- Visit the Hunter for some wine tasting
- Table tennis (located downstairs)
- Kids swing & climbing outdoor equipment
- Dining: go for a casual lunch at Catho Pub, new Caves Hotel or neighbouring restaurants at Rafferty's Resort (2 minute drive) or....just kick back & relax with a BBQ on the balcony as you watch the sunset over the lake.
- Boating (tie your boat up at the water's edge in the backyard)
...& for those necessities, there is a local corner shop within walking distance (along the lake's edge), or take a 7 minute drive to Swansea to a supermarket & more restaurants.

Guest Comments:
The location is beautiful - just perfect. We tied our boat up in the back yard and enjoyed coming and going at our leisure. The home is beautifully decorated, well appointed and a pleasure to stay in. Watch out for the kookaburras when you're eating breakfast! Rebecca. Rating: 5/5

house on Lake Macquarie, we will definately be recommending the place to
friends. Mark
