The Boat House - Absolute Waterfront 3br + Jetty

This stunning fully and tastefully renovated 3br former Boat Shed has morphed into a gorgeous house just steps to the waters edge with stunning views in a protected bay on Lake Macquarie.

This Waterfront home is perfect for families, couples or small groups and can sleep up to a maximum of 6 people (adults/children).

Level 1 : Living area and kitchen and 1 x Queen bedroom and Ensuite.
Level 2 : The lower level offers a queen bedroom and further bedroom with 2 single beds, full size bathroom and laundry facilities.

So in total we have 3 x bedrooms with a sunny and sparkling, direct waterfront aspect and views and access from living areas and bedrooms. There is a huge outdoor deck to enjoy for barbecues or for simply relaxing and enjoying the beautiful view. There is a level lawn area perfect for ball games or for children to play.

The bathrooms are stunning and the beds are the best that money can buy.

This is genuinely somewhere to relax, enjoy the water lapping and your doorstep.

The things we love are waking up early to enjoy the sun rising over the water and a cooling breeze in the afternoon.

The property has its own private jetty which means that once the kids catch the fish, you can cook it up in the new kitchen. There is also a slipway with access to a public boat ramp a few hundred metres away. The jetty will provide you access to the stunning waterways of Lake Macquarie for boating, water sports and beaches. For those less adventurous fishing off the jetty is a great option or Sunshine Reserve Baths and Sunshine Park playground for children a few mins walk away.

The Boat House is 40mins drive to the Hunter Valley Vineyards and 40mins to Caves Beach.

There are shopping amenities available within easy reach (Bonnells Bay 5 mins and Morisset 12 mins away).

Please note this property does have 22 steps down to access it via a large deck.

The Important Stuff -

Note: The neighbouring property is undergoing renovations which are registered with council as a construction site. Weekday guests may experience daytime noise and heavier than normal traffic in the immediate street area.

Important note for party planners:
Unfortunately this is not the property for you. This home is located in a quiet neighbourhood, so a hens/bucks/schoolies type celebration is not appropriate. We can easily determine if the house rule of “No parties or events” is disrespected, and this means additional charges and/or eviction will apply, which everyone wants to avoid. If you are unsure, please enquire before booking.

How We Price: The booking price is based on a minimum number of guests. Any guests above this number are chargeable on a per person/per night rate. The system will automatically calculate the correct rate when you enter the required number of guests. Reductions in guest numbers are non-refundable.

Arrival Details: Access to the property is made easy for you. We will send you an access code just before 2pm on your arrival day via SMS and you will use this code for the duration of your stay.

Linen: 1 set of full bed linens and 1 bath towel per person are supplied. Guests may wish to bring extra towels depending on the length of their stay. Pool/Lake/Beach towels are BYO

Guest Amenities: We are Eco-Friendly - we do not supply Shampoo, Conditioner or Body Wash. Guests are reminded to prepare & bring their own personal bathroom products/amenities. We will continue to supply Anti-Bacterial hand soap in a pump pack + Kitchen Necessities/Basics.

Fires and Firewood: Internal wood fireplaces and outdoor fire pits only operate after the NSW Easter School Holidays up to before the NSW September School Holidays in line with NSW state fire restrictions. Please note: we will normally supply enough firewood, kindling & fire-starters for between 1-2 nights of your stay. For guests wishing to have additional fires, we suggest BYO Firewood, Kindling, and Starters which can be easily purchased from the local service stations.

No Party Policy: All reservations operate under a Strict No-Party & Non-Excessive Noise Policy as prescribed in the NSW Short-Term Letting Legislation and Local Council Laws. This property is in a Residential Area. Failure to comply can put the security bond into jeopardy and may lead to police-assisted eviction and/or extra charges being levied. We hate to have to note this but the reality is that so far this year we have had to evict 3 groups for overstacking/bad/anti-social behavior.

Extra Guests / Visitors: The number of people nominated on your booking is the maximum number of people that are allowed to be on the property at any one time, including visitors. Visitors may be requested and if approved must be approved in writing with Weekenda staff. Simply put, if Mum and Dad want to come over for a BBQ then we are likely to approve. If 10 extra people want to stop by we are unlikely to approve, which could put your booking at risk. We will always try to be reasonable with reasonable people within property constraints and House Rules.

Cameras and Noise Monitoring: Please note that it is highly likely that we have installed a WiFi Security Camera at the Front Entrance (and sometimes rear of the property) We are progressively rolling these out through every property in 2022/2023

Guest Registration / ID Check : Weekenda requires every guest to complete and sign an electronic guest registration prior to arrival which will ask for photo ID i.e. a copy of your Drivers Licence or Passport. The primary booker will also be required to complete a list with the guests names and actual mobile numbers. In the event we are unable to reach the primary booker, it is very important we can get a hold of other guests. These documents will be deleted after your departure. Access Codes are only released to Registered and Verified Guests.

Insurance: As always, but ever so more due to recent times, we strongly encourage any holidaymakers to obtain a very inexpensive 3rd Party Domestic Travel Insurance Policy to cover you for all manners of matters which may restrict travel. This is particularly helpful for things like Hunter Valley Concert cancellations, Covid or Medical and Other Emergencies for which we don't provide refunds, and anything which falls under our standard Terms & Conditions irrespective of the reason. We suggest reviewing policies with 'Cover-More' or 'Travel Insurance Direct' or 'Insureandgo'

This property is managed by Weekenda, a licensed real estate. Weekenda staff are available 7 days a week to assist from your initial enquiry through to your departure and everything in between.

We look forward to having you stay with us.
