The Lakefront Haven perfect for families and friends creating lifelong memories
Welcome to your lake escape in Fishing Point, where every stay is about slowing down, making memories, and enjoying the best of Lake Macquarie. From morning coffees on the balcony watching the sun sparkle on the water, to evenings in the heated spa under the stars, this home is designed for unforgettable family getaways.
With a private jetty, you can spend the day fishing with the kids, launching your boat for a lakeside adventure, or simply watching the pelicans and boats glide past. Families will love the choice of activities – from a friendly Wii tournament in the main lounge, to movie marathons in the rumpus room, to BBQ feasts enjoyed together on the balcony overlooking the lake.
The large, open spaces make it easy for everyone to come together. Gather for shared meals in the 12-seat dining room, enjoy outdoor dining with plenty of room for adults and kids, or let the children explore while parents relax in peace.
After a day of adventure, retreat to the spacious bedrooms designed to sleep up to 10 guests comfortably. With multiple living areas, two BBQs, and a heated outdoor spa, there’s something here for every generation to enjoy.
Beyond the home, the lake is your playground – whether it’s fishing, boating, kayaking, or exploring the nearby Balmoral Boat Ramp. For those who prefer to take it slow, simply sit back, breathe in the fresh lakeside air, and watch the ever-changing views from the comfort of your balcony.
Fishing Point also offers plenty of local experiences: - Scenic walking and cycling tracks for gentle family adventures. - Boat hire and speed boat adventures as well as a boat ramp just 900m away - Just 1km to the brand new Fishing Point Park - Toronto Golf Course only 7 mins away - Local cafés and shops just minutes away for coffee, snacks, and treats. - Easy access to nearby markets in Speers Point, Toronto and Morisset.

We had a lovely family getaway at the Lakefront Haven. There was ample space for everyone, with one living area dedicated to TV watching and the other to conversing and a jigsaw puzzle. Breakfast and lunch at the outdoor tables was sublime, and being able to keep small watercraft right on the lakefront for teenagers to use when they wanted was perfect for our needs.
