2009 Finalist TakeABreak Best Places to Stay

Cottage, Holiday house, Fibro weekender

Just 20 minutes drive south of Forster in beautiful Pacific Palms and nestled in a quiet cul de sac adjoining a peaceful rainforest, you will find Lakeside Holiday House, only 100 metres walk to the shores of gorgeous Smiths Lake. Or walk a further 10 minutes to Brambles reserve, another "off-leash" pet exercise area. Lakeside is ideal for pets and kids. Enjoy boating, swimming, picnics, kayaking, fishing or windsurfing.

The back yard contains an undercover BBQ area, massive 400sqm level grass yard enclosed by a newly built 1.8m high fence - safe for kids and pets.This is the most secure, pet-friendly yard you will find. An enclosed vegetable and herb garden and beautiful views of the adjoining rainforest.

A fully renovated holiday cottage, Lakeside contains 3 spacious bedrooms, a brand new bathroom, toilet and kitchen with dishwasher and all new timber look flooring... no carpet which means peace of mind with kids and pets!

A separate living area adjoins one of the double bedrooms so the kids or in-laws can watch their own TV, DVD and Foxtel or enjoy some quiet time. These rooms also look out onto the gorgeous rainforest, yard and BBQ area.

The open plan kitchen and lounge room offer plenty of sunlight and has a TV/DVD and CD/radio. The bathroom has a bath and shower in one. Large enough to fit 4 kids!

We are passionate about pets and all three of our properties are purpose built/renovated pet-friendly houses. We provide the most secure yard which is very important when holidaying with your four-legged loved ones and they are allowed inside too.
