Thank you for considering our beautiful Beach home

1.2km to Dog start of lead free beach. Maps in photos show locations well.

Puppies and Pancakes is a ground level , renovated 2 bedroom area . It is ground level with private entry and uncovered driveway, parking for two cars. (Or car and boat/caravan).

This downstairs area has two large sets of bi-fold doors opening to a large fully fenced backyard. Guests have exclusive use of the yard.

We have beautiful upstairs original beach style home main house caretaker/co hosts , who are also friendly love dogs and extremely courteous of our valued guests. However you will hear movement and footsteps upstairs. this does not bother most of our guests but if noise sensitive be aware this is a unit. The yard is 3 sides 6ft timber fencing one small section across driveway entry is standard pool fencing.

This area is NOT Air-conditioned as described in next paragraph


Sit and enjoy all year round sea breezes that flow through the huge bi-fold doors and relax while you and the fur babies can easily walk in and out. This property has a true inside outside experience. The area is fully installed with ceiling fans and the amazing sea breezes keep it a constant temperature Please note for this reason the property is NOT air conditioned, if you are heat sensitive please do not book in summer if you are use to a fully air conditioned home. We find it always cool but we want guests to be fully aware we cool with sea breeze insulation and ceiling fans - With doors closed you loose its daytime magic. we choose to have the bi folds fully open to let the magic in, this includes the sound of the ocean its breeze and much bird life. To use there is a magic to these doors open -

Coolum is a dog friendly town and we are not far from the lead free beach, Maps at end of photos to help you. We can not accommodate cats as there is simply no way of keeping them safe inside with the bifold doors as a main entry point that are not screened

This property does not cater for babies or children under the age of 5. (We have sadly had incidents with the big heavy metal bifold doors and little fingers. It’s too stressful for us and we have no child safety measures in cupboards or way of having the bifold folds safe from little fingers )
This private area is a great size for one or two couples that just want to relax in a quiet neighbourhood; or a single can enjoy all we have to offer. Reminder it’s two bedroom 2 queen beds.

We go above and beyond to ensure the comfort of our guests taking care of all the little things

The backyard is for the sole use of guests and is NOT shared with the upstairs co host, who are also friendly and extremely courteous of our valued guests.

ONLY 1.2KM TO THE START OF ACCESS TO ROAD, LEADING TO THE STUMMERS CREEK DOG LEAD FREE BEACH. We do not go to the end we enter the lead free area at exit 71 way closer to the end - Maps at the end of photos help show you.

Please read our amazing reviews, we love to host and the comfort of our guests and their fur babies is our priority

As much as fur babies are very welcome on this property, it is clear in our house rules they cannot be left unattended to bark they bark when left or suffer anxiety We need to be considerate of our neighbours; when it comes to barking dogs. Please do not lock your dog inside as the sound is only made worse as it will echo.

We allow your dog’s inside as we believe they are family members. We prefer dogs didn’t go on the furniture; however we do understand that some dogs are very used to lying on the couch. If they are accustomed to the finer things in life, we ask that you use the dog blankets and towels provided - However we really appreciate guest that bring their own dog towels and throws to protect our funiture as it saves us a lot of linen washing time. It also helps preserve our furniture and keeps it clean for future guests. This applies to the lounges only as dogs are strictly not permitted on the beds.
DOGS are not permitted on the beds. If your fur baby insists on sleeping with you, then we must know in advance on booking and you are welcome to bring your own linen including your own doona's, we will then strip out beds back to bare mattress protector status as our linen is not for fur baby guest use.


KITCHEN – Equipped with Electric frypan ( Plug in cooktop) , microwave, dishwasher all pots pans etc. Pod coffee machine, , blender, jug and toaster. (Kitchen does not have an oven) we provide a Russel Hobs 30Lt Compact Kitchen Toaster oven and an Airfryer

PANTRY – You will find a range of Tea’s, coffee sugar, cereals and condiments. The Pantry also has basic everyday items such as salt, pepper cooking oil, cook spray, foils and plastic wrap. If you are staying for a few days please check pantry and kitchen draws before you shop you are welcome to use what we provide and is there. We kindly ask guest to replace any of these sorts of items if they use the last of them. It's a courtesy to future guests.

Please note this property is self catering beyond the initial products we supply at the beginning of your stay

FUR BABY Numbers and behavior - YES FURRY family members are allowed inside the unit, please read house rules for full details. We like to keep the bog maximum at 2 dogs per booking, if you have more than two fur family members, then please mention this to us in your booking request and it will be taken into consideration, not always the number of fur babies it is always the behavior that is of concern. Coolum is a very dog friendly town you will find the outside of cafes and restaurants very welcoming of your fur family members and the dog lead free beaches are only 1km away. All details in welcome book. Your Fur baby is not to be left unattended if it barks when unattended; this would be a clear breach of the house rules.
