This is our 2sd time staying at Jacks shack. We love it here so much and family who came to visit us also were all full of compliments about the shack. Easy walking distance to beach and shops and a huge bonus is the large parking spac.
This is a place to stay, it has everything you could possibly need, close to everything, very comfortable and affordable. Had a little trouble getting the code for keys though but sorted out. Many thanks to Cathy Smeeton, for her patience
Great place to have a relaxing holiday 1 street off from the beach
Very pet safe and friendly
Would be nice to have a bigger mirror instead of a 30cm round one that’s way to high to see anything ha
We had some difficulty opening the key box. Other older guests may find a similar situation. We were not able to open the box easily. Not a big problem as we and our dogs loved our stay with you.

Michael & Mary
Perfect location and secure parking for vehicle and boat behind gates. Unit very clean and tidy with everything you require. Our bluey loved his own little yard and patio to sleep on after a big day out on the water. Only a short walk to the beachfront via a walkway. Excellent
So clean and comfortable with everything we needed. Perfect with our Golden Retriever with the fully fenced yard. We walked to the cafes, the beach and the pub for dinner.
Jacks Shack is a well appointed house which has everything you could desire except wifi but bring it with you. 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.
We absolutely loved staying at Jacks Shack and did not want to leave! Comfy bed, lots of room for parking, lovely undercover seating bbq area, dishwasher and the list goes on!
The neighbour in the front unit is so friendly too! Will be back :)

About the host
Hosted by Cath Smeeton
Building memories is so important as you never know how long you or your loved ones are here for. There is no better way to build memories than spending time at the beach swimming, reading a book, taking the dogs for a swim, doing a spot of fishing of the river banks and jetty or being out on a boat with family and friends.
Why they chose this property
Jack's Shack is our place to build new memories, after loosing our son Jack to suicide at the tender age of 21. Jack loved to fish and be outdoors, so Jack's Shack would have been his dream holiday destination. To reflect his generous nature, we are sharing this beautiful part of the world and his Shack with others. It is a very special place for our family so please come and enjoy it, look after it and love it as much as we do.
What makes this property unique
Come and see it to believe what a special part of the world Burrum Heads is. The Foodworks does the most amazing ice-creams! It's worth coming here just for that!
