This was our second stay here and we were very happy to return. The new couch just makes this place super comfy and this is our ideal bach. Very close to the part of the lake we like hang, swim, walk and cycle. The bach is dog friendly and not far from the off leash area of the lake (3 Mile Bay). It is spacious with bedrooms upstairs and downstairs too.
