  Sara & Allen W from Corowa, New South Wales recommends this vacation rental

  Modern, super clean with everything you could need. Wifi would have been handy but better without on holiday. We spent a great six nights at this property such a lovely place which accepted our fur babies who were catered for in a well maintained private and secure outside area. Within walking distance to the beach and cafes we couldn't have asked for a more perfect property. Loved every minute and wish to come back asap! A big Thank You to Gippsland Lakes Escapes for your fantastic customer service, it is a pleasure to use your online booking system plus helpful professional face to face contact, you made our stay complete.

  This was a lovely 3 bedroom house, well looked after with everything you need.
  We had 4 adults and a baby, lots of space two driveways walking distance to a park, little beach and coffee shops as well as food.
  
  Only negative was only one extra roll of toilet paper for 4 adults was not enough

  Nerelle L from Fish Creek, NA recommends this vacation rental

  Loved the location and the house was lovely, it was warm and comforatable, yard was good for our pets.
  This house captured all the sun shining through the windows when we walked in,you could see all fingerprints on appliances and the floors looked a bit grubby. And although the toaster didn't work the lovely jam and fresh bread and warmth was a lovely touch.

  a guest from Newport, VIC recommends this vacation rental

  The house is an easy living, clean house, with a small back garden and front garage. The rooms are a good size and the bathrooms are well equipped. There is AC in the living area but unfortunately not in the front bedroom, which gets sun particularly in the morning. There are fans though. We felt our stay was really good, the kitchen and other equipment is easy to use and the house is walking distance to shops and ferry, though not directly at the lakes.
