The house is old but looked after well and very clean. Beds are comfortable. Bathroom clean and shower pressure is great. One thing I would note is that there are internet-enabled security cameras at the back pointing at the whole patio and backyard, which may be a concern if you would prefer to maintain your privacy. Owner is very easy to deal with and very friendly. Will likely book again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 28, 2020 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great views and lovely location, super fast internet included also free use of Kayaks during the stay. Great communication from Paul, happy to be called for any issues at all. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in May 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Apr 29, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Paul was very helpful and accommodating. The property was very well presented with good quality cookware. So often we have rented a holiday house and the frypans are in very poor condition with the non stick surface all weathered. We don't have a boat so we fished from the jetty. Plenty of action with the tiddlers but we did manage to get a legal sized bream, whiting and two flathead. One was a monster of 64cm. So we were happy. Overall we were very happy with the standard of accommodation. Its hard to find somewhere with a jetty that isn't a mansion charging huge prices. The old fashioned holiday cottages are so cute and take me back to when I was a kid. Make no mistake although the cottage is of a bygone era outside it is totally modernised inside and was found to be as advertised. We would recommend a stay at lake escape for anyone who wants a well fitted out holiday home with tasteful décor but doesn't require a mansion. Well done Paul you are a great host and provide a lot of little things like shampoo and kitchen pantry basics that others do not. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 5, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property was just beautiful. Usually my only option when working in the area has been motor inns. The owner was super helpful, the property immaculate and the view is spectacular! I am just sorry I didn’t get a chance to spend any time off to go fishing! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 3, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent location, property more than catered for our needs. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen Sep 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### Karen Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 5, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2020 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Sir Stamford at Circular Quay](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Sir-Stamford-At-Circular-Quay.h26464.Hotel-Information) > > [Shearwater Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Shearwater-Hotels-Shearwater-Resort.h11114220.Hotel-Information) > > [Sydney Harbour Marriott Hotel at Circular Quay](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Sydney-Harbour-Marriott-Hotel-At-Circular-Quay.h18811.Hotel-Information) > > [Meriton Suites Sussex Street](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Meriton-Suites-Sussex-Street.h25019183.Hotel-Information) > > [Sydney Harbour Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Rydges-Sydney-Harbour.h16764.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Sydney.h15886.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Shangri-La-Sydney.h11974.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d178314-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Grace Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-The-Grace-Hotel.h460380.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.ca/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sebel Whitsundays Airlie Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-At-Blue-Horizon-Resort-Apartments.h2650727.Hotel-Information) > > [Meriton Suites Kent Street, Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Meriton-Suites-Kent-Street.h19290784.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Hilton-Sydney.h16892.Hotel-Information) > > [Bonnie Doon Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Bonnie-Doon-Hotels-Bonnie-Doon-Hotel.h20516057.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Sydney Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Sydney-Airport.h38420088.Hotel-Information) > > [Rydges Australia Square](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-The-Tank-Stream.h11718621.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points By Sheraton Sydney, Central Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Sydney.h24101534.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Sydney Coogee Beach by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-InterContinental-Sydney-Coogee-Beach-By-IHG.h1747.Hotel-Information) > > [PARKROYAL Darling Harbour, Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-PARKROYAL-Darling-Harbour.h22576.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel Sydney Wentworth](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Sofitel-Sydney-Wentworth.h426577.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Fairmont-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h522363.Hotel-Information) > > [Amora Hotel Jamison Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Amora-Hotel-Jamison-Sydney.h454969.Hotel-Information) > > [SKYE Suites Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-SKYE-Suites-Sydney.h24507540.Hotel-Information) > > [Little National Hotel Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Little-National-Hotel-Sydney.h54032015.Hotel-Information) > > [Barceló Bávaro Palace - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Barcelo-Bavaro-Palace-All-Inclusive.h2438582.Hotel-Information) > > [YEHS Hotel Sydney Harbour Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-YEHS-Hotel-Sydney-Harbour-Suites.h426104.Hotel-Information) > > [Rydges Sydney Airport Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Rydges-Sydney-Airport-Hotel.h5932305.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Sydney-Hyde-Park.h4807.Hotel-Information) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Vancouver.d178315.Car-Rental-Guide)
