About the host

Hosted by Stephen

Host profile image
We're a couple in our 50's who are semi retired. We have 2 adult children and live in Sydney's northern beaches area. We try to get to "Sand" at every opportunity as we simply love the chilled atmopsphere of the area.

Why they chose this property

Having holidayed at other properties in the area over the years, we were always keen to buy a nice house if one came up with the intention of retiring there. One such house did come up and we were fortunate enough to be able to secure it. We have since spent a great deal of time undertaking much needed renovation & maintenance and are now proud to offer a well maintained, clean and well equipped holiday home with as many home comforts as possible.

What makes this property unique

This property is located on the absolute waterfront of a quite bay in Mannering Park on the southern shores of Lake Macquarie. We offer a 25 metre jetty at the back door to park your boat or jet ski and the boat ramp is in sight just 200 metres along the waterfront. There is plenty of parking and we have lovely neighbours.
