Fabulous place in perfect location
Gorgeous little place in a wonderful location. Spacious bedrooms, bathroom and living area, with great outdoor area with deck and plenty of room in the yard to play. No stove/oven but it wasn’t even an issue when BBQ, microwave and toaster did the job. Located on a perfect spot, between the main foreshore, to the beach and Woolies and walking distance to everything.Great coffee at Gippsland Jersey out the front. Would absolutely stay here again! Easy check in and communication with host. Many thanks.

Excellent, private location
Large secure yard which our dogs loved. Accomodation had all the basics we needed minus a cooktop, however given the weather, the bbq was more than sufficient for our needs.

Wonderful location
This is our second time returning to the property and will definitely be coming back again on a regular basis. Perfect hidden location on the esplanade. Huge open space yard, provided ample room for our cavoodle type dog to play and exercise safely. Nice clean presentation.

House and large block - convenient location
So surprised by the size of the property. The house was so cosy and it wa so appreciated that we could bring our 21 year old pet bird Flash - who had a great stay with all the local birds welcoming him. Walking distance to all we wanted to do which was great. Lovely quiet location.

Perfect Lakes Entrance
Basic, but extremely comfortable and welcoming space. Everything you need, maybe a bit more cover over the verandah but even that doesn’t distract from the good feel of the house

Christmas in Lakes Entrance
The position of the property was perfect for us and we greatly appreciated the seclusion. Walking inside we found the house to be spotless and reasonably well appointed. As the weather closed in it would have been great to have WIFI and a smart TV. Cooking on the BBQ was okay but as the gutters were rusted rain dripped onto the heated plates and there was no shelter. The dishwasher was a welcome addition but the shower head did not allow any real pressure which was a shame given the bathroom had been tastefully modernised. Overall we enjoyed our holiday and would recommend a holiday at Lakes Entrance to our friends.
