Marvins and Maceys - watch the boats float by

Welcome to Marvin's and Macey's, your cosy lakefront cottage nestled on the tranquil shores of Lake Macquarie.

Named after our two beloved furry friends, Marvin and Macey, this charming retreat is a haven for both humans and their four-legged companions. With their wagging tails and joyful runs towards the lakes edge, Marvin and Macey highly recommend this delightful home away from home.

This home has gorgeous views of Lake Macquarie and the passing boats. The waterfront location is perfect for those wanting to throw in a line and try to catch a fish, or simply walk along the waters edge after a nice day of exploring all that Lake Macquarie has to offer.

The home is recently renovated providing all the necessities for a perfect holiday escape - Wifi, smart TV, airconditioning, dishwasher and a large undercover deck to enjoy a glass or two and just escape the busy-ness of life.

Inside, the cottage comfortably accommodates up to four guests in two inviting bedrooms. The master bedroom boasts a luxurious king-size bed and an ensuite bathroom for your ultimate comfort and privacy. Meanwhile, the second bedroom features two cosy single beds and a conveniently located bathroom just across the way. Plus, for those seeking a bit of solitude, the sliding door in the master bedroom can be closed to create a peaceful retreat.

Prepare to be captivated by the breath taking lake views from the perfectly positioned kitchen and living area. Whether you're sipping a morning cup of coffee or indulging in a delicious home-cooked meal, the panoramic vista will provide a scenic backdrop to your moments of relaxation. And when it's time to soak up the sun or unwind under the stars, step out onto the expansive rear undercover deck—a true oasis of tranquillity.

But that's not all—Marvin's and Macey's warmly welcomes your furry family members too! We understand that pets are an integral part of your life, so our cottage is designed to be dog-friendly, ensuring that everyone feels right at home. Let your canine companions explore the nearby shoreline and frolic in the waters of Lake Macquarie, creating cherished memories together.

So, whether you're seeking a serene escape, a lakeside adventure, or simply a place to curl up with a good book and your furry friends, Marvin's and Macey's invites you to experience the perfect blend of comfort and charm. Discover the joy of lakeside living and embrace the warm embrace of our cottage—an idyllic retreat where both humans and canines find their bliss.
