Lovely home, beautiful surrounds, kids loved kayaking and playing in the lake. Hosts were very welcoming would highly recommend for families with older kids. Our youngest was 8, he loved it.
We had a fantastic stay. Plenty of room for 8 adults. The host thought of everything to make sure our stay was perfect. Would love to stay there again.
Perfect holiday location was so peaceful at all times of the day and night . House was exactly how describe, was great having the pool table for a fun family night. The host Lucio and Julie were amazing. We will definitely be booking again.
Beautiful property with amazing views and wonderful interior. Instructions for keeping the house tidy were very clear and reasonable would definitely recommend.

Thank you so much for your review. But more importantly thank you for being an ongoing returning guest to our property. Looking forward to having you back again soon.
Took our speedboat - much fun by all, both in and towing behind in various devices. Kids enjoyed the canoes, bikes, scooters, fishing & the ducks. The property was extremely well equipped.
My family and I loved this place
It had everything we needed included comfy beds
I loved going for a paddle on the lake in the Kayaks that are provided
We all had a blast playing kelly pool on the pool table
Thanks Lucio and Julie for sharing your amazing place with us
Fabulous location and set up for both families and groups of friends gathering for a long time catchup. Inside the house was spotlessly clean. Front door and entrance way need some attention re built up dirt around door frame.EVERYTHING you could think of supplied for a relaxing fun time. Beautiful outlook across lake...so peaceful . Quiet neighbourhood. Beds comfortable. Easy acess. Neighbourhood shops 1 km away.Fantastic time had by all. Highly recommend.
This house is even better than it looks on the photos, it is an ideal place to go if you want to relax with a book or board game by the lake, go for walks around the suburb, fish, kayak or visit the beach. I went with a group of friends and all 8 of us absolutely loved it. It is the perfect place for anyone looking for a peaceful get-away.
The family stayed to celebrateh a birthday. The house has everything you could possibly need and is perfectly located, backing onto the lake. It surpassed our expectations
We had an amazing stay! The location was perfect—close to everything we needed, yet peaceful and quiet for a restful getaway. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, and every detail made us feel comfortable and relaxed. Lucio and Julie were such great hosts, making sure everything was perfect for our stay. We all had a great time and can’t wait to book again for our next trip. Highly recommend!"
