The Salty Duck | Walk to Beach + Pet Friendly

Summary:

Welcome to The Salty Duck, a spacious, relaxed Surf Beach escape perfect for families, groups, and guests travelling with pets. The home offers five bedrooms, three bathrooms, two living areas, ocean views and plenty of space to enjoy time together.



Sleeps up to 8 guests with linen and bath towels included.



The Space:

The Salty Duck is designed for relaxed family holidays, with plenty of room for everyone to spread out while still offering great spaces to come together.



The main living area connects the lounge, dining and fully equipped kitchen, with access to the verandah where you can enjoy ocean views and hear the waves in the background. A second living area downstairs provides another space to relax, and the home has split-system air conditioning both upstairs and downstairs for year-round comfort.



Families will love the dedicated walk-in nook stocked with children's books, games and puzzles, while the undercover ping pong table adds another fun option for both kids and adults.



Outside, a large covered entertaining area with outdoor dining, a gas BBQ, and a fully fenced backyard makes the home ideal for guests travelling with pets.



One of the biggest advantages of The Salty Duck is its location. Surf Beach, Wimbie Beach, the local café, IGA, bottle shop, chemist, pizza shop and playground are all within easy walking distance, so there is really no need to get the car out if you don't want to. Wimbie Beach is also a year-round dog-friendly beach, making it especially convenient for guests travelling with pets.



With five bedrooms, three bathrooms and a full laundry, the home works particularly well for families, groups and longer stays.

The Neighborhood:

One of the best things about staying at The Salty Duck is how much you can enjoy without needing to get back in the car.



Surf Beach is within easy walking distance, along with the local café, IGA, bottle shop, chemist, pizza shop and children's playground. Whether you're grabbing morning coffee, picking up groceries, ordering dinner or heading down to the beach, everything you need for a relaxed coastal stay is close by.



You can also walk to Wimbie Beach, a beautiful smaller beach just south of Surf Beach and a designated year-round off-leash dog area – a great bonus for guests travelling with their four-legged family members.



Surf Beach itself offers grassy areas, children's play equipment and access to the Munjip coastal trail, making it easy to enjoy the coastline on foot.



For those wanting to explore further, Batemans Bay, Mogo, Malua Bay and many of the Eurobodalla's beaches and attractions are only a short drive away. The Mogo mountain bike trail network is also within easy driving distance.



Getting Around:

You really can park the car and relax at The Salty Duck.



Surf Beach, Wimbie Beach, the local shops, café, IGA, bottle shop, chemist, pizza shop and playground are all within easy walking distance.

Overpriced

Not a bad house. Tv reception (not good) Bins are supposed to be emptied by previous tenants (but weren't, they were full) not good when your there over Christmas. Over $3000 for five nights - overpriced. Maybe half that price and it would have been worth it. Shame.
