Summary: Images depicting the shack accomodation are accurate. The accommodation was clean on the inside, had a rustic shack like eclectic charm. Everything was comfortable including the bedding. If you made use of the wood heater and heater for the bedroom you are kept warm and cosy which is the whole shack vibe. The accomodation was located next door to the Arthur Rive4 Takeaway and store - the only food take away and store in town which was convenient, as we didn’t bring items for lunches. If you elect to stay check if they are open as the hours of the store vary with the seasons. We stayed in early October School vacation period and the store was open Thursday through to Saturday.The shack is located across the road from the Parks and Wildlife campsite and ranger “station”. It was generally quiet but Saturday morning things pick up with the arrival of the all terrain vehicle crowd visiting to take their buggies onto tracks and the beach. The host provides good wifi internet and some games and books for guests. If you like a TV there isn’t one.My wife enjoyed a hot outside bath which was a treat.The yard was fenced and kept our two dogs in. We had plenty of space inside for our dogs bedding on the floor. The host provided plenty of firewood for our three night stay which we were grateful for as it was cold at night.Wombats and wallabies visit the property at night.Kitchen equipped for simple meals.Make sure you visit Marrawah Perriwinkle Beach .
