About this property

The Place - Perfect Summer House!

Nestled amongst the palms trees and tropical garden on the shores of beautiful Lake Macquarie this is the perfect location to spend a few days or weeks sailing, skiing, swimming, paddling, boating and fishing.

The Place is not just an ideal summer house, it's a fantastic base with plenty to do around the area from a private Hunter Valley mini bus trip from your door to exploring the areas of Newcastle, stroll along Darby Street for a spot of lunch or explore nearby Caves Beach & Catherine Hill Bay. The Olive Tree Brasserie restaurant offers Modern Mediterranean style cuisine in a casual dining setting in neighbouring Summerland Point or simply unwind and enjoy an unplugged evening in with your family.

When you want a rest from playing in and on the biggest salt water lake in the Southern Hemisphere, you could play a game of cricket or footy on the waterfront reserve, enjoy the gardens and pool in this fully fenced property, relax with the kids at Lioness Park which is a short walk across the bridge, or hang out at the house and enjoy many of the extensive features included as outlined below.

THE PLACE is well equipped for a great family holiday and is big enough to accommodate two families or the extended family. It has two living areas, ensuring there is enough space for everyone to relax and chill out. The downstairs living area has been set up for children with a cupboard full of games and toys, and Arcade Machine. whilst the upstairs living area is more for the big kids, with a bar area and a large tv for the armchair sports lovers.

There is also 2 Kayak's at the property with life jackets provided for that little bit of extra fun! Used at your own risk.

All bathrooms have a limited supply of soap, hand soap and toilet paper. The downstairs bathroom also has a separate bath as well as a shower. Bed linen and bath towels are provided for your convenience.

It is very important to select the correct number of guests as this will determine how many beds to have made up.

Important message for guests organising events.
We have a strict no party or events policy. It is in a quiet neighbourhood, so any type of events such as hens/bucks/schoolies/end of season sporting groups/birthday parties celebration are not allowed. If you are unsure if your group falls into any of these categories please enquire before booking. We can easily determine if the house rule of “No parties or events” is disrespected, and this means additional charges, bond forfeited and/or eviction will apply.

Fantastic Summer break!
We had such a great 5 nights. The kids barely left the pool but did go out kayaking once and enjoyed that too. The house is large enough that you can get away from each other as there are two living rooms. We ate upstairs on the deck using the bbq and looking out at all the lovely greenery. We did visit two beaches but could easily have stayed at the house with the pool! The house is not so done up that you feel nervous having your kids there but it is just the right amount of space and plenty of facilities to keep all ages busy or relaxed, depending on what you want. We did a big shop before leaving Sydney so the local shops were fine for any last minute top ups. I'm still thinking about floating in the pool - it was a really easy, fun family holiday.

Weekend Away
Overall we had an enjoyable weekend, the place was clean , and the space is large enough for the family. The children enjoyed the pool and the adults took time to unwind and relaxed in a quiet environment. We look forward for another visit. Kind regards from a very happy family.
