Nice house and great place for both family and pets. Great location with the lake at your backyard. Little more maintenance around the back yard would make it better.

Lakeside getaway
The house is well equipped and very comfortable. It was great to have the fire for the cool nights. It was a nice touch to have the welcome bottle of wine and biscuits. Lovely sitting out the back and watching the sun set across the lake.

Nice relaxing family break
We had a great time here. From having meals and socialising in the generous living area to the easy access to the lake behind the property for water activities the location and amenities are fantastic. There is plenty of things to do in the area, though a car is necessary (which we knew). When driving around the area it is a nice location, with lakes both north and south along with the national park and beaches not far away. Thanks very much!

We loved our stay!
We were a group of two families (4 adults and 4 kids) and we had the most wonderful stay! Communication with Kaitlyn and the team was easy, fast and much appreciated. The house was perfect - very clean, super comfy beds, well appointed kitchen, plenty of space for everyone. We loved the location and out look from the back towards the lake - particularly during the gorgeous sunsets we were treated to! Also a bonus were the kayaks which were enjoyed by all. We would love to return to Sunset Escape! Thanks for having us and providing a perfect place for our stay.

Excellent stay
We enjoyed our stay very much. Relaxed and peaceful area. The house was perfect for us and had all we needed. Spotless (compliments to the cleaners). We did not attempt to use the table tennis because it appeared to have issues. (Wheel missing and broken strut). We would definitely stay again. It was just what we were after. Thankyou.

Nice weekend
We enjoyed our stay, nice property. It had all the necessities for a lovely weekend. The family enjoyed the canoes. We took our 91yr old father and the property was perfect for the elderly with no steps. If I was to fault anything it would be the curtains in all rooms let down the property. They don’t work or close properly. Oh and although you can’t let your dog off the lead in the reserve out the back the rope system set up was great! Thank you for a nice weekend.

Big house, very clean and pet friendly.The only tip for this house is the traps are switched soo if you’re staying here the cold tap is actually hot and hot is cold.

Beautiful lake views with small waterside deck to enjoy your morning coffee or afternoon wine. Modern, comfortable and beautiful location. Pet friendly although a side gate would be ideal to stop pups from wandering roadside.
