About this property
A beautiful home away from home on the lake
Kick back and relax at the' Bach on Lakefront property. Restful and healing place for those needing to get away from the city.
Sitting on the gorgeous Golden Mile, the baches consist of a modernized dwelling and two separate sleepouts' that add class. Set on a large section (1171m2 more or less) the property has heaps of room for extra campervans, petanque, glam campers, kayaks, boats, and much more!! Just spill out on the large deck. This is bound to attract the water lovers, with its proximity to a unique trout fishing experience, the local boat ramp, hot pools (5kms up the road), and cool drinks at the Old Trout Cafe

About the host
Hosted by Reshmi Fox
We are a group of friends that love this place and wanted to have a place of our own. Some of us do not own a property apart from this Property. I had a dream of having a community place where my friends and I can go, chill and spend time with each other and call it our own. We made this a reality and love this place so we would like to invite people to enjoy this lakefront property as much as we do. We donate our bach to people who are in need to take their loved ones who are sick and from some of the feedback, they have found the lake to be very healing for them. I would like to continue and donate to more to people who need respite and can contact me directly so that we can help families and get families together. We would love to help those that truly need help and healing or recovering from illness.
Why they chose this property
This is a unique lakeside property where there is nothing but zen time. If you are a water lover the lake is just perfect for those quick swim and sports. This can accommodate up to 10 people, unfortunately due to regulation only has one kitchen and bathroom but we have plans to extend and to accommodate another bathroom in the future.
What makes this property unique
We help those who need help in the community. We donate to those seeking respite and recovering from illness since our purchase of this property. We take pride in our charity work that this property allows us to do. The property has played a part in Home schooling up to 10 children and allowed respite for sufferers from illnesses.
