"Absolutly amazing at the best location right on the lake"

10.0

The location was stunning and totally unbeatable. Also close to the river for fishing. We had a jet ski so that was also perfect. Beds comfy as - house was original but all part of the charm and suited our family of 5 perfectly. Lovely deck with an unbeatable view ! Sunsets for days. Swimming at ur door step !

"A magic outlook and family friendly stay."

10.0

With the property being fully fenced it was perfect for our 2yo. And the location was great with our family Christmas just across the road.

We liked that the house was a little older, with having kids in tow. The only critique would be that it could do with an oven upgrade or maintenance.

"Overall, it was pleasant because of the gorgeous view, and we had everything we needed."

6.0

Location is great, stunning view, incredible to wake up to. Heater worked very well. Double glazed windows.

Beds are comparable to half deflated air mattress. Separate taps for hot and cold water that are too short for the sink, so your hands always touch the sink. Weird brownish red stains on the walls in the toilet?

"Beautiful location"

9.0

Fantastic location for Lake access and enjoying the view. The most beautiful sunrise and sunset over the water. Quiet, peaceful neighbourhood. 15 minute drive to town centre for supplies. Heater was excellent, beds were comfy. Plenty of blankets and towels provided. Loved the board games and books to keep us busy on rainy days

The property is quite old, and some things don’t work well. But that was part of the charm. It’s like going back in time to a 1970s beach shack.
