Nothing "Classic" about this Shack
Beware. The Classic Shack is without doubt the worst Stayz listed property we have had the misfortune to book. The online photos are misleading and deceptive. The light and airy shots are not representative of the old dark dingy and smelly joy that awaits you. We arrived, entered the property, chose not to stay and drove straight home, ruining our planned stay at Point Turton. What a dump.

Comfortable Shack with beautiful Beachfront View
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the second time we have stayed at 'Classic Shack' in the last 3 years. So beautiful to wake up to the sun rising over the ocean in the morning and choosing to sit and watch from inside or walk 30 seconds out onto the beach. Facilities are fairly basic but good and clean and met all we needed. The place is a little cold at night but there is airconditioning (we didnt use) & blankets (The bed is comfortable & has a warm quilt). It would be helpful to have a microwave (for heating heat packs) however bringing hot waterbottles satisfied that need. It is a 10-15min walk to the jetty & pub. Pub was great (remember to book). We would stay here again.

Tranquility!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: As usual, we totally enjoy this place and its location.On this occasion though, we were disappointed with how clean the place was when we arrived. The front decking wasn't as clean as normal, along with inside. It looked that no sweeping was done at all prior to our arrival. Once again, the gas bottle was empty and when we went to use the oven, we found it has one setting and no other (just 200 degrees).My rant though, has little point, as we will always head back to this little classic of a place.

A little slice of paradise
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfectly named, this is a Classic Shack! Simple accomodation right on the beach (mostly rocky, lots to explore) with only a path in front. It was warm enough with the split system (maybe a little chilly in the bathroom), and had most things we needed inc oil, salt etc. The bathroom sink is tiny but we just used the kitchen sink to wash in. Could do with another wine glass and an extra saucepan (as there are only 1 of each).There is a small store with essentials a short walk away, a pub about 20 mins walk away and an IGA a 20 min drive away. We loved the peace and tranquility, sitting on the deck is magical, it was a perfect escape for us (family of 4 with 2 teens) and we will be back!
