About this property

Fishing Point Lake House



Fishing Point Lake House is a nicely renovated cottage across the road from the lake's edge in a quiet relaxing spot with water views overlooking the lake. Why share with others when you can have the privacy of a house to yourselves on a large block of land.

Relax and enjoy the changing moods of the lake, the house picks up lovely breezes from the lake. Watch the boats cruise by and the pelicans glide, and enjoy sunsets over the water. Quiet and peaceful location.

Air conditioner and ceiling fans for good air circulation (bedrooms and 2 in the main living / kitchen).

Fishing in Australia's largest saltwater lake, access to Fishing Point Reserve is 150m, I go off the rocks and pick up some nice bream, flatties, squire, flounder and leather jackets sometimes :)

Or get active with Lake Macquarie to enjoy. Easy access to the lake, fishing, swimming, great walks, bike rides, boating, jetski, sailing, windsurfing, photography.
Explore the Hunter (wineries, mountains, Newcastle etc) whatever is your thing.

Boats have good access with off road parking for the car(s) and boats, 1 lock up garage. The public boat ramp is 1 Km.

Large block of land (1/3 of an acre). Why share with others when you can have your own fully appointed home away from home weekender?

Fishing Point is situated on Lake Macquarie, Australia's largest salt water lake. 1 hour drive from the Sydney beginning of the F3 , take the Morriset off ramp.

Fishing Point Lake House is overlooking Eraring Bay towards Wangi Wangi (South aspect) which is about 3 Km across water.

Great spot, the house is the classic weekender cottage with all its charms. The house has a lakeside feel with everything you need for a relaxing break. Great views.

Simple accommodation, but clean and everything U need.
Garry was very easy to communicate with, and the accommodation was as described. It's an old house but everything was clean and well equipped. My boys enjoyed walking down and fishing nearby.
