Shore Thing Absolute Waterfront - Currarong. Luxury, family friendly beach house

Welcome to Shore Thing where you can turn your holiday into an unforgettable memory. Enjoy luxury accommodation, fabulous views and scenery, spectacular fishing, bush-walking, snorkelling, surfing, water sports and more.
Meticulously renovated to the highest standard and family friendly: it is everything a beach escape should be. Shore Thing is so homely you won't want to leave. That is until you look outside.
The house is built on the edge of a lagoon with stunning 180 degree views to the ocean. You can swim, fish, paddle-board and kayak right from your back door step. Or sit back on the deck and view the daily parade of holiday activity: from paddle-boarders at high tide to soldier crabs at low tide.
Shore Thing has everything an old-fashioned family holiday needs: most of which are easily accessible by foot.
Zac's Place for fish and chips is a few minutes stroll away but it's hard to beat BBQing on the deck with parakeets and kookaburras dropping in, pelicans gliding onto the lagoon and the sun setting below the horizon.
Shore Thing is so homely you won't want to leave. There are 5 spacious bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 living areas and a billiard room. It has a fully equipped galley kitchen and a sun-drenched deck with a BBQ, overlooking the water. It caters to a maximum of 12 guests.
It's a double-storey house, there's another secluded deck downstairs with a day-bed and lounge setting. There's plenty of private spaces for everyone.

UPSTAIRS:-

There are three bedrooms upstairs.The master has a king bed with an ensuite and a private deck that overlooks the water.

There are two other bedrooms upstairs: one has a queen bed & the other a trio bunk - they both share a bathroom.
A magnificent open plan gourmet kitchen and living area with TV opens up onto a huge deck with BBQ and panoramic views over Currarong lagoon, the mountains and the main beach. Everything you need is at your fingertips

Ipod docking/CD player,52" screen TV, Foxtel

There's an outside shower, which is perfect for rinsing off after a swim.

Shore Thing is situated in the sleepy outpost of Currarong: a quiet seaside village where time stands still. It is 2.5 hours drive from Sydney and 2.5 hours from Canberra. The beaches are beautiful, peaceful and uncrowded. There are excellent bush-walks in the National Park at Beecroft Head, where you can spot dolphins and whales and explore the shipwreck of the SS Merimbula.
Visit Point Perpendicular light house at Beecroft Peninsular with spectacular views over Jervis Bay. Discover the stunning secluded white sand beaches such as Long Beach and Honeymoon Bay at Jervis Bay, just 10 minutes drive away.
Everything in Currarong is walking distance from the house. The General Store is a few minutes up the road. It has food and supplies, take-away food, a bottle shop and a restaurant called Zac's Place. There's a Bowling Club with pool tables , a bar and a Chinese.
bistro.
The closest shopping centre is 10 minutes away at Callala Beach, with an IGA and a variety of other shops. Nowra is half an hour away with supermarkets and a shopping centre.

Perfect location for a family getaway
We loved our stay here. The location is perfect, and we were able to fish and paddle board directly from the back steps. We had 12 people in total ranging from 6 to 80yrs old and it was amazing that the grandparents could relax on the balcony and watch the kids have fun in the water. The pool table got a LOT of use as well. It's a beautifully presented house, very clean and a great layout of bedrooms allowing everyone to have their own space. We'd love to come back again.

Location & amenities great - but cleaniness & maintenance issues let this lovely place down.
Family 3 day getaway. The house and location were great. Plenty of room for all of us and bedrooms were cozy. Unfortunately there were issues around cleanliness & maintenance that let this property down. Under the main lounge was covered in a very thick layer of crumbs & dust (including a mouldy piece of half eated donut). Which was found whilst looking for one of my grandchild's toys. The main lounge itself & it's many scatter cushions were al a bit grubby & need a wash (making it uncomfortable to sit on). Kitchen fridge door seals are all in need of replacement, making it difficult to close the doors properly. There was a cochroach infestation in the downstairs area, crawling over the pool table and beds durtge night. The lights downstairs kept shorting out & there are loose (not working PowerPoint's in the main bedroom). So there are definitely some electrical issues going on! Lastly, there is a very musty smell in the house, but once ALL windows were opened to air it out, it did dissipate a little. I believe these issues should be addressed. Quite disappointed really. Shore-Thing definitely need to lift their game.

Wonderful time
We were 3 families with children ages ranging from 11months,-5 years. Our kids had an amazing time without resorting to technology. The river was at our fingertips - high tide we swam and paddle boarded and low tide we walked across to the beach and swam and played in the rock pools. Walking distance as well to the club and take away. The house had everything we needed..was clean and well stocked The Owners were helpful especially when we had a few requests around our youngest guest. Would recommend with or without kids. Amazing house

Post wedding stay.
Currarong is an amazing spot and the house is in a brilliant location, looking out over the creek to the beach. It easily accommodated 10 adults and was very well equipped. We walked to some amazing beaches from the house and watched whales breaching off the shore. I would highly recommend this property
