About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The secret is out...Iveagh Bay is the place to be!

Come and play in beautiful Iveagh Bay and enjoy stunning lake views, watch the fish jumping from the deck, birds swooping and sunsets that will take your breath away. We offer comfy beds, lush linen and a fabulous outdoor bath...
Enjoy 2 bedrooms indoors and a super cosy sleepout by a gentle creek.
No TV but we do have plenty of wifi, books and board games..

Iveagh Bay is the perfect base for exploring the West Coast or you can choose to stay put to relax and unwind. Climb to the top of Mt TeKinga, take in the wild bush and beautiful birdsong... you'll not be disappointed. Plenty of parking for boats and toys.
Soak in the outside tub with a glass of wine and gaze at the stars above....

Iveagh Bay
Tracey is an excellent host. Her thoughtfulness and great communication cannot be faulted. The house is immaculately clean and warm. We loved our stay. Highly recommend. The location is stunning, providing ample opportunity to explore the area.

Iveagh Bay Magic & Uber Cool Bach!
The bach at Iveagh Bay is simply one of the best we've stayed in. Tracey, our host was in touch before during and after our visit - to give us instructions on access, to check everything was OK and to ask for any suggestion about improving the experience (there was nothing by the way!) The home is tastefully decorated and refurbished, the facilities are first class, the beds and linen were super and the views of the lake out front and of the beautiful native garden in the back are gorgeous! Thanks Tracey - Murray, Sandi, Tom and Heather

Fantastic spot
We enjoyed a lovely weekend enjoying this great spot next to the lake. The house is clean, tidy and feels very homely. This is a great area to stay in to explore the lake.
