Beach Acres is rich in history; its inception was in 1986. However, the area dates back further with the guest cottages that were used when tourists travelled to the area. Now each cottage is owned individually and has a home away from home feel.

A walk through Beach Acres and it is clear that the resort is very accommodating to families. You don’t have to look far to see children building sandcastles, while the slightly older crowd are playing volleyball, basketball, tennis, horseshoes, or shuffleboard. The indoor pool appeals to all ages, and there is also a hot tub and sauna nearby. Moving on into the evening, sun-drenched and exhausted families may opt to play board games and solve puzzles or share a beach fire while marshmallows toast and everyone gathers to watch the sunset.

If guests choose to eat out rather than prepare meals in the well-equipped cottages, the Black Goose Pub is mere steps away and welcomes all ages. The pub was once known as The McClure House, named after Samuel McClure who was a well-known architect from Victoria who originally built it in 1921. McClure built the home in the style of a Scottish hunting lodge for Evelyn and Matthew Beatty.

Now The Black Goose is British-owned with a touch of Scotch thrown in. The food is delicious and abundant with fish and chips being an award-winning specialty. The menu is extensive with nightly choices. One of these is the hunter pie, which is amazing.

There is a special room at Beach Acres where guests can gather in larger groups. It comes complete with a kitchen. Or there is a conference room equipped for groups of up to 100. This is an idyllic location and some groups having been known to arrive on the same week, year after year, such as large and small family reunions, office parties, couples’ getaways, and weddings. Beach Acres has it all and welcomes everyone.

Beach Acres Resort and The Black Goose Pub are happy to welcome all of their guests and will do everything possible to ensure a delightful and memorable stay.
