Our Story
The first time we stood on this balcony and saw Lake Preston stretching out below, with the national park rolling away to the hills, we knew we'd found our family's place. Now kangaroos wander past at sunrise and the lake turns gold at sunset, and nothing makes us happier than sharing it with your family. - Gracie and Dan

- The gas cooktop and BBQ have separate gas bottles. Turn every burner off after use, and tell us straight away if you smell gas or the gas is low.
Fireplace & Fire Safety (WA fire bans)
- The living room has a wood fireplace. A starter supply of firewood is left for your first fire. After that, please bring your own dry, untreated firewood: firewood isn't supplied beyond the starter.
- Only burn dry, untreated firewood. Never burn rubbish, plastic, painted or treated timber, and never use accelerants.
- Never leave the fire unattended. Make sure it's completely out before you go to bed, go out or check out. Keep children and your dog away from it.
- Total fire ban days: no wood fires (including the indoor fireplace), no charcoal or wood-fired BBQs and no open flames outdoors. Check the Emergency WA app or website each day in the warmer months. A fire lit on a total fire ban day may end your stay without a refund, and fines can apply.
- Bushfire awareness: Preston Beach sits within the bush of Yalgorup National Park and is bushfire-prone, especially in the warmer months. Check Emergency WA for warnings and follow the advice of emergency services. The evacuation plan is under the first aid box in the ensuite toilet.
- Keep the driveway, gates and firebreaks clear so fire trucks can get through.
- Please don't cover, disconnect or remove the smoke alarms.
BBQ & Outdoor Areas
- Step-free access is available from the front of the property, with a lit path to the entrance. Stairs lead up from the garage and to the deck and balcony, so please take care on them, especially when they're wet or at night.
- The gas BBQ is in the covered alfresco area. Never leave cooking unattended, and don't move the BBQ or gas bottles.
- Please scrape and wipe the BBQ after use. BBQ cleaner and utensils are supplied. A BBQ left dirty is charged as extra cleaning.
- Please supervise children on the balcony and decks at all times, and never climb, sit on or lean over the railings.
- Please don't hang towels or wet swimmers on the railings. Use the clothes drying rack.
- Bring the outdoor cushions inside overnight, in bad weather and at check-out.
- Use the outdoor shower to rinse off sand and salt before coming inside, and turn the tap off fully.
- Wildlife: kangaroos, rabbits and birds visit the garden and the bush around the home. Please don't feed them. Snakes are active in the bush in the warmer months, so wear shoes outside and leave any snake alone. Insects can be active near the lakes; insect spray is supplied.
- Kangaroos are often on the roads at dawn and dusk. Please drive carefully.
Play Equipment & Children
- The yard has a play area with swings. Children must be actively supervised by an adult at all times, on the play equipment and near the BBQ, fireplace, balcony, decks and water.
- Check the equipment before use and stop using it if anything is loose or broken, then tell us. Don't use it when wet.
- Please don't move, alter or climb on the frame of the play equipment.
- Please supervise children closely at the beach and near the lakes. There's no lifeguard at the property.
Bins
- Inside bins are under the kitchen island bench. The outside bins are kept in the garage.
- Bin night is Tuesday and collection is Wednesday. General rubbish is collected weekly and recycling fortnightly. If you're staying on a Tuesday night, please wheel both bins to the kerb next to the driveway, and bring them back to the garage after collection. Please also put both bins out on check out.
- At check-out, empty the kitchen and bathroom bins into the general rubbish bin in the garage. If it's full, please take extra rubbish with you.
- Keep bin lids closed so animals can't get in. Excess rubbish or rubbish in the wrong bin is charged as extra cleaning.
Parking & Gates

- The home has an alarm system that is monitored and managed remotely by the owner. Alarm sensors are in the 2 bedrooms, the living room and the under-house store room. They are alarm sensors, not cameras.
- Please don't cover, move, unplug or tamper with any camera, alarm sensor, the alarm or the modem. Tampering is a serious breach and may end your stay without a refund.
- If the alarm sounds, message or call us straight away.
Damage & Cleaning
- No security deposit is taken. You're still responsible for damage, extra cleaning, missing items and odour treatment caused during your stay (rental agreement sections 11 and 14).
- Accidents happen. Tell us straight away, with photos, so we can fix it for the next guests. Early, honest reporting keeps costs down.
