Great Location and View
Stayed with my partner and dog. The house is great. What really sold it for us was the fully fenced yard for our dog, was perfect. The house backs right onto the lake with access and a walking trail. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t on our side so we couldn’t do much outdoors, but the cards and board games kept us occupied. Cafes, shops and restaurants are all within 5 minutes of the house which is good. The beach was also 5 minute drive. Will definitely book this place again and hopefully the weather will be a little nicer. The host is also super cool to deal with.

Great stay!
This is our second stay here and once again we had a lovely break - kids and dog included. The property is spotlessly clean and very well appointed. The view out the back is lovely and very relaxing. If you're staying during the week it's well worth strolling along the waterfront to the Birdy cafe food truck. Great coffee, homemade pies and breakfasts.
We all agreed that we'd happily come back again 😊

Exceptional property with lovely outlook!
Lakeside House is a beautifully clean and incredibly well maintained property. It is very well equipped and easily caters to adults / children and canines alike. It’s in a great position and close to shops and beaches. It really made for a very enjoyable and relaxing stay!
It’s a strong recommendation from us if you’re looking for a central coast break! The owners of the property have done a great job - we just wish all our Stayz bookings were up to this standard!

Perfect lakeside relaxing accommodation
Lakeside is a clean and well maintained property with all amenities for an enjoyable stay.
The property is secure for both children and pets with uninterrupted views overlooking the lake.
A quiet relaxing environment, Lakeside is also walking distance to both the local shopping area and the variety of restaurants and cafes in Ocean Road area.
If you do decide to do some home cooking the kitchen is well equipped plus there is a full laundry.
Communication regarding the stay was easy with both Rohan and Avril making sure our booking and stay was a pleasant experience.
Definitely a good find in Budgewoi.

Magic location
Really nice house in a magic location. Comfy beds and furniture and all of the additional extras you could need. Great back deck, and our dog loved the enclosed yard. Plenty of nearby shops within a short walk. We loved it.
