Enjoy this absolute waterfront property with a range of aquatic activities from your very own private fenced backyard, pull the boat up onto the back lawn or take a short walk down to Frothy Coffee Boatshed, and hire one of their boats/kayaks!
'Ripples on Smiths' offers the most spectacular, sweeping long views of the lake from the wide deck upstairs, patio downstairs and all living areas. With its lawns gently sloping down to the water's edge, 'Ripples' provides ideal waterfront access.
From the moment you walk through the front door, you will find yourself in 'holiday mode'. With its open-plan coastal style living area overlooking expansive views, floor to ceiling glass doors leading on to a wide covered deck that spans the length of the house. The outdoor covered deck area has been newly equipped with fans for summer and outdoor heaters for winter. With 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, encompassing a self contained air conditioned studio with separate lounge area, bathroom, kitchenette and covered patio. The property boasts a fully functional brand new kitchen, as well as 2 newly renovated bathrooms.
'Ripples on Smiths' is the perfect place to stay; whether you are looking for a relaxing or romantic weekend away from your usual busy routine or wanting a great place to take the kids, where they will have easy access to the water in their very own backyard.
You will find all that you need at 'Ripples', including the use of 3 kayaks and 3 paddleboards and use of lifejackets. Wearing a PFD (personal flotation device) on the lake is mandatory, whilst kayaking/canoeing/ boating. Please visit the NSW Maritime website for more information. Surfing beaches are only minutes away with a choice of many - Blueys, I Boomerang, Elizabeth, Shelly, together with the beautiful Cellito and Sandbar Beaches with 4WD access. Visit Cellito Beach Littoral Rainforest Boardwalk, which is a short 200 metre walk through a coastal rainforest to the beach at the other end.
At the end of the day sit on your choice of deck and relax with your favourite beverage and watch the lake and its ever changing colours; as the sun sets on the day...a truly breathtaking sight.
So, bring your family and/or friends and enjoy the relaxing, friendly atmosphere of the beautiful waterfront village of Smith's Lake!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Leanne and Philip
We bought our home in Smiths Lake sight unseen - yes, really! As soon as we discovered this peaceful lakeside village, we knew it was something special. The calm pace of life, the stunning natural beauty of the lake and the welcoming community made it an easy decision. Every time we step into our home, we feel it - out shoulders drop, our breath deepens and one of us says "I wish everyone could experience this."
That's exactly why we've opened our doors. We want to share this place with others, so families, couples, and friends can enjoy the sense of calm and joy that fills our days here. Whether you are here for a weekend or a longer stay, we hope this space gives you what it gives us: rest, connection and unforgettable memories.
