Hi geocachingmaty,
The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention. I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 28 days) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.
If you require more time please be sure to **post a note** (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 28 days to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Found it quickly. Container looked chewed and paper was wet so couldn’t record date on it.
Found it easily, but it needs maintenance. Couldn’t record date on paper as soggy and container looks chewed.
With all the rain we have had recently I will go and check up on all of my caches to see if they need fixing or replacing. In the meantime, feel free to keep searching, but unfortunately, I cannot guarantee the caches will be there or in good condition.

Needed a pic from a prev log to identify the container. Log soaked but I was able to sign. TFTC!
Went back again for another search. Obviously been muggled by the kids whilst collecting for their cubby built round the tree. I am dropping a photo here of the location.TFTC
Kids have built cubby house around the tree so can’t get in to retrieve if it’s still there. Swinger 44 took a photo. TFTC
At least we found the site but no log book - some children have made a great little cubby around the base of the tree - see attached photos. Wondered if the pink ring was the one which had been placed in the cache.
a cool little cache when we found there wasn't any treasures but we put a cool ring init
My son and me looked for half an hour in the base of every tree in the park and couldn’t find it. In one of the trees, the closest to the GPS coordinates, we found plenty of bark around, a kind-of hole where the jar seen in other photos could have been located, and a broken toy car (see photo attached, spoiler in case this was the right place). Considering the latest two logs were also no findings, we’re suspecting this was found by muggles, perhaps? Thanks!
Searched and searched, looked through the past comments, photos and hints, still could not find it.
Put out a replacement container. Same location, just more camo. It's not in the trees, but at the base of one.
As per my enabled log, the cache can now be found.
It has natural camo over it, so please, when you replace the cache, put sufficient camo over it so it isn't found by muggles

Unfortunately this one is missing, so I'm in the process of preparing a new container
Went with kids hoping for an easy find but nothing! Just started geocaching and 2 out of 2 fails! Is this cache still here??
geocachingmaty I found your cache Beacon Hill #1 - Princess Mary Street Reserve on 14/8/20, 1:45 pm. This is my find 2603 and find # 11 today. A quick and easy find. Thanks for the cache, mate! TNSLLN
Didn’t find and felt sus looking around as there’s a lot of people about. Will try again later! 
Walked back and forth from tree to tree, finding myself almost looking into someone's kitchen. I knew it couldn't be close to there, so I widened the search and made the find. TFTC
Just took it home for a quick layer of spray paint and out it back. Please cover it with camo and close the lid properly. Thanks.
Happy caching!
Happy caching!
Searched for a while but my dog managed yo sniff it out. There are no tradeables or pencils.
The cache was exposed so I’ve covered it up well but that’s a great container keeping the contents bone dry with all the rain we’ve had. TFTC!
I took myself to an interesting group of caches around Beacon Hill today. Mostly successful too.

Heute Nachmittag wurde der "Beacon Hill" genauer unter die Lupe genommen. Die Caches waren gut versteckt, leider waren sie zum Teil "zu gut" versteckt.
Die Gegend hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Erstaunlich ist, wo man überall Häuser hinbauen kann - Grandios!
Recht schnell habe ich das Döschen aus seinem Versteck herausgeholt [^]

Finally fixed this cache. It is now not a birdhouse but rather a screw on lid container. Please replace the camo so the kids don't take the cache again. It is a bit more difficult but shouldn't be too hard. Enjoy the cache!
Found the home made spot but nothing there sorry I think the log and pen etc been taken
A quick find, but unfortunately the container is damaged, and the log missing.
Needs maintenance.

Found without container. Also I thought you weren’t meant to bolt things to trees
