Beachside Family Surf Retreat
A unique opportunity to stay in one of Carlton`s premier family homes surrounded by nature. A house set up for fun for everyone. Enjoy the private path to the beach, an outdoor fire pit, and a large kitchen and outdoor entertaining area. End the day with a soak in the bathtub and a game of ping pong. This place has it all and is only available for a short while!
We are the last house before arriving at Steeles Island Reserve and the Carlton River Mouth. The property has its own private walkway to the beach through the reserve, surf and boogie board to borrow, a hot outdoor shower, fire pit, pingpong table, indoor soaking tub, large outdoor deck with bbq, and an open plan kitchen. The beds are cozy and there are plenty to sleep the whole gang.

We had a fantastic stay, I was looking to stay at a place to create family memories for my six grandchildren and this worked out perfectly! The close proximity to the beach which was a short walk along a bush track was the highlight the kids loved it. Also toasting marshmallows around the fire, and enjoying the musical instruments were a hit as well. It was relaxing, the house had everything we needed and had a lovely feel about it. We plan on going back in the future and will look forward to that
