Bass Vista allows us to escape from the world! We LOVE the location for its quiet solitude and our most favourite thing to do is to sit on the balcony and take in the most magnificent 180 degree views of the waters of Bass Strait and Gunnamatta Beach while sipping on a cocktail. Our children love the garden and its huge trampoline where they can play in the secure fenced garden. They flit in and out of their own lounge downstairs and watch some TV when they want to mix things up. There are so many places to walk and wonder at the native flora and fauna (walk the Bushrangers Bay track in the late afternoon for an encounter with a Kangaroo as they leap from the lower ground to the upper right across your path). From the Cape Schanck lighthouse car park, there is a network of scenic walks and 200 metres east of Cape Schanck is the lookout where Bushrangers Bay Walk commences along the cliff tops of this untouched coastline. Along Main Creek is the Two Bay Walking Track stretching 26km through the countryside of the Mornington Peninsula. For all things food, we head to the village of FLINDERS a short drive away and especially Pier Provedore. Here we grab coffee and provisions for dinner at home. For a special evening, we head to the RACV Cape Schanck Resort where we grab a cocktail in the bar lounge and then eat at either Cape Restaurant or Samphire to complete our luxury escape. PAWfect What fun! a new house to visit that lets four-legged friends like me sleep inside. Yay! a garden with tall fences to keep me safe. Love the trees and bushes, there are lots of interesting smells. Are those possums in the trees? And there's a special basket just for me. No way! What's in there? Ooh, ooh! a treat from PAWDINKUM. I LOVE THIS PLACE. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Internet access ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Breakfast available for a fee ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Firepit - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![A heated pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34280000/34271300/34271287/3fcd782f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Seabank Sanctuary Luxury home ideal for families and friends to relax and enjoy Barwon Heads - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 14 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-23&endDate=2025-12-24&selected=34271287&PinnedHotelID=34271287&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109800000/109797900/109797828/d752fdc8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxurious Beach House with Breath-taking Views Ocean Grove - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-23&endDate=2025-12-24&selected=109797828&PinnedHotelID=109797828&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99760000/99758500/99758479/b3b84f9a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bass Ocean Sunsets Cape Schanck Cape Schanck - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 3 reviews CA $1,895 CA $1,895 total includes taxes & fees Dec 14 - Dec 15 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-14&endDate=2025-12-15&selected=99758479&PinnedHotelID=99758479&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102700000/102691700/102691644/0f424ba1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### TJ's Tree House with Ocean Views Cape Schanck - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 3 reviews CA $1,027 CA $1,027 total includes taxes & fees Dec 10 - Dec 11 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-10&endDate=2025-12-11&selected=102691644&PinnedHotelID=102691644&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/95000000/94860000/94854600/94854551/4cf0379f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxe Coastal Retreat - Ocean Views, Golf Courses, Hot Springs & Winery Heaven Cape Schanck - Ocean view - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-23&endDate=2025-12-24&selected=94854551&PinnedHotelID=94854551&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Pets Pets allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed Onsite parties or group events are strictly prohibited Host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector with you on the trip Host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property This property is managed through our partner, Vrbo.
