Secluded beach, native bush--Clearwater Haven inc towels and linen

Get from it all without being too far from the essentials! Overlooking the clear waters of Nepean Bay, this attractive, fully self-contained holiday house is located next to a secluded, 7km long sandy beach. Clearwater Haven is situated on 107 acres of gorgeous countryside, including more than 30 acres of natural bushland with large gum trees and abundant native wildlife. Imagine gazing into the sunset from the front deck while kangaroos and wallabies graze and the occasional echidna strolls by.

Built in 2011, Clearwater Haven has modern, open plan living and plenty of room for three sets of friends, two small families or a large family. With three bedrooms, Clearwater Haven comfortably sleeps up to 6 adults and two infants in 2 queens, 2 singles and 2 cots.

Luxury Sheridan linen, bath towels and beach towels are provided; cot linen available on request. All bedrooms have blackout blinds as well as curtains to ensure a peaceful country sleep.

No need to pack the kitchen sink--the kitchen has all the essentials, including welcome coffee, tea and milk, and all the crockery you need to cook up a storm. A dishwasher, full oven, microwave, toaster and washing machine mean you can settle in for a longer stay with the comforts of home. Dishwashing and laundry detergents as well as hand and body soap mean less to remember to pack. The split bathroom (shower & full-sized bath, toilet and sink all separate) perfect for families.

The house is a short 200 meter walk through native vegetation to the beautiful sandy beach and calm waters of Nepean Bay, perfect for boating, fishing, swimming, kayaking or just strolling along the sands. At low tide, warm shallow pools perfect for small children form. A Council-maintained boat launch is only 1km away.

Clearwater Haven is child-friendly, with two cots, a highchair and a booster seat, and two types of baby baths. Thoughtful extras like children’s dishes, cutlery, a nightlight and a non-slip mat for bathing older children make it that bit easier to travel with children. Books, toys and children's DVDs help keep little ones happy when the rest of the family is relaxing.

At Clearwater Haven, you can bushwalk to your heart's content through native grass trees and mature gums. Or maybe after adventuring to Kangaroo Island's famous Remarkable Rocks and Seal Bay, you'd like a quiet day in, spending some time with family or friends while enjoying our selection of board games, movies and books. If you like to fish, you can try your luck with a fishing rod from the beach or launch a small boat.

In the evenings, enjoy a glass from one of Kangaroo Island's famous wineries on our large entertainment deck while cooking up the day's catch on our barbecue.

This eco-friendly, off-grid home has ample solar power and rainwater.

The property is centrally located only 40 minutes to the ferry terminal, 20 minutes to Kangaroo Island's main town, Kingscote, and 15 minutes to the restaurants in American River. The ferry or a short flight from Melbourne or Adelaide will get you to Kangaroo Island and a car will be needed to get around the Island. Like much of the Island, Clearwater Haven is on an unpaved road maintained by the council. We don't have a 4 wheel drive vehicle and only recommend renting one if you plan to try to go off-road.

We keep our calendar up to date, so if dates are available on our calendar, feel confident booking.

A Hidden Gem
Thank you Ori for letting us spend 5 nights at your beautiful part of the world. The house had everything we needed. It was comfy & homely. We spent hours on the balcony enjoying the peace & quiet and watching the superb wrens and numerous other species of birds including black cockatoo, also the kangaroos, turkeys and even an echidna. There were countless varieties of native shrubs & trees many in flower. Where else in the world these days can you have a beautiful deserted sandy beach at your doorstep and no traffic noise!! A great base to explore the island. We will be telling our friends. Kind regards, Jan, Trevor, Keith & Julie.

Our family had an amazing stay at Clearwater Haven. The property was clean and well equipped, and the location is spectacular! Just a short walk to a beautiful clear beach perfect for kids. The short nature walk within the property was also very enjoyable. Communication with Ori was great, and her tips for things to do was very helpful and informative.

Nice peaceful place
Enjoyed our second stay at this house, nice and secluded but also a good position to see the sights on the island. Having the toilet, bath/shower, and sink separate makes it easy to share the one restroom between four adults. We saw kangaroos, turkeys, a wallaby, and a monitor lizard from the front porch.

Kangaroo Island Haven
Enjoyed our stay at Clearwater Haven cottage. Very clean and tidy. Good location. First time off grid using solar power. All good. Has gas for cooking and water heating. Lovely walks along beach. Weather cooler than Mainland - car always said 18 degrees (November) but we had jackets etc. No rain. Stayed 4 days and saw most of Kangaroo Island - rented a car on the island. No public transport. Loved the low key vibe, fields of wheat, Raptor Domain, Flinders Chase Park, Penneshaw Sculpture Walk, American River, Stoke Beach (for a swim) Kingscote Museum etc. Saw seals,sea lions, penguins, koalas , kangaroos, wallabies goanna’s in the wild. Met some lovely KI locals.

Amazing stay!
Our stay was magical! The house is beautiful and well appointed. Kitchen was well equipped, there weee a ton of board games and a good collection of DVD’s to watch. It was easy to find, even in the dark. Ori was very quick to respond to our only issue-a swarm of bees was trying to find a new home on the front deck. He called a local bee keeper who was out the same day to rehome them. We saw kangaroos in the back yard on the first morning, a koala and enchilada on our first walk. The birds were beautiful and everywhere. We stayed up to watch the stars every night. If we are every fortunate enough to come back to KI, we will stay here.

The property was amazing. We had days of unprecedented rain and gale force winds and we were warm, comfortable and dry. We ventured out when we could but loved returning to such a beautiful property. We had visits from beautiful blue wrens potoroos, tamar wallabies, kangaroos and birdlife galore.

We loved this very clean and well appointed house in a very quiet part of the island. 100m from a private beach where the only other swimmers were the pelicans. Seemingly very remote but actually quite close to key island neighbourhoods. Just note no wifi on the site.
