Absolute Lake Front - 5 Mile Bay

EdRating, 5 stars3 months ago

Lovely location on the lake. You do get people walking by, on public path in front of the house, but really was not a bother to us. It was never intrusive in any way, instead relaxing to watch from the deck area or tucked away in lounge room. Plenty of room in the house. Very neat and tidy. Well stocked kitchen for utensils. BYO milk, butter, coffee beans but supermarket a just a 7 min drive, so easy to get these items or anything else you may want. There was tea bags and instant coffee, olive oil. We found it to be a very relaxing place with beautiful views/sunsets.

EdylwiseRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Cozy 2 bedroom house with spa. Spent a night with my visiting in-laws and it fit us (family of 6 and 2 dogs) comfortably. Spa was a nice add after we spent the day out and about. Peaceful community and walking/biking distance to the lake. Stephanie was very communicative throughout the check-in & check-out process.

BarbaraRating, 5 stars3 months ago

We loved this place. Great living area for socialising, well equipped kitchen, showers had awesome water pressure, several lovely areas to sit outdoors. Perfect for our family get together with some of us staying onsite and others in the town centre. And later some items we'd left behind were returned to us which we were grateful for.
