About this property
Famous Riverton Surf Shack
Wanting accommodation that offers an experience rather than just a bed? The Surf Shak is perfect for people that have a sense of adventure and a love of the unique. Only a couple of minutes walk to the beach, most days you can hear the sea from bed.
The Surf Shak is a separate sleep-out, with a number of its own amenities plus a bathroom shared in the main house. One double bed is situated on its own floor, looking out to the trees (access via ladder) or there is also a double pull out couch.
The Shak has been decorated over time by Owner and resident artist Wayne of the Hill and various other Surf shak guests. Just looking around would keep you entertained. We would love you to add your own artist touch too!
**If you're used to a life of luxury the surf shak may not be for you!!
Paddle boards and Surf boards are avaliable by arrangement with Wayne who will take you for a lesson first (safety)
Basic camp style cooking- mini fridge, kettles etc.
Situated in a quiet street in our own little lovely Southern Paradise (don't tell too many people) Riverton is one of Southland's real gems. A seaside fishing village with a strong arts and community vibe. The sea is our haven!
No lock on building
Must be able to climb ladder to the loft style bed- you can request couch to be made up instead (if booking for 1 or 2)
Wayne lives in the main house and is often available if you have any questions or feel like a chat.
