Jan 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Bush Beach Stay Great location, quite yet easily accessible to local beaches and Shoal Bay town centre. Colleen is a great host, accommodating and easy to communicate with. Beds super comfy, house has plenty of space for our group of 9. Well equipped with lots of little extras available for our use. Highly recommend if you want to be out of the hustle and bustle of the town yet close enough to walk. Loved our stay :) ##### Christine S.
