A stunning spot right on the lake front. Even though it was a bit out of the way to get to, this added to the appeal. The house was set up really well, and the owner was lovely to deal with. We loved the natural hot pools that were a very short kayak/paddleboard away. A restful holiday!

Secluded in a sheltered, calm bay. Almost touching the water the views were stunning, sunset was pure warmth, the bach comfortable and homely. Such a memorable weekend.

Great Bach

After a tricky access road and driveway the Bach was worth the effort. A great location on the Lake we wish we had had a boat. Very relaxing and well appointed. Will book again.

Highly recommended

This was our second stay and we’d come back in a heartbeat. Perfectly appointed - all the little things are thought of to maximise a relaxing stay (electric blankets, beautiful bedding, well decked out kitchen - including dishwasher, plenty of firewood, kayaks and life jackets, separate room for the kids with tv). All of this on the lakes edge, where you can while away the hours simply enjoying the view. We enjoyed the water taxi to the hotpools (it was a real treat being picked up/dropped off from the jetty out front)! Thanks for sharing your little slice of paradise with others.

Lake retreat

Amazing views, fantastic location. We drove to the mountain bike park most days, chilled by the fire in the evening. This property has everything you need. Great running trails and a nice reward of a hot pool in the forest!

Lake front escape

This Review is from my 9 year old daughter. She loved the fact she had her own bunk bed and tv in her room. She had so many wonderfull activities to enjoy from riding her bike to the boat ramp and forest climb, to kayaking to the small hot water beach to left of the Bach. It’s an amazing place to have stayed. Will love to return someday

Lovely secluded spot. Thoroughly enjoyed our holiday

We had our adult children with us so having the boat at the jetty made it easy for boating. The house was well equipped with everything you need for a comfy stay.
