Guest Reviews
- Noel (9/5): - The studio unit was very nicely presented.
I was very comfortable whilst staying at this Bungalow. I thought the Bungalow may have had views to Lake Macquarie. You had to walk past a another residence to be on and see the lake.
- Cathe (10/5): A great spot to wind down and relax. - Very generous breakfast supplies and well equipped kitchen. Comfortable king size bed. Quiet location with private courtyard area leading to the lake. We would definitely recommend the Lakeside Bungalow for couples. Unfortunately the weather was a little rainy and very cloudy so we didn’t get to watch the sunset on the lake.
- Kaylene (9/5): Hidden gem on the lake - Perfect location. Beautiful studio
- Roopa (9/5): -
- Carl (10/5): Exceptional accommodation. - Had a fantastic stay at Lakeside Bungalow. Was so much nicer than staying in hotel rooms with plenty of room it felt like your own unit. Great location, easy to drive to all the beautiful places that Lake Macquarie has to offer. Hosts were really friendly. Would highly recommend.
- Mirianthe (10/5): Sweet little place nice atmosphere and beautiful outdoor gardens - Cute romantic getaway Nothing
- Gerard (9/5): Our stay was perfect - Quite Clean Comfortable bedding Internet service is not great
- Gary (10/5): - It was a lovely quiet location and the hosts were very helpful and friendly.
- Cheryl (8/5): -
- alison (10/5): Tropical paradise - Very private, comfortable and great breakfast Nothing
- noah (10/5): Would highly recommend, lovely hospitality and scenery - Quiet, nice spot, easy to find and good privacy Nothing
- Gerard (8/5): -
- Lee (8/5): -
- Robert (9/5): - Lovely courtyard. Good viila layout. Host provided wide choice of breakfast food. Having to go past a joining dwelling to get to the lake
- Robert (10/5): All Good - Very comfortable stay at Lakeside Bungalow. Welcoming hosts, a good range in the breakfast basket and a really good shower. Everything worked as expected.
- mrcris99 (10/5): A peaceful and well-kept lakeside escape with a comfy bed, generous food basket, and a beautiful sunrise just steps away - My girlfriend and I had such a wonderful stay at this lakeside bungalow. The bed was incredibly comfy, making for a restful night’s sleep after our days of exploring. We were welcomed with a generous and inviting food basket that made us feel right at home.
The entire place was spotless, very clean and organised, which gave the stay an extra level of comfort. The outdoor setting was absolutely lovely – the perfect spot to relax and unwind. And just a short walk away, we enjoyed catching the morning sunrise by the lake, which was truly beautiful.
Overall, this was the perfect little getaway – peaceful, cosy, and well thought out. Highly recommend! No complaints at all, our stay was wonderful from start to finish.
- Thomas (10/5): -
- Jayne (7/5): - Lakeside Bungalow was well equipped.
The breakfast was generous. We did not have a view of the Lake. Should be called "almost lakeside"
- Mark (10/5): A truly great BnB. - We had a really lovely stay here. The breakfast items were sensational and the bottle of wine on arrival a real treat. Very very well presented property. Hosted beautifully by Suzie and Garry. We would definitely stay again. Not much to say really but a nice bench down by the lake would have been wonderful but I'm guessing the shoreline is public property.
- Vanessa (10/5): Great weekend getaway. - The Bunglow was perfect for a weekend getaway. We had a lovely walk along the lake front in the morning and great coffee in a near by cafe. Beds were comfortable, complimentary brekfast was great.
- Leckey (10/5): Great stay - great area all of the above answers
- Vicki (9/5): Superb -
- Esther (7/5): Good - Quiet, comfortable, clean. .
- Debra (9/5): Superb - Very pleasant
- Kellie (10/5): A lovely welcoming comfortable stay amongst beautiful surrounds - It was such a beautiful inviting bungalow and the hosts Garry and Susie were incredibly welcoming and offered for us to share their deck which sits on the lake with a beautiful view. The actual bungalow is modern and very clean and comfortable-our biggest disappointment was we were only there for two days and nights - we will definitely be back. Nothing we loved it all.
- Sue (6/5): Clean, tidy & comfortable - Clean & tidy bungalow with modern fit out; large, comfortable bed; choice of aircon or ceiling fans for cooling; efficient shower with good hot water supply; full sized fridge & kitchenette available; bungalow felt quite private; veranda overlooks a pleasant courtyard & garden; off street parking provided; breakfast provisions available; location close to the venues and places I wanted to visit. Though well fitted out, the bathroom is very small & has no bath; the hosts did not ask me about my dietary needs prior to my visit (as other B&B hosts have done), so most of the breakfast supplies were not suitable; information folder is in tatters, needs an update; instructions for hob would benefit from some photos to assist those who haven't used this type of cooktop before; no oven (perhaps provide an airfryer); whilst the bungalow is near the lake, it has no view of the water (unless you join the hosts on their balcony); you can walk to the end of the cul-de-sac and see the lake, but the street was full of kids riding bikes each time I went, so not a peaceful interlude; the bungalow is in a suburban street, so there is the usual noise & activity of families, pets, cars, construction etc.
- Anthea (9/5): Superb - Lakeside location and access to lake were special.
Good range in breakfast and tea and coffee supplies.
Comfortable and airy cottage.
Hosts were welcoming and easy to talk to. N/A

