    This cozy cottage is great for a school holiday trip. The location is fantastic, offering stunning lake views right from the hammock on the front deck—perfect for relaxing. I didn’t have time to do any research prior to the trip. When we got there we were glad to know there were plenty of activities nearby to enjoy, and Ken’s guide book and weblink were so thorough! Also he ‘s incredibly helpful and always provided prompt answers and solutions to any questions we had.

    Our week of holiday was absolutely amazing. House was clean, equipped with everything needed to enjoy the view of lakes. Short drive to the beach, you can even walk there . I think we will come again.

    My husband and I had a wonderful weekend at Lakeview Cottage! This charming cottage was beautifully furnished and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The view of the lake was absolutely stunning, especially at sunset. It was peaceful, quiet, and the perfect place to relax, yet still conveniently close to Forster Shopping Village. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay and would love to return! Highly recommend!!!

    Nice self contained cottage but mosquitoes are a massive issue

    Lots of mosquitoes day and night 24/7 could not enjoy the balcony with view or going outside the property, to eat or have a drink or bbq with out getting eaten alive. Even with bushman’s spray on the body , still got bitten and wife is allergic to mosquitoes she welted up. Gap between the entry door and flys screen when closed so mosquitoes get into the house and eat you alive as well while you sleep even if you spray the whole place before you go to bed Had to close all windows and doors to reduce the mosquitoes entering maybe a zap light inside and out side would help a little , felt like I was locked up inside due to mosquitoes besides that I would give it 100%

    Was a nice place to stay very well equipped as a self contained cottage had everything you need to cook up a meal very impressed. Place is close to Forster Nice and quiet and very friendly owner

    The driveway is a little narrow. Not really a negative though. Lovely stay.

    The frangipanis were in bloom; the evening chorus of kookaburras was wonderful, the changing mood of the lake view from the verandah; the hammock in afternoon dappled light. Well equipped kitchen. Puzzles on rainy day.

    Only minor "complaint" would be the exclusion of beach towels. Fortunately, we were able to borrow some from nearby relatives, but for those travelling to the Forster-area and looking to lounge on the beach, a set of towels would probably be appreciated. Having said that - Ken (host) was very responsive during our stay and could have probably provided beach towels had we asked.

    A lovely location, with beautiful views over the lake. Loved sitting outside for breakfast (listening to the birds chirping was delightful), dinner (taking in the gorgeous sunsets) and lounging in the hammock soaking in the afternoon sun. Check in/out was seemless and well-communicated, and Ken (host) was very responsive during our stay. Was great to have laundry on-site, including outdoor hanger for drying. Overall, the property was clean, tidy and very comfy. It was nice to be located outside of the Forster city-centre, but easy to get ino town via car (10-15 min drive) or bus (didn't use, but it seemed convenient enough).
