The official 2021 locality evidence counted 30 residents and recorded 210 private dwellings, with 197 unoccupied on Census night. The numbers are contextual only: an unoccupied dwelling is not automatically visitor accommodation and should never be presented that way. Census evidence does not measure visitor or booking demand.

The nearest larger market is Margaret River, about 128 kilometres away to the south-east. Only a checked address-to-destination route can support practical travel wording for a real property. The nearby guides for Manjimup and Walpole give guests two useful comparison points without turning the page into an indiscriminate link list.

Every figure above describes the resident population of Windy Harbour at the 2021 Census. None of it describes visitors, nightly rates, occupancy or short-stay supply, and it must not be presented as if it did. Its use is to set expectations a host can then confirm from the property itself: the real bedroom count and bed layout, how many vehicles the space genuinely takes and whether that space is on-title or on-street, the actual route to the door, and the house rules a street of this kind will expect around noise and turnover.

The draft guest-purpose brief identifies weekend and seasonal stays, couples or family breaks and multi-night self-contained trips. Treat those journeys as a starting point, then refine them with property-level evidence.
