4.82 out of 5 average rating, 17 reviews1 month ago

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful home overlooking Lake Macquarie. The location was perfect—just a short drive to shops, cafes, and restaurants—while still offering a peaceful and scenic retreat. The house was spacious, impeccably clean, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed to prepare our meals. One of the highlights was the firepit by the lake, where we enjoyed stunning sunsets in the most relaxing setting. We couldn’t have asked for a better getaway! Ala was a fantastic host—warm, responsive, and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend this place to friends and family.

Our holiday at Helen's lakeside property was absolutely fantastic! The location could not have been more perfect, right in front of a serene lake with picture-perfect scenery. The view from the property was breathtaking, providing the perfect backdrop for a relaxing and memorable stay. The spacious outdoor deck allowed us to fully enjoy the natural beauty around us, whether we were having meals, playing games, or simply soaking in the view. Inside, the house was just as impressive—spacious, immaculate, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It was clear that Helen has taken great care in maintaining the property, and it made our family feel right at home. What made this holiday even more special was the fact that it was a multi-generational trip with our children and grandchildren. There was plenty of room for everyone to relax, unwind, and enjoy each other’s company. The property truly provided a perfect setting for family bonding, and we made wonderful memor

We had a great time staying at Catherine’s house with our family of 8 (including one toddler). The house was spacious for us. It was situated in a relaxing spot by the creek and had amenities (supermarket, food, etc) that we needed nearby (5-8 mins drive away). Highly recommend this place for a relaxing visit to Dora Creek!
