The Lake House - Complete Lakefront Oasis at Murrays Beach, Surrounded by Native Bushland & Wildlife

Our home is the perfect place to wake up to the beautiful pristine lake views, enjoy a day of kayaking, complete with the perfect backyard and outdoor space to enjoy a BBQ with loved ones as the sunsets. The Lake House is everything you could possibly want to unwind and reset from the hustle and bustle of city life!



You will love your stay in this beautiful & custom-designed, 1 of a kind, stunning home. Nestled amongst extensive gardens that extend to the waters edge of Lake Macquarie at Murrays Beach, this designer home has a fully equipped kitchen, lounge-dining area completed with a beautiful gas fireplace in the middle and undercover BBQ area. Managed by Getawayz NSW, Superhosts and one of the most highly reviewed holiday rental agencies, The Lake House has views of and access to the waterfront of Lake Macquarie. This elegantly appointed home has multiple living areas, has a private bathroom for the master with a double shower, with quality products. The home comes with air-conditioning, smart TV's in both the living room and the master bedroom, gorgeous styling and is perfect for the family getaway!



The high set windows offer a truly architectural feel and the connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces flows seemingly. Both the living and kitchen areas flow onto the large balcony, as well as the master bedroom, and the second bedroom that can be set up as either a king or two singles (whichever you prefer).



With filtered lake glimpses that catch your eye in the afternoon sun, this is the perfect place for your family weekend getaway or extended vacation. We highly recommend a beer or champagne with the BBQ at sunset - there is nothing more tranquil!



You are also moments to the Murray's Restaurant for your morning coffee fix or lunch and dinner served Friday and Saturday night!



Just a short drive and you'll have access to local beaches such as Caves Beach and Catherine Hill Bay, and all the amenities of Swansea. Located close to all the Central Coast has to offer & within a short 1.5-hour drive from Sydney, we hope to welcome you soon.

Awesome Lakeside House

Spent 10 days with the family at this awesome house overlooking Lake Macquarie, in a great eco-development. House was super well equipped and so much space. Spent many hours just sitting on the balcony watching the world go by, and when not doing that kayaking on the lake or going for local walks. Property also close to great Beaches, as well as Newcastle and the Hunter Valley. Will definitely be back.

Our Best Yet!!

We have been taking the family away after Christmas for 11 years now, choosing a different location each year. This was voted as the best yet! A little remote in terms of walking distance to shops but a beautiful lakeside location. The house is absolutely beautiful, incredibly well equipped and furnished. A gorgeous pool and kayaks and paddle board just added to overall enjoyment in perfect Sydney Summer conditions. Thanks we would love to come back again!!

Our Best Yet!!

We have been going away for a long weekend with the family for 11 years and this was voted our best yet. Location was a little remote in terms of walking distance to shops etc but spectacular. The house was beautifully equipped and decorated both inside and out. The pool was fabulous and well used by all and the kayaks just added to our family fun. Thanks so much and we would love to come again. 5 stars all round.

A Perfect Coastal Escape – Highly Recommended!

Our stay at the Lake House was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the immaculate presentation and welcoming ambiance of the home. Nestled in a peaceful, leafy location just a short walk from the lake, the house offered the perfect blend of relaxation and convenience. The interiors are beautifully styled with modern coastal décor, and everything was spotlessly clean. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and we especially loved enjoying breakfast on the spacious outdoor deck surrounded by native birdsong. The bedrooms were cozy and comfortable, with quality linens that made it easy to unwind after a day of exploring. The hosts have clearly thought of everything. Whether you're looking to explore the nearby walking trails, swim in the pool, lake or beach, or simply relax with a book, this place has it all. We can’t wait to return — this hidden gem is now one of our favorite coastal getaways!
