Hi Jessica,
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We are glad to hear you loved overlooking the view and we look forward to hosting you again soon!
A nice bright house that is great for a family getaway. We had a great time and used it as a base to explore the surrounding areas. Only minor issue was no nbn / wifi, which was not really an issue for us as we were mostly out and about.

Peaceful neighbourhood with all you need just a short drive away
So happy we discovered Newlands Arm. Half way between Bairnsdale and Paynesville, and a nice day trip to Buchan Caves, Lakes Entrance and Metung. The property was perfect for two families, and we loved the deck and fire pit. The local beach at first looked underwhelming but we had a pleasant afternoon down there and can appreciate the peacefulness of the area. It was a beautiful, relaxing 8 nights. Thank you!

Never been here before. Perfectly situated near a boat ramp, the inlet in MASSIVE to not be near other boats/people if u want seclusion.
Loved tge balcony, 2 living rooms and there is a massive area for pet dogs underneath with kennel, couches.
A good idea is to take citronella candles, we were getting bitten on the balcony.
Thank for having us! Will be coming up again... so much fun

Property was clean and a great location
This house was perfect for our group consisting of two families with small children. It’s almost like two houses in one where each family had their own bedrooms and lounge and we would all meet in the middle (the central kitchen). Plenty of space, extremely well appointed kitchen, a great deck with beautiful fairy lights for the nights, and loads of outdoor space too. We all really enjoyed our stay here.

Reviewer Comments:
What a beautiful home with amazing views. Very clean and a huge size for a large family. The owners are very generous with all the facilities including lots of firewood, board games, an Xbox and hundreds of DVD's to watch. The kitchen was filled with everything needed to prepare a home cooked meal. The doble beds are great, probably recommend the bunk beds for kids only as the bunk bed mattresses aren't as comfortable or designed for full size adults. There is no general store in town so plan to travel into Paynesville to buy any essentials or bring them with you. I can highly recommend this property and hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

A fantastic place to catch up and spend quality time with an extended group. We were a group of 11 (6 adults, 5 kids). Plenty of room for everyone, well-provisioned kitchen, comfy beds. Great to have the fire pit, and the views from the balcony were perfect for wine-and-cheese o'clock.
