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.

Family Holiday

We booked Blue Haven a year in advance, primarily because it’s dog-friendly. Sadly, our dog passed away before our trip, but if you’re traveling with a pet, this is the perfect place—it’s incredibly accommodating and welcoming to dogs. Tatum was an exceptional host, always just a message away whenever we had a question. The kitchen is well-equipped, making cooking easy, and the house is only a short walk to local shops and the park near the lake. The beds were a bit firm for my taste, and the kids were disappointed there wasn’t Wi-Fi, but it definitely encouraged them to unplug and enjoy the surroundings. Overall, it’s a lovely holiday house—especially if you’re bringing a furry family member along.

Relaxing few nights at the beach

The property is perfectly located for a relaxing beach holiday. The house had everything we needed as well as being super doggy friendly with a good sized secure yard. Iluka is also a lovely friendly beachside town with a great dog beach and the house has really easy access to the river beaches as well (which our dogs loved even more than the beach!).
