Carrick Cottage was a very comfortable and well equipped place to base ourselves while discovering Lakes Entrance and surrounds. The cottage had all the amenities we needed and the gardens provided a lovely environment to be during times we spent at the cottage. The raised decking area provided a lovely space to enjoy lunch. Carlene is a very welcoming host and was always happy to answer queries about the cottage. Would recommend Carrick Cottage to anyone wanting a clean, quiet and comfortable place to stay in Lakes Entrance
