About this property
Fishtales On the Lake - Exclusive “Couples Only” Private Waterfront Retreat.
"Fishtales On the Lake” is an absolute waterfront, 5 star, Couples Only, private retreat and is located right on the lake in Smiths Lake NSW.
It really doesn't get any better than this---- private, with a beautiful sandy beach straight out the front. (Fishtales has complimentary kayaks for you to use and explore the lake and beach.)
It is arguably, THE best spot on the Lake.
Located just south of Forster on the mid north coast of NSW, it’s an easy 3 hour drive north from Sydney .
It's perfect for honeymooners, second honeymooners, or just that romantic or fun weekend or week away for one or two couples.
* 3 night minimum for Public holiday weekends and School Holidays.
Fishtales owners and managers, Steve and Kaz, are onsite if you need any assistance or advice during your stay.
Your holiday here can be as private as you would like while still offering all the luxuries and lakeside activities for you to enjoy.
For the water enthusiasts, Smiths Lake is a salt water environment that is very popular for swimming, skiing and fishing and all outdoor water sports. It also supports all the fish species normally found along the east coast, bream, flathead, whiting, flounder, blackfish, blue swimmer crabs etc.
You can put your boat in when you arrive and leave it on the buoy out front or parked on the beach, right in front of your apartment for the duration of your stay.
The apartment has digital Smart TV and Wi-Fi
Bedroom one has a King size bed and bedroom two is Queen size.
Both bedrooms have air conditioning with ensuite bathrooms.
Further information can be obtained by contacting Steve or Kaz by sending a booking enquiry.
Avoid disappointment and book early for your next romantic / fun holiday.
Come for a weekend, week or a long weekend, we know you will love it .
Please note that Fishtales is an "allergy free" venue and as such, for our future guests protection, we do not allow any animals whatsoever on the property. This includes "companion animals".
We thank you for your understanding.
