Enjoyable and relaxing!

This is a great place for a holiday by the lake. The house is really big and very well equipped. I must say the air conditioning was very welcome given the muggy conditions and smoke from the distant bushfires. We enjoyed some great games at the pool table and went kayaking on the lake. Only thing missing are cafés/restaurants nearby but it wasn't really a problem as we cooked most of the time. Thanks Margie!

Thanks Jean-Marc. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay. There are great places about 15 minutes away for restaurants/cafe like Trinity Point, Bonnells Bay and Morisset but not within walking distance. Next time I’ll debrief you on food options!! Thanks. Margie

Beautiful Location

Our stay at Bonnells Lakeside was beautiful! The house was clean and well-equipped, and location was amazing for a week of fishing and fun. Margie was always responsive and lovely to communicate with, and the neighbors/locals were friendly.

Great stay but spoilt by the leak in the rumpus room that rendered it unusable.

Great location Wonderful view of the lake Very comfortable on two levels. Unfortunately there was a leak in the rumpus room ceiling (Bottom Level) that caused mold and a terrible damp smell that made it impossible to use. Perhaps if someone had checked the property prior to our arrival this problem rectified and we could have had access to the whole property. A great pity as this is a wonderful property.

Unfortunately, we experienced storm damage to the basement room which we have since repaired and are installing new flooring and furniture. The problem was unexpected and beyond our control. We are sorry the rain affected your stay and we will endeavour to keep our home in perfect condition.

Lovely home.

The house was clean and tidy, with lovely decor. A few mix ups with parking as it borders another dwelling; however, they were accommodating and moved their vehicles. Amazing veiws, lots of beds, perfect place for a large family or a small group. Property manager was quick and helpful with responses. Completely recommend.
