Peaceful and immaculate
Beautiful property, immaculately clean and the owner was a pleasure to deal with. Lovely spot to sit on the front balcony - lake views and lots of active bird life to watch and listen to including owls overnight . Short drive into Boomerang for dinner and 10 minute walk to Smiths Lake shops for supplies. All the beaches nearby; can’t wait to return!

Roomy house.
Great location, close to lake & short drive to beaches. Quiet street with lots of birdlife. Very roomy house with comftable furniture, plenty of tablewear, cookwear & appliances. Ceiling fans were sufficient at keeping the place ventilated in humid wearher. Clean & well stocked with every day cleaning essentials. Mobile reception was non existent for 3 different companies so communicating with house members was difficult when we were out for the day.

Beautiful home for a family vacation.
Avalon is a beautiful, peaceful home to stay in. Ross was a very attentive host. Our big kids really appreciated the coffee pods which were great as I hadn’t packed any. We mainly cooked at home and had everything there we needed. The beds were comfortable, garage a plus and couldn’t fault anything. Thank you Ross for sharing your beautiful home!

Perfect January getaway
A beautiful, spacious home in a quiet area was the perfect, post-Christmas getaway for a group of friends. The location was great as a base for walks, beach visits, fishing, surfing etc, and the home was ideal for relaxing with a good book or in front of a movie (the couches were a hit!) Ross was very prompt with communication, which was also super helpful. In terms of the area, there aren't a lot of options close by in terms of dining out in the evening, so you will either need to cook on the BBQ or in the well-equipped kitchen or drive the 20 minutes to Forster. Also, internet reception can be somewhat patchy in the area (but sufficient.) Definitely recommend!

magic at smiths lake
thank you so much Ross for sharing your little piece of paradise with us, we were 3 mums who took their kids for a short break and we had an unbelievable time. The house was clean , spacious and very very comfortable especially the lounge with all the recliners, so much so kids gave up their beds and wanted to sleep on the couches! Beautiful view of smiths, short stroll to the lake and a truly surreal view of the star lite night sky from the front porch. Highly recommend this spot if you haven't been there already.

Comfortable house with a nice fire for chilly nights! It would be good if there was a bit stronger water pressure as the bath took forever to fill. Loved the lake views!

Great view & Value for money
It's a nice stay for our 2 families. The location is great with a scenic water view & the house has everything what anyone can expect in a holiday home. Outstnding kitchen, handy fireplace, comfy recliner lounges make this place a perfect home away from home. Indeed a 5 star service from Ross (Owner) ...much appreciated Sir. Highly recommend for families with kids.
