The place is even a lot nicer than the pictures, we loved every moment and we are keen to return. Time on the kayak was so relaxing and joyful and we enjoyed playing table tennis. Tony was very helpful and welcoming.

Last minute get away, property was great, the amount of things in the garage for the kids was fantastic, we had a blast, great location and a bit of fishing just out the backdoor was a bonus.Wish we could have stayed longer.

We loved staying at Lago Mac. Tony was a superb host. The house itself was immaculate & neat as a pin. The lake views were incredible. Including the sunsets over the lake were spectacular. The newly installed Wi-Fi is more than adequate & a hit the teenagers. We're going to be planning another stay@ Lago Mac ASAP.

We had an incredible time at "Lago Mac" over the Oct long weekend. Going in, we knew the house wasn't modern. What we didn't expect was how authentically old school the house was. The house is in pristine condition and it made us feel like we were having an authentic holiday from our childhood. With no wifi, the kids played table tennis, foosball, paddled on the lake and enjoyed fishing at all times of the day.The house is spacious and really comfortable. It's an easy 10-15min drive to stunning beaches. Close to supermarkets. And the lakefront is just stunning.Tony was a wonderful host. We can't recommend this property highly enough.

Thanks Andros, I'm glad you enjoyed the stay and the chance to get away from the "connected world". This end of the lake is exceptionally quiet which helps guests "unwind". You are welcome back anytime . Cheers Tony
