A small, older house, but in a charming nostalgic way. Clean, basic, with a phenomenal view. A big bonus to be able to bring our dog along.

Our stay at Lakescapes Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay here. The location and views were amazing and the property very comfortable. As per other reviews, the combined living/dining/kitchen is quite small. I couldn’t image it with four guests and suggest the owner turns the twin bedroom into a living room, which would make it a great stay for a couple.

Everything’s been provided, the house and block are kept in immaculate condition and all there’s little left to do than enjoy. We celebrated our 15 year anniversary and loved being able to take our Spoodle with us. Metung is such a stunning place, we left feeling so grateful to our host.

Beautiful views

Very basic property with beautiful views. Not very pet friendly because the only fenced area was a very tiny area, not big enough for medium sized dogs. Very few amenities, would be lovely in Summer not so much if the weather is bad.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved staying in this incredibly clean and inviting cottage. From the amazing views from the balcony , the well appointed red kitchen area to the comfortable beds, we truly loved our stay here. It’s a quick walk into town but the expansive views and more importantly the breathtaking sunsets from the balcony were truly amazing. The cottage had everything you need and we loved our stay here.

What a view!

We stayed for a week. The house was small but perfect for 2 people and a small dog. The view is amazing we loved sitting out on the deck, when the wind wasn't blowing. The house could do with some love, front deck has nails sticking out and timber rotting on walls. The Kitchen was lacking utensils, only one old rusty baking tray and a tiny frying pan. No tupperware, gladwrap or baking paper provided. Overall we had a great stay, the small things mentioned would have mate it even better.

Amazing view

Wonderful little cottage with amazing views. The balcony was secured and the large front yard was enjoyed by our little jack Russell. More than enough room to park our large boat. Comfortable master bed, good shower and laundry facilities. The kitchen has good amenities, with everything you need. The neighbour was friendly and helpful. We definitely want to come back. Thank you Carolyn for the easy, no worries check in process. Regards Shauna, Steve and little Tommy🐾

facelift

Great location, would not recommend accommodating more than 2 people. Living space very small yet can sleep 4 people. Bathroom was clean but needs an update. Half a roll of loo paper is not going to cut it for a 4 night stay. Beds comfy, view beautiful but back deck and furniture old.

Best view review

We couldn’t have had a better view than what this house provides of beautiful Lake King. It took us a little while to adjust to how small this house is but once we did we fully appreciated the limited housework and beach vibe that came with it. Also very comfortable bedding and recliner couch. Our dogs joined us and lovely safe property except grass was very long when we arrived and with snake season this was a concern however it was cut on the 7th day we were there. We stayed 10 nights and feel recharged and ready for the year ahead.

Exceptional Views

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a good stay in this small but comfortable cottage situated high above Lake King, bedroom windows and deck facing the lake for excellent water and westerly views.Would suit a couple and or maybe a child. Reason is that the kitchen, dining table and lounge is one space and small in area. Fit out is all you need for a good stay. Probably works best as a stay in warm and mild weather. No rear garden which faces the lake but the deck is large and comfortable and secure for pets. Front yard very large lawn but not secure for pets. Neighbours are friendly and helpful. Essentially one pays for the quiet location with the outstanding views.Great stay for the views and if you like small living space.
