We loved our stay here! The views of the lakes and caves from the house, as well as the ocean from the top of the hill are stunning. Such a comfortable and spacious house and property. Thanks for the device free, cherished family memories in a special and for us, previously undiscovered part of Victoria!

An amazing stay

The Lake House is an exceptional place to stay with sweeping vistas and being close to nature. It truly is wonderful this family shares this beloved historical property with others. The home is very welcoming, well appointed with different spots to sit, enjoy and relax. The fires kept us cosy and were a treat after a day walking and exploring. We had a wonderful stay and will be back!

Beautiful place

The house was amazing. Everything about it was amazing including the history of the house, the renovations on the house, the views from the property, the welcoming of the owners, and the activities in the area. We will definitely stay there again if we get a chance.

Beautiful, clean house. Such a great view of the lakes. House well equipped with everything we needed. Is in a great location. Short walk to caves, Bridgewater Lakes for kayaking and swimming, Discovery Bay for playing in the sand. Short drive to Cape Bridgewater for swimming and body boarding. Children loved playing the piano in the house. Could easily have stayed for much longer. Would happily stay again.

Very Relaxing Stay

We had a lovely relaxing time. The peacefulness and even with the cold weather the property had a warm charm about it, then add the fire places, definitely worth the stay. The hosts are lovely to deal with. My friends and I needed this break away and we thank you.

Beautiful inside and out

Absolutely enjoyed our stay at the Lakes House. The house was spacious, well equipped and homely. There was so much to do: caves, hills, lakes, exploring, beach, walks and stars. We hope to come back again one day.
