The Lakes House

Had a comfortable stay in a beautiful home. Responsive host

Host was excellent. House is brilliant. Couldn’t fault anything

Beautiful, clean house. Such a great view of the lakes. House well equipped with everything we needed. Is in a great location. Short walk to caves, Bridgewater Lakes for kayaking and swimming, Discovery Bay for playing in the sand. Short drive to Cape Bridgewater for swimming and body boarding. Children loved playing the piano in the house. Could easily have stayed for much longer. Would happily stay again.

A great location with lovely views, in a beautiful house with lots of history.

We loved our stay here! The views of the lakes and caves from the house, as well as the ocean from the top of the hill are stunning. Such a comfortable and spacious house and property. Thanks for the device free, cherished family memories in a special and for us, previously undiscovered part of Victoria!

A beautiful property in a stunning location. We felt very privileged to have stayed there. Thank you to Viona and Hayne.

The home was cozy, super clean, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. We loved the hiking trails nearby and soaking in the scenery. It was the kind of place where you can truly unplug and reset.Our host was kind, helpful, and respectful. You can tell they care deeply about both the property and the guest experience.If you're looking for quiet, nature, and a little slice of peace, this is it. We'd come back in a heartbeat. Thank you for sharing this beautiful spot with us!

Unbelievable, where do I start! The house was absolutely amazing and very comfortable. The enclosed verandah was a nice space to relax and enjoy the spectacular views across the lake and take in some winter sunshine. The hosts Viona, Hayne and Lisa were very accommodating and ensured we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. There is loads to do around Cape Bridgewater and surrounds. Some of the most spectacular coastal scenery Victoria has to offer. I couldn't recommend this property and experience more highly.

The Lake House is an exceptional place to stay with sweeping vistas and being close to nature. It truly is wonderful this family shares this beloved historical property with others. The home is very welcoming, well appointed with different spots to sit, enjoy and relax. The fires kept us cosy and were a treat after a day walking and exploring. We had a wonderful stay and will be back!

We stayed here for five nights in April, and it was a great spot for getting to the Great South West walking trail. The place was quiet with no neighbors, had ample parking, and the sunroom was a nice spot to relax in the afternoon. The second bathroom was the most updated of the two, although it wasn't as easily accessible. The outdoor space and furniture were nice for breakfast or an afternoon drink. The home was well-equipped, and the hosts were friendly and responsive. Overall, it was a good place for a relaxing stay.

We had a family catch up at the property with 2 Adult children and their partners. It was a fantastic location in the charming historic house, panoramic views of the lake, across the road from interesting caves and a pretty walk to the beach, all without having to get in the car.We enjoyed evening drinks and meals on the outdoor terrace and watching the sunset. The closed in verandahs would also be a cosy place to see the sunset in the cooler months. We want to return.

* The information booklet provided was very interesting to read about this historic house and property.* Fantastic location - walking distance to the caves & lakeside swimming access. Quick drive to nearby tourist sights & services.* Spectacular views over the lake at sunset, and across to the caves.* Well equipped kitchen and heaps of inside & outside space to spread out.* Really appreciated the proper beside reading lamps.* Highly recommend a holiday visit here.

We had an amazing family holiday at the Lakes House, a house that's incredibly rich in history set in a very special location. Whether it be walking through the front door where you see bright flowers and the beautiful Bridgewater Lakes out the back, or waking up in one of the front bedrooms where you look straight out into the ancient Tarragal Caves, this is a location like no other. The personal note from Viona, Hayne and Lisa was a loverly way to start our stay, and they provided everything we needed and more. We absolutely loved staying in this extraordinary house and very much hope to come back :)

Thanks for a lovely stay. We enjoyed the peaceful location, comfortable house and close proximity to the lakes that were ideal for swimming. Thanks Hayne!

We had a wonderful 3 night stay at the Lakes House through both a tropical strength rainstorm and glorious early summer days. The house is perfect for both situations. In the calm of the early morning, glassy conditions on the lakes revealed perfect reflections right down to the clouds in the sky.

Amazing scenery, very relaxing looking over the lake at sunset. The house is great, with lots of history that you can read about in the guest book. We were very privileged to be able to stay for two nights. Thanks Viona and team!

A beautifully presented home in a stunning location. Attention to detail was second to none. Very comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen and warm cosy fire. We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay.

life at the lake is good!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Five star review for a five star experience The lake house is situated on the banks of the lake Spectacular views from every room Magical looking out to the caves from the front bedrooms and the lakes at the back The hosts Lisa and Viona are very welcoming and keep the property spotless We stayed as a family and was lovely not having social media we were able to sit around the fire as a family and also enjoyed singing around the piano ?
