Wonderful wildlife
The home is comfortable and gorgeous and we loved the wood heater as it was cold enough to use it and we have one like it at home. Proximity to Flinders Chase NP was important for us and the lovely beach was readily accessible for long walks. But what we loved most were the wallabies that came down to the cottage every afternoon for a feed - they were very entertaining and we loved feeding and watching them.

Great stay
A well located property with everything we needed. Comfortable beds and a great outlook to the bush, good amenities and modern stove etc. On the day we arrived, there were lots of mosquitoes and small flies but no insect spray, so we would advise future guests to be certain to bring this. (There was repellent but this wasn’t what we needed). Our only other problem was all the non-stick cookware, which was way beyond its use by date and too deteriorated to use. These were just small things however, and we would definitely recommend this accommodation.

A great place to stay. Stick up with groceries etc before coming to the island. Be prepared for long driving distances on Kangaroo Island. But beautiful location.

Beautiful hideaway
This is a beautifully designed house in a great location near the beach, away from it all. Loved the endless wildlife visits. Liked the little details such as the custom visitor's book. Thanks for a wonderful few days. Highly recommended.

Supershak was super!
The Supershak is a very comfortable and well thought out holiday home in the most perfect location. Our family consists of children aged 6-17years and they all loved the place. Highlights of course were the wide open planning living looking onto the wildlife, comfy beds, the coffee machine, the honesty shop across the road, location close to the beach, 1km to the local store, 3kms to the jetty and close to Sahara dunes, Harriet river and Flinders Chase NP. We had the most aamzing family holiday. We will be back!

The perfect spot
We absolutely loved this spot as our home base on KI. Perfect amount of space for everyone to be able to have a little quiet personal space after our days of adventure. Well appointed and comfortable. Amazing windows and light which allows you to enjoy the show of the wallabies outside. My kids (and who am I kidding...I) enjoyed feeding them and watching their antics throughout our stay. Just a short walk to a gorgeous beach at Vivonne Bay. Catherine was wonderful in her responses and getting back to us quickly with any questions we had. We wouldn't hesitate to return.

Breakfast with wallabies
The Supa Shak was in a fabulous position on Kangaroo Island. Walking distance to the beach. A very useable house layout for our family with good indoor and outdoor spaces. We had one very very hot day and the airconditioner was totally ineffectual. With small children in the house this was a problem and sadly we had no response from the owner to our email on this matter. Loved the wildlife around the house everyday and the little "shop" across the road

Very comfortable and appealing accommodation nestled in a bush settling.
The Shak was a lovely and very cosy place to stay. The amenities inside were excellent. We were all enjoyed staying there and it had an appealing inside/outside quality to it. It’s a great spot to stay and for exploring that part of KI. Our host generously allowed us to arrive a bit early which we really appreciated.

Great setup for family but would be equally as good for romantic trip away. Lots of wildlife on your back door. Close to the beach. Amazing little town, great cafe nearby. Would definitely come back.
