The Lakehouse - Exclusive Waterfront Escape

Wake up to sweeping lake views and gentle water breezes at The Lakehouse, a peaceful three-bedroom, two-bathroom retreat set directly on the shores of Swan Bay at Marks Point.



With spacious open-plan living, soaring cathedral ceilings, and a stunning waterfront setting, this home offers the perfect blend of relaxation, comfort, and adventure for families or small groups looking to unwind by the lake.
