Pool house is the best in Lemon Tree Passage
My wife and our dog stayed at the pool house a year ago and when we decided again to spend a week at Port Stephens, it was clear that the Pool House was the obvious choice. Perfect for adults and the dog loves the place too

Pool House Delight
What a great place to stay; thank you Jan (host) for your presentation of the Pool House, it would rival any Studio apartment in a large complex. Tastefully appointed kitchen, lounge, bedroom and bathroom, plenty of room to stretch out. An added bonus is the exclusive use of the sparkling pool (if the weather had been hotter) and a large backyard for the dog. Close to the inland waterway with great walking tracks near by. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend it with or without a pooch.

An Immaculate House
The Pool House is an immaculate single bedroom property. Pristine cleanliness, very well furnished and with all modern conveniences. It is very well located for the Lemon Tree Passage beach, and lovely bike path to the village. We loved staying there and highly recommend the property.

Beautiful private pool
The pool house is an amazing private 1 bedroom apartment located in the backyard of a shared property in Lemon Tree Passage. When you first arrive it looks a bit daunting going into the backyard of the pet it one you arrive it is secluded and beautiful. You have the pool to yourself and best of all the place is dog friendly
