About this property
Jamieson Lake Retreat - Waterfront
A natural light filled home that can comfortably accommodate 2 families. 3 bedrooms are perfect for couples containing built in robes, heating and ceiling fans. The kids will love their own area in the lower-level bunk room which has space for them to sleep, rest and play. Equipped with their own living area, TV*, books and split system plus bathroom.
Less than 30mins from Mansfield and within an hour to the Mt Buller Entry Gates, Jamieson Lakeside Retreat is a great base to set off from to explore what the High Country has to offer.
In the warmer months, head out on the water for some boating, fishing, swimming, or water-skiing fun with the added bonus of launching and mooring in eyesight from the house. (*Conditions Apply) Explore some local waterways or just sit back on the verandah with a nice cold drink, listening to the BBQ sizzle away whilst the kids splash and play in the pool. Enjoy a hit of tennis or kick of the footy without having to leave the property.
In winter take a drive to Mt Buller, go for a bush walk or simply keep cosy indoors by relaxing on the couch by the crackling of the wood fire reading a book or watching a movie.... For that real country feel, take the kids and toast some marshmallows by the designated fire pit *conditions apply
Apart from being one of the best locations for water activities and snow sports, there are many other nearby attractions. The local Jamieson Brewery and Courthouse Hotel are only minutes away and offer hearty meals in family friendly settings.
Take a leisurely drive to the old mining town of Woods Point or head back into Mansfield which itself is becoming renowned for its great cafes, boutique and arty shopping, golf course, and galleries, markets and festivals. There is usually something interesting happening on most weekends.
Alternatively, simply stay at home, relax and enjoy this fantastic accommodation where you can get lost in the sunsets and stargaze into the clearest of night skies. Don’t Delay, Book today!

The 3 days we spent were awesome. Lovely perfect and peaceful atmosphere. Perfect for all ages. Lovely kids friendly space/room so parents can relax. Magnificent water views. Must try.
Fantastic property in the heart of the high country
Excellent property, great spot for kids and family. Lots of fun on the tennis court, fishing and eating great food. Quite a dangerous entry into the property on a bend. Please take care.
