LAKE VIEW RETREAT - Relax, Unwind, & Make Memories
Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this welcoming holiday spot offers the perfect blend of relaxation and fun for couples and families alike. There is plenty of parking at the home for the boat and there is a double driveway. Step onto the brand-new deck and soak in the stunning lake views, with a peaceful outlook that blends suburban charm and open green spaces. Its the kind of setting that instantly helps you switch off and breathe easy. Just a short drive or stroll brings you to the lakes edge for swimming, boating, or lazy afternoons by the water. The local golf course is nearby and the scenic swing bridge walk and cycle trail is a must-do for nature lovers. Handy local shops include a 4 square, classic fish and chips, and a laid-back club where you can grab a meal or a drink. Inside the home is neat and tidy and well set up, comfortably sleeping 4 to 6 people. Whether you are here to explore, play or simply unwind, this peaceful spot offers the perfect lake-side escape with just the right mix of space, scenery, and serenity.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

Mango House views
Mango House was perfect for our visit! The views of the lake and country side were breathtaking and Insta worthy for sure. The house had everything you need for an home away from home feel and the hosts went the extra mile to ensure we had an amazing holiday. I would give 10/10 if it were an option

Highly recommended
Great location - easy walk or drive to the shops, golf course and lake, with unobstructed views of the river from the spacious lounge and large front deck. Friendly neighbours all around but felt really private. Comfortable beds and modern bathroom and kitchen made it a really enjoyable stay. Would definitely book again!
