About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

A two-storey house with sweeping views of Bass Strait and the North Arm.

This house is an ideal family retreat, with enough room for a boat trailer. The back yard is fully fenced making it safe for children and your dog.

A large back deck was added in 2023 giving easy access to the large backyard. This compliments the front deck with water views.

The open plan is simple with clean crisp lines so as to not distract from the stunning views that can be enjoyed from all parts of the top level and on the large balcony that runs the length of the house.
In 2026 I added a wood burning heater. It is just lovely on those odd wet days we even get in the summer. You will need to bring your own fire wood.
Wifi is now available at no additional cost

There are even glimpses of water views from each of the 3 bedrooms downstairs.
One queen, 1 double and bunk beds in the 3rd room.
Linen ( Sheets and bath towels ) are provided.
You need to bring your own beach towel.

The garden is planted with banksias and other native plants attracting a range of birds that visit daily. As you lie in bed each night you will hear the distant waves from the sea to lull you to sleep. There is no traffic noice from this property to keep you awake.

It is a quiet street away from the bustle of town but only a 2min drive to the beach however with views like this you might be reluctant to leave home.

The facilities are well stocked so that you will have everything you need to be able to cook from home and enjoy dinning outside on one of the large decks.
There is one full bathroom with shower, bath and toilet. This is next to the master bedroom This is an additional shower in the laundry. A 2nd toilet was added to the full bathroom this season with the other toilet in a private space between the laundry and master bathroom.

Pets are to be outside however I am open to discuss some concessions.
This is a self-check in property with no owner looking over your shoulder however I am always just a phone call away should you have any questions.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a fenced private yard.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house felt like a home away from home with beautiful views of the lake and ocean. The large backyard was perfect for the kids to play in and there was plenty of games and toys to keep them occupied as well. Julie was a great host and very responsive.

The house was extremely clean and welcoming. Beautiful garden with wonderful bird life. Just two things to mention though which did not stand out when we booked, no internet and no dishwasher. Not a big problem for 3 older women, however we will check booking info more carefully now.

Perfect location with Lakes Entrance

We had a very enjoyable time staying at Julie’s place. The location is set back from the esplanade up on the hillside which provides amazing views across the region. The house was perfect for the 3 of us and the visit by the local birds on the balcony each morning was a pleasant surprise. Highly recommend for a family stay.

Lovely stay

Julie was a wonderful host who ensured we had everything we needed. The house is as described and was wonderful for us, 2 couples and 2 kids. It's about 2.5km to the front up and down some hills but we had a car so found it easy to get about. Lots of birds in the surrounding trees and a good outdoor space. Lots of books and toys for adults and kids.

Tranquility at its best!

Julie, our host, has done an amazing job with this property. The home and location is perfect, set in a quiet street overlooking the North Arm. Fastidiously Clean, amazing views and so very relaxing. The beautiful array of native birds in the garden and the enjoyment of eating breakfast with the local magpies is part and parcel of this fantastic home. The lovely big back yard is well fenced and suitable for taking your loved fur babies. Thank you so much for allowing us to enjoy this very special place. We are already working out when we can return for another stay. Regards Adele and Drew
