Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Zodiac Bay Lake Retreat and brought it because it's such a special spot, right next to the reserve and lake. The reserve is great for picnics, kicking a ball around, and letting the kids run wild. And with the lake just steps away, it's perfect for taking the kayaks out for a fun paddle. It's the kind of place where you can really unwind and have a good time
What makes this property unique
Zodiac Bay Lake Retreat is unique for its perfect blend of natural beauty, spacious comfort, and convenient location. Situated right by a scenic reserve and tranquil lake, it offers direct access to outdoor activities like kayaking and picnicking. With five bedrooms, it comfortably sleeps up to 12, making it an ideal choice for larger groups and families. The retreat’s spacious layout ensures everyone has room to relax, while the serene surroundings and close proximity to local attractions provide the perfect backdrop for creating lasting memories