Best shower ever, really comfy bed. Wonderful hosts, really kind and welcoming. We were offered a late check out in case we had been disturbed by family visiting, which we weren't at all! A lovely gesture, and we were very happy to have been able to enjoy a leisurely departure - thank you Susie and Garry :-) Nothing - everything was perfect!
- Kay (9/5): Superb - Great location, well appointed and very comfortable. Didn't meet the hosts but they were very helpful and available. Would definitely recommend. There was nothing to not like. Maybe put some Vegemite there? I'm a Vegemite tragic.
- Olivia (7/5): Lakeside was very convenient for our purposes. Hosts very prompt to respond to our questions - Well furnished.
Great presentation. Warm and comfortable No Vegemite!
Breakfast a bit unimaginative

Very close to restaurants and shops and a short drive to Emilio’s restaurant for some great Italian food.
Our stay was perfect, wish it was a little longer! Wouldn’t change a thing!
- Nanette (9/5): Superb - The place was impeccably clean. Everything was provided for your convenience and comfort. The ingredients for a full cooked or continental breakfast was very generous. Great pod coffee machine and the big bowl of fresh fruit was an extra bonus. The only thing I would have liked would be a table and lamp on both sides of the bed.

The bungalow has everything you could possibly need, as well as lots of extra comforts that had been thoughtfully provided. Lovely complimentary breakfast, as well as everyday items and treats were generously available on our arrival. Situated in a gorgeous garden courtyard, we felt we had lots of privacy with the added bonus of being able to enjoy all the surroundings freely, especially being able to sit out on the deck overlooking the water. The view is spectacular and was the highlight of our stay. Susie was a great host, quick at communicating, giving us tips on places to visit, as well as being very welcoming to us. We will definitely be contacting Susie again to stay if ever we are in the area and highly recommend this to couples or single travelers looking for a relaxing and memorable place to stay
- Graincourt (8/5): WONDERFUL PLACE TO BE FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS - We specifically liked the way we were welcomed at this place and the friendliness of the owners who invited us on their home porch to view te sundown over Lake Macquarie WiFi was rather poor and the name "Lakeside Bungalow" suggests more than the reality. Furthermote the possibilities for having a decent dinner approx are none. One has to go to Belmont.
- Racquel (8/5): Very good -
- Kat (10/5): Beautiful relaxing holiday! - Perfect location near the lake, beautiful and relaxing surroundings. The bungalow has all you need, including comfortable bed and stunning garden. Kayaks included to explore the lake. Susie and Garry are one of the best hosts we met, they really care about your comfort and experience.
