About this property

The Lake Escape Cottage

The lake is at your door step with a short stroll to the Entrance for brunch or dinner. Or for the more energetic there are 12 kms of waterfront bicycle paths to explore.

This renovated sixties 4 bedroom house is 2 minutes walk to the lake. It has a sunny open plan living space opening out onto a deck and sunny private fully fenced garden. It is perfect for families or weekenders to come and chill out.

Accommodation

The house has 4 bedrooms. The first has a very comfortable queen sized bed. The second bedroom has a double bed. The third bedroom has two sets of bunks. At the end of this room there is another bedroom with a double bed. All mattresses are clean and of excellent quality. The house sleeps 4-5 adults and up to 5 children. Suitable for two families or two couples or a holiday with the grandparents! The dining and outdoor settings seat 8, with extra chairs available.

There is a fully equipped modern kitchen with a dishwasher, cooktop and Elextrolux oven and a good supply of cookware, glassware, plates and servery.

The house is provided with doonas and pillows and their covers, as well as tea towels. All of the linen is good quality and most of it is 100% cotton.

There is a selection of children's toys and books and a level grassed area and covered patio area with a large outdoor dining table. There is a gas BBQ next to the back patio.


Pet Friendly

Pets are welcome at the Lake Escape Cottage, so long as they don't go on the beds & furniture.

The back yard is fully fenced, with full height fences on all sides and a high side gate with spring closer. The front fly screen also has a door closer to block any surprise exits.

The side deck has also had wire mesh installed underneath to keep the area enclosed, if your pet hops down in the garden to explore.

The back yard is big enough for a small to medium sized dog to explore. The yard can also cater for a larger dog, but you will probably need to use the lake side walking tracks to keep them well exercised.

Please bring your own dog bedding. There is also a dog kennel, food & water bowls.
