We had a great time for the second year in a row. There is plenty of room for the kids to run around and parents to relax and cast a line or two. It's quiet location, close to town is perfect
The house offers central air and free wifi. It also has a large screen TV well positioned for viewing with comfort. The backyard is well maintained and spacious and leads to a jetty. Next to the jetty is a fish cleaning table that has a tap, it really helped us in our fishing expeditions. We brought some cooking utensils and woks, only to realise they do not work on the induction stove. It would be nice to specify it on the ad to avoid similar disappointments by others.Overall, we really enjoyed this place and will plan to come back later.

the one bad thing as it has no dryer! every time we go on holidays to Tuncurry, it rains! we just cant get the clothes dry on the airers. Terrific to see air con installed in the last year as well as wifi too.We have stayed at this house many times over the years, love its location as it has its own little jetty and we have a boat. After using the boat ramp near the bridge to put the boat in, we then come and go as we please, with the boat tied up at the jetty, going fishing or just sight seeing round the lake.

Reviewer Comments:
Property is in a quiet location which was ideal for us. A little disappointed with the quality of housecleaning which was reported to agent. Nothing major but chewing gum on bedside table not a good look. Oven very dirty as was the bbq which we had to scrub clean before using. Could do with a good dusting for cobwebs. Bin dirty inside. Beds were beautifully made with lovely clean sheets and the bathtowels were enormous. Great job. Outside area was fantastic. Property would benefit from a larger fridge as the one there not really big enough for 8 people. Also smelt badly of fish in both the fridge and freezer. Would be better as a second fridge in the garage and have it used solely for fish and bait. Hope to be back next year

House was great. Fabulous layout which suited us perfectly. Backyard excellent, very spacious and jetty ideal for fishing. Unfortunately fridge smelled very fishy and not big enough. Would be better in garage for fishy things and a bigger in kitchen for food only. BBQ very dirty

The location was perfect The house was presented clean and fresh The king and queen beds are worn out and have egg shell foam toppers on them which are hot and make for an uncomfortable sleep. The fridge was too small for 7 people and needs an upgrade. Prime location and house is great other than the beds and fridge.
