Much loved family beach house with spectacular views
Prior reviews of this property worried us with reports of poor cleanliness, however this was definitely not our experience.
38 Cooks Cres is one of Rosedale's original homes and one of the few surviving after the shocking 2019 fires. Thank goodness it prevailed - it is an absolutely delightful property, fabulously appointed with spectacular views to the north (all the way across Rosedale main beach) and east (across the causeway to Jimmies Island). Over the years the home is becoming worn with love and affection - but definitely not worn out. Perhaps a lick of paint and some TLC might make a superficial lift, but overall the house has great bones and doesn't lack for anything. Also, impressive track to the beach down the cliff!
A trip highlight was watching a pod of about 4 humpback whales frolicking in the storm and surf. Amazing.
Our large family including two Jack Russells were easily absorbed into this home. Even though it poured with rain for two days, there was plenty of space for everyone to do what they wanted.
Dogs: While there is a fence all round the deck, some latches were broken so the deck is not secure.
BBQ: Clean and well functioning.
Beds and bedrooms: All beautifully appointed with comfy mattresses.
Kitchen: Well supplied with crockery and cutlery and everything an enthusiastic cook could want. Note that the dishwasher isn't brilliant and some previous guests had put dirty dishes stacked under clean ones so we just washed them all at the start.
