The closest beach, Cellito, can be accessed via a short board walk through coastal rain forest or via Jemma's tinnie, kayaks or canoe.

Location

The immediate area provides local clubs for great meals at affordable prices. Smiths Lake Bowling Club on Macwood Road and Pacific Palms Rec Club on Wallace Lake, well worthy of a visit!

The Charlotte Bay fish shop on the Lakes Way is a must with fresh catches daily. A well known Seafood supplier to upmarket restaurants through out NSW.

The local village shops can cater for most of your needs with a butcher, baker, liquor store and general store. The Lakes cafe (TLC) has the best coffee and is a great spot for lunch and or dinner.

FROTHY COFFEE is on the lake front at Amaroo boasting fantastic views of the Lake and Sandbar. A very popular spot, alongside the boat ramp and BBQ grounds, where a variety of boat hire options are available. Fishing is also abundant at Smiths Lake.

Great place to stay with family and little kids. Great spot on the lake and lots for the family to do. It was a little dusty downstairs but once the windows and doors were all open it was okay. The bedroom doors upstairs were a little hard to open and close but not too much of an issue. Easy communication with owner during stay. Would come back again!

House could use a freshen up. Older bathrooms and toilets. It’s a shame you have to supply your own linen and towels. No spare blankets so if you’re a cold frog I would recommend to take a blanket and maybe your own pill as the ones supplied are very thin. And I must have missed it in the fine print but you have to supply your own toilet paper as well. But host dropped some off to us after contacting them as we only had two half rolls.Overall had a pretty good stay host was prompt to answer text messages. But sorry to say we wouldn’t book again. As we had one of the neighbors peering through his blinds at us all the time we were there.

A lovely position perfect for all the family to enjoy. Great access to the lake and surrounding beaches. Good secure area for our four legged friend as well. The house has plenty of space for all - the pool table and ping pong table were a hit with the kids. Great summer holiday destination.

Jemmas on the lake is a wonderful location for friends and family, especially those with young children. The house is comfortable and within walking distance to the lake. We had a wonderful time using the tinny and kayaks. This is definitely a property we would like to return to.

We were blessed by perfect winter weather, which allowed us to take full advantage of the various aquatic vehicles that this house offers, including canoeing into the middle of the lake for some magnificent sunsets. The table-tennis table was also well used, and for those who were less inclined to be active the sunbed was a great spot to enjoy the view. The few minor issues we had were dealt with impressively-quickly by Kate. All in all, a lovely relaxing week in a recommended property!
