- Matthew (7/5): Comfortable waterside retreat ideal for 2-4 people. - Well appointed property with lovely decor. The air conditioner had a bad smell and we realised the filter hadn’t been cleaned in a very long time which was causing a bad smell throughout when on. We cleaned the filter ourselves.
- Puja (10/5): Perfect family stay at the lovely cottage - A lovely unit with all amenities provided located beautifully to enjoy a relaxing and peaceful stay at Lake Entrance. We enjoyed the stunning waterfront view while having our breakfast. You can enjoy boating at the lake with hired boat right opposite the property. The main beach is walking distance from the property as well. There is also a woolies close by. Overall, Grant the host has thought of everything you might need for in a short stay at Lake Entrance - well equiped kitchen, facility for bbq, clean towels and linen. Perfect place to enjoy the lovely Lake Entrance. It’s on a busy road so lot of cars going to and fro but we did not really mind it and at night it gets pretty quiet.
