Fun Family House King Island

Spend your next King Island holiday in our spacious, renovated home. 85 Main St (on the corner of Main St and Arthur St) is conveniently located 1km from the heart of Currie.


Perfect for families and small groups, this home has room for relaxing or entertaining.
Snuggly sheets, soft pillows, fluffy towels, abundant hot water and plenty of heaters will keep you nice and comfortable during your stay.


Bigger clans will find plenty of beds for all. The house has 2 larger bedrooms with a king bed in one and 2 single beds in the other. The 2 smaller bedrooms have a single bed in each. There is a second king mattress in the sunroom. The mattresses range from firm to soft, to suit all tastes.


The kitchen is well appointed for those who love to cook. We make sure there is a variety of ingredients available for use, as well as milk and coffee pods. Coffee lovers can choose between pod coffee (using compostable pods) or get the cold drip coffee going.


The enormous sunroom is filled with natural light all day. There's room for meals, relaxing, exercising, games, music, arts and crafts or watching a movie. If the weather keeps you inside, the kids can literally climb the walls (sorry adults, the climbing wall is only for supervised kids to use).


The bathroom has bath and shower, with separate toilet. Washer and dryer are found in the laundry.



Outside the house you'll find a large trampoline in the middle of our 8 avocado trees. Veggie gardens and fruit trees provide seasonal ingredients to flavour your cooking, and a very cute greenhouse hosts some more tropical options. Please help yourself to whatever is ready.
Guests have the use of the whole property, with the exception of the garage which is used for storage and not suitable for guest use.
We don't mind if you smoke, we just request that you do it outside and dispose of butts in the bin.
If you can't find a recycling bin, don't worry, there isn't one. Unfortunately our tiny, remote community has limited recycling at this time.


Currie is a laid back town, generally very quiet even if you're on the main road as there is very little traffic. The locals are very friendly and will always give you a wave when they pass.
Our house is a short 1km walk from the Currie town centre and walking distance to Currie harbour, lighthouse, lookouts, big beach and little beach.
There is no public transport on King Island, so you will need to organise a hire car or tour if you want to explore more of this ruggedly beautiful island (and it's worth it!).
Ocean Dunes golf course and our local golfie are close by, but Cape Wickham Links is a fair drive to the top of the island.
Please note, only mobile phones on the Telstra network work on the island. If your phone is with Optus, Vodaphone etc, you will enjoy quiet time on the island as your phone will not work. There is no internet at the house, if you need the internet you can use it at KIRDO (King Island Regional Development Office) or the Library.
If you get hungry after 8pm, you might have to whip up a feast at home. Most restaurants stop serving food by 8, and there is no late night service station to buy essentials.

Good Family Accommodation
. Generally a very good place to stay. Especially for families with small children. It would have been useful to have a guide how to use some of the appliances. Couldn't work the TV in the bedroom (?) Local contact numbers for emergency eg hospital, doctor etc. on a card would be good. Otherwise very happy.
