The Jetty at Cowan Cowan

The Jetty was built during WW2 and has undergone a major renovation resulting in this modern, quirky beachfront property, with 2-bedroom,1 bathroom which can accommodate 4 guests comfortably.
The lounge is separate from the dining/kitchen, which opens up onto a deck with beautiful views of your private beach. There is also a BBQ and a large lawn complete with a fire pit perfect for those winter nights, where you can relax with a drink and toast some marshmallows.

The house is completely off grid and runs on solar power and batteries. All water for the house is from rainwater collected in rainwater tanks.

The Jetty would be ideal for a that special occasion!!

A delightful stay by the bay
We loved the neat and tidy cottage with water frontage. Everything was as we expected and Colleen was a delight to talk to as we sorted out the details. We'd stay here again for sure.

Have stayed in Cowan Cowan many times this place is amazing everything you need it’s right on the beach. Extremely comfortable and clean. Will definitely be back. Fire pit out front plenty of space for car. Lots of games and dvds. Great little spot to sit out side with bbq. Lots of effort put into this. Great views.

Great stay
We had a lovely time. House is in a great spot and well equipped. We were even lucky enough to see dolphins and a whale from the back deck and dugongs swimming at the beach out the front.

Perfect
The BOM said there was a cyclone offshore with a massive surf warning and Cowen Cowen was still perfect. I’m almost hesitant to leave such a positive review because I don’t actually want other people knowing how great it is.... shhh, keep it secret. I’ve been visiting the island all my life, camped, stayed at bulwer, at tangalooma.... Cowen Cowen is by far the most serene and the Jetty was absolutely perfect for our family of four. Wish we could have stayed longer....sigh I use to fly around the country for a living, I’ve travelled as far North as Cairns and down South to Tassie, SA, lived in the West for 5 years, up to Broome. But this is where I choose to take my family to get away from it ALL.
