This place was awesome for our group of friends. The house was really clean and spacious. I would highly recommend.

Overall very enjoyable and only hitch no gas for the BBQ, but felt maintenance had been let slip, lights in one bathroom didn't work, clothes dryer door latch broken, main doors to deck unable to be used, outdoor chair broken, coffee milk-frother agitator missing, broken tile in laundry floor, all minor other than the deck doors and could/should have been repaired before our stay.

This home had plenty of beds and bathrooms for our group of 10. It was easily accessed and we were well located for all the activities that we had planned to do in the area. The home was right on the lake and had a beautiful view from the back of the house and patio.

Our accommodation met our every need, plenty of room for 6 adults, 5 children staying there. The kids enjoyed the canoeing, kayaking on the lake and plenty of outside area for an Easter hunt. Would recommend the property for family/friends get-togethers

The accommodation is fantastic! 3 bathrooms, many beds, spacious and the views are beautiful! Beds were most comfortable. A couple of minor things: main living area aircon remote downstairs doesn’t work. Couldn’t use lounge doors to deck, but I imagine that will be repaired soon? We were there for a wedding and hosted 20 on two separate afternoons and everyone commented on how gorgeous the home and location is. We will stay again, for sure 🥂

We had a nice relaxing stay here. Great view of lake and bird life. House is nice and warm with fire going and also had heat pumps. 2nd stay at this property and enjoyed both times. Great not having to take your own linen and bedding! Had everything we needed. Would definitely go back.

Nice location, beautiful outlook, plenty of indoor space and grassed area towards the lake. Good supply of Air Con units around the house and the furniture was all reasonably good. Good storage in the garage and plenty of driveway space for up to three cars. However, the place really needs a deep clean and some general maintenance, seems pretty neglected in a lot of ways. The adjoining rental is a bit weird with a direct access hollow core door opening onto the internal landing of the master bedroom, easy to hear conversations ! We had a rat in the kitchen eating food overnight, even saw it scuttle under the stove. Management company were informed but seemed not too concerned ? – they have traps under some of the furniture apparently ! Forget bringing a boat. The lake access isn’t deep enough for anything heavier than a jet ski, this would be a struggle though, and muddy. If the adjoining accommodation is being occupied there is effectively nowhere to keep the boat, the driveway is too steep and a sharp transition onto the road. Unfortunately, with borders closed for the last 2 years there has been plenty of price gouging for peak holiday periods, owners may need to re-think this if they want good occupancy going forward. So overall, okay place, but overpriced for what is delivered. With over 12 years renting great places in the lakes district, I wasn't too impressed with this one, but it could be improved.

Fantastic arrangement of lake activities, hospitality, kayak and dinghy, and board games for the whole family. Reserve within short walking distance. A spacious place to stay for large family or group.

The property was perfect for our family gathering of 7 adults and 3 children, plenty of space for everyone. Was great being able to moor our boat at the jetty. There were a few small maintenance issues which we communicated to the property manager and the addition of an extra fridge would have been helpful as we struggled with the small fridge and such a large group. Overall we loved the property and would certainly like to rent again.

All good. A couple of suggestions. Pls ensure there is adequate dishwashing liquid and more than 1 rubbish bag available. The water pipe under the laundry tub has been leaking. We tightened the connection but there is historical water damage.

Lake Escape.

Located right next to the wetlands which was beautiful but meant you couldn't swim off the property and had to boat out to the lake. Large, spacious house. BBQ wasn't clean so we didn't use it, lucky we brought our own, we informed the property manager and weren't charged so all good. Would recommend.
