Nice home with great views

Really great location just out of town and really nice views. House could have been a little cleaner and we were disappointed in a few blown light bulbs, a few blowflies, the BBQ not working, the fireplace not being allowed to be used and the wifi dropping out. Otherwise, a lovely place for a large family get together.

A well equipped house in a lovely location close to the lake.

A great getaway with our young adult children - plenty of privacy because of number of bedrooms, and great communal space. Very well equipped kitchen. Nice views of lake and easy walk down to nice little beach.
