Crown Cottage - close to Seal Rocks
Situated just a short stroll from the picturesque lake, it's an ideal spot for fishing enthusiasts or those seeking a leisurely picnic by the water's edge. Plus, with the local beaches of Pacific Palms just a short drive away, endless seaside adventures await.
Relax and unwind on the covered deck out the back, boasting filtered lake views that provide a serene backdrop for alfresco dining or simply soaking up the natural beauty of the surroundings. Fire up the BBQ and gather around the outdoor table and bench seat for memorable meals under the open sky.
Immerse yourself in the beauty of Tarbuck Bay and Pacific Palms, where every moment promises relaxation, exploration, and cherished memories.

Smiths Lake : For those wanting to enjoy still waters instead of the open ocean, Smiths Lake is the number one choice in the Pacific Palms area. Shrouded by a lush littoral forest and neatly separated from the sea by Sandbar Beach, this is a family favourite for those eager to enjoy a spot of water-skiing, boating, paddling or windsurfing (the open lake waters making for a windsurfers dream). With an impressive catchment area spanning 32 square kilometres and waterways of 11 square kilometres you can enjoy all the benefits of this unique, tucked-away calm waterway.
