SMITHS LAKE For those wanting to enjoy still waters instead of the open ocean, Smiths Lake is the number one choice in the Pacific Palms area. Shrouded by a lush littoral forest and neatly separated from the sea by Sandbar Beach, this is a family favourite for those eager to enjoy a spot of water-skiing, boating, paddling or windsurfing (the open lake waters making for a windsurfer’s dream!). With an impressive catchment area spanning 32 square kilometers and waterways of 11 square kilometres you can enjoy all the benefits of this unique, tucked-away calm waterway. However, should you feel a pull for the waves, the picturesque Cellito Beach can be accessed via a boardwalk at the northern end of Sandbar Beach.

Lovely Little Beach Shack
Suzie & Magrao Blake - 14th February 2022Lovely little beach shack- sitting on the veranda you are literally in a forest which is beautiful. Nice new kitchen and bathroom. Very bohemian vibe. Smiths Lake and the whole region is beautiful
The Shaka Shack has everything you need and want for a getaway. My partner and I stayed two nights and it was extremely comfortable and a treat to be inside. Great kitchen facilities and super clean. Local shops are a short walk and Blueys etc. are a few km's up the road. Would recommend!
Loved my stay at the shaka shack. A awesome house in a relaxing part of town. Loved the location - close to shops and beaches. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a tranquil getaway. Thanks!
Great little shack in walking distance to lake and shops. The styling is great and a very lovely kitchen overlooking some lovely bush. We loved our stay and would certainly come back.
Such a cool space and excellent reno of a gorgeous retro surf shack. We loved the style of the house and it’s in a lovely spot surrounded by bushland. A bit of warning if you’re a light sleeper or travelling with kids that the tin roof is really loud (I couldn’t hear my partner talking 30cm away from me, that’s how loud it was) when it rains - we had a baby with us so that wasn’t a great combination. Wasn’t the fault of the owners at all, just the weather, but figured it was worth mentioning if you’re planning to come with a baby! The rest of the place was just so cute, we enjoyed the DVD collection too :)
The Shaka Shack is a gorgeous little two bedroom place that exceeded our expectations. The renovations from old to new are impressive. Little touches made our time all the more enjoyable. We will definitely be returning.
Super cute, stylish space in a beautiful location!
Absolutely beautiful! Spotlessly clean and everything you could think off for an amazing stay ???? would go back in a heart beat!
Such a beautiful place surrounded by nature. Quiet neighbourhood and a good location. Can not fault it! Highly recommend for rnr.
Was a good stay, definitely necessary to have a car as local taxis unavailable in the area and limited transport options. Good if you want a remote retreat and you’d probably want to stay in warmer months
The house was super cute inside and out! While the simplicity was refreshing, keep in mind that there is no service, wifi, dishwasher or laundry. Appreciated the wide variety of films and the local coffee shops.
All round a fab stay!! The only two things to note are that the bathtub was a deal breaker for us and unfortunately there was never enough hot water for a bath. Same with showers, make them quick before they are cold. Also, the front blind was broken on our arrival and missed the morning sunlight. Minor details for a great location and place to stay!!!
Cute, stylish accomodation in a great location. Great spot for a coastal getaway!
Very clean and welcoming little place in such a lovely green setting, tastefully renovated to be light and bright with loads of comfort and character. Electric heaters kept the place toasty and super sweet to come home to. Such a comfort to have such a high standard of cleanliness and complimentary sanitiser upon arrival during such an unnerving time. Also not mentioned in the description is the little DVD collection and player which was a bonus. Can’t rate this place enough!????????????
Beautiful place to stay. Gorgeous styling. Wonderful surroundings for nature lovers ????
A great stay, perfect private location and under 10 minutes to the beaches. Warm and inviting, plus the DVD collection is stellar. A great spot to spend the weekend and unwind.
Perfectly little shack for a chilled out, phones off, surfs up weekend!
Rebecca - 7th October 2019Positive: The place is so beautiful and peaceful! It really had everything we needed to really switch off and chill out. The beds were really comfy and the view out the back with the sound of birds was perfect.Negative: The sofa was a little petite but the beanbag and hanging chair got good use!
