A return trip to Blue Haven having first stayed in 2024. Great for both us and our dog, who prefers outside. The covered deck can be closed off to contain him overnight and the yard is fully fenced and good for play. The cottage suits us perfectly. Small kitchen but Iluka has plenty of eating places. Tatum is a great host. Lots of informative literature for guests, although not all is current.

Loved the location… great for our furry friends with lots of places to walk and exercise. House was clean and functional, beds comfortable and well fitted out. We travel to Queensland a couple of times a year and will consider this a regular stop in the future. Cheers

Cozy, Coastal and Canine Friendly

Simple little coastal getaway! Just a 2-minute walk to the river and a quick drive to both the dog friendly beach and the calmer swimming spot at The Bluff. The location was convenient - bakery, takeaway and the new Sedgers Reef Hotel were all a short walk. The yard is fully fenced and grassy, with a gated porch. No carpet, easy to keep clean and everything as advertised.
