Kitchen not cluttered well equipped for cooking a meal.Good shower.Maybe to have an extra pillow per person.We have a comfortable stay at Allen’s and therefore have enhanced our little break at Lakes Entrance.

Weekend away with dogs

Perfect for what we wanted travelling with 3 dogs. Huge secure grassy backyard that our 2 labs and jack Russell could run around. We enjoyed the bbq sitting out on the back deck. Great communication and easy check in. We would definitely stay here again.

The property was excellent for pets 10 / 10 , huge secure yard . The property was advertised as having dvd player so took lots of dvds however there was not a player .The cooking was as described ( no oven ) bbq with side burner , needed small saucepan and frypan to cook on side burner , there was a microwave with not really suitable containers with lids .For 1 or 2 day stay ok , but weekly stays where you are eating in due to dog , a few more cooking things would be appreciated , also an iron for long stays .The house had a good heater , and was in an excellent location .

Loved our time in Lakes Entrance and this property is perfectly located. Once we parked our car from the trip, we didn't drive again until heading home. Property was exactly as advertised and Liz was very helpful.

Excellent, private location

Large secure yard which our dogs loved. Accomodation had all the basics we needed minus a cooktop, however given the weather, the bbq was more than sufficient for our needs.
