McCrae, the perfect stay. Short walk to beach plus beautiful bay views

Enjoy the best of both worlds, this property is an easy walk to the beach and also boasts great bay views.

Our property is a short walk down the road to McCrae's gorgeous beach. We have an open plan living area which enjoys a stunning bay view. There is a huge balcony facing Port Phillip Bay where you can enjoy the McCrae lighthouse and the shipping channel . On clear days the You Yangs and Melbourne are also visible.

The house has been renovated. It is light, modern with polished floorboards throughout, whilst still retaining the house's original charm.

There is a large enclosed back garden for kids and dogs to enjoy. We have a trampoline, swing set and sandpit.

Top storey compromises of 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and open plan kitchen / dining / lounge area.

Bedroom 2# 2 single beds plus trundle
Bedroom 3# 2 sets of bunk beds

Downstairs consists of another bedroom, bathroom, games room and laundry. (1 queen bed and 2 double sofa beds)

The house easily lends itself to 2 families, as downstairs has its own separate entrance and bathroom. Kitchen and laundry areas would be shared. Please note: no internal staircase.

The house is located up the road from the lighthouse. The beach is, at most, a 5 minute walk. 3 restaurants (Greek, Italian, Thai - all excellent and really popular) and 2 cafes are at the bottom of the street and the McCrae Plaza is walking distance or a 2 minute drive.

This is a perfect property to enjoy an extended stay or a relaxing weekend away. 1 hours drive from Melbourne makes McCrae an easy getaway.

Amazing stay
We booked this house as a base for our family for our wedding in McCrae. It was a great house, with lots of space and amazing views from the balcony. The downstairs area was entirely separate, which was great for escaping for a bit while all the prep was going on. Thank you so much for having us!

The perfect place to stay for a family group
Our group comprised of ten consisted of four families - grandparents, adult children and spouses, and grandchildren. We were thrilled with the accommodation which catered for all of our needs. It is a lovely renovated property with a sunny aspect and a great balcony (deck) to take in the amazing sunsets. Plenty to keep the children occcupied and Arthurs Seat and The Enchanted Maze and Gardens are nearby. Highly recommended

A fabulous beach holiday with family
A great house that comfortably fit 8 adults, 1 baby and the dogs without feeling cramped. Great backyard fully enclosed for the dogs. Well equipped kitchen with lots of space to entertain. Lovely space for big family dinners in the dinning room or on the verandah with coastal views. Beautiful beach within walking distance, that had off leash dog areas. The beach was shallow and perfect for kids and dogs.

Great short break
The house was everything we wanted and well set up for six siblings. The location was excellent with the shops and beach a shortish walk away. The sunny deck had a great view of the ocean and was large enough for everyone to sit and watch the cargo ships and sailing craft go by. Will certainly recommend this property to others.

We found the property perfect for our needs, 7 adults, one toddler and 3 dogs, so the large enclosed garden was great, close to the beach too. The view from the balcony made it easy to while away an evening . Thank you.
