. House is a unit joined with another, and it’s at the back, with a skinny driveway over 50 metres, with fencing on both sides and I did ask about room for our boat. If you can’t reverse every time you utilised the boat, don’t use this unit. It’s not boat friendly. Furniture is older than me, with stuffing falling out. We organised linen, but apparently she was let go, so we had no sheets or towels for two days, and there was no communication from the owner except to email me, a list the morning before we arrived ( not 24 hours before), of the rules, and how to open the key lock, so I noticed the linen lady had disappeared and had to contact a new person for problems, obviously no linen was my problem. We were woken early on our first day at 7am, solar panels being installed, and trades made a racket on the roof of the first unit, and blocked us getting out. Owners brief message was minimal disturbance, with no apology for organising the installation while we were here. No contact by the owner as a welcome, no how was your stay, instead I got another email with an attached schedule the day before we left, about a meter being installed by the energy company.I replied directly to the host, quite annoyed, only to be finally emailed that I was being rude. My comment was that it really has nothing to do with me, and did they realise we were leaving the next morning. So don’t bring a boat, it’s not a house, host definitely not friendly
