About this property

Avoca, Lakeside & Beachside

Delightful holiday home suitable for two families or mature groups . Interior features polished floorboards, 2 kitchens, 2 bathrooms one with a spa bath. Air conditioned.

Two lounge rooms, two dining rooms. We have no wifi but mobile phone hotspot geberally works well. There's a gas barbeque and outdoor setting at the back of the house. This area leads out onto a large grassed area which surrounds the house.

Sleeping arrangements: 2 queen bed rooms and three bedrooms each with two single beds. We also have two folding beds.

The house is in a great location right on Avoca Lake and a minute's walk from the beach.

The house is very safe - it's all on one level, well off the street (which is a cul de sac) and borders on the park which surrounds the lake. There is lots of off street parking for 6-8 cars if necessary. The back area with the BBQ and outdoor setting is fully enclosed for the safety of children.


Fantastic Access to Avoca Beach

It takes less than 2 minutes to reach Avoca Beach. Head along the lakeside (5 minutes) to the shops & restaurants of Avoca. Walk along the beach to Avoca (South) surf life saving club, shops & cafe.


An easy walk past Avoca Lake to Avoca Shops

It is only a short walk (1 minute) to fantastic views and waterside access to Avoca Lake. Enjoy views of the lakeside wetlands from the bedrooms and living areas.

Great location and heaps of room
The house is set right on the inlet at North Avoca, a great location, close to inlet and the beach. The house has heaps of rooms, enough for 2 families to visit and is very comfortable.

Great Holiday
Great location within walking distance to the beach. It is a older house but it was clean and we had no major issues and it met our requirements. Small quality gas BBQ in the back yard. We had a great holiday.

New Year family getaway
House location close to beach and lagoon was a plus. The bathrooms were extremely old dirty on arrival. Both shower heads needed replacement as water flow terrible. Also toilet flush buttons sticks continue running. Bbq gas empty on arrival. Neighbour blocked driveway with garbage bins every day very annoying to your guest getting in property.

Amazing location, good size house
The house location cannot be beaten - quiet, short walk to beach, shops and dining options, and it was plenty big enough for our group of 6.

Fabulous location
The drawcard for this property is being able to walk to a dog-friendly beach in about 3 minutes! The house and furnishings are in need of some TLC, and a really thorough clean. The upside of everything being older is that with kids we weren't paranoid about things getting damaged! It's a shame you can't open any windows as it can get a little stuffy in the house. The proximity to the beach and lake, however, meant we spent a lot of time outdoors. The house was a good size for 2 families and our Dad, and it was good to be able to separate the 2 ends of the house with the double doors. Bill was very accommodating and communicated well, and we appreciated the towels being supplied and beds made up for an extra fee.

Terrific location and plenty of space.
Well located house in a quiet street super close to the lagoon and beach. The house is well sized internally and tidy enough. It doesn't have a huge amount of bells and whistles, but it was well priced so can't expect the world.

Fantastic location for no frills holiday
The property is in an excellent location - right opposite Avoca Lake and an easy walk to cafes and shops in both North Avoca and Avoca. It's perfect for a dog friendly family. The house is spacious and clean and the kitchen is really well equipped. It is mostly an original 80's house with basic furniture but is ideal for a no frills relaxing beach holiday. The ceiling fans and air conditioning are great and very welcome because most windows cannot be opened.

A lovely holiday place close to the beach abs lake
A nice holiday home for family and pets. Could do with a bit more cleaning and an additional AC as there was only one which is not enough on hot days . That said, my grandsons and dog had a great time there ,

Brilliant location
We had a terrific two week stay in Dec/January with a multigenerational family group. The property was as pictured/advertised. The location is terrific. The house is of an older style but the kitchen was well stocked with utensils and basic items such as salt oil sugar, plastic bags, cleaning products etc etc. The laundry(s) were great. The check in process was easy. The fold out beds proved useful. The fans and aircon were brilliant in hot weather. The pegs had deteriorated on the clothes line, so bring your own pegs. The extra parking spaces were great. It’s a big house with good ventilation but some things could do with more cleaning, however, this did not detract from our enjoyment. This place is great for families because you can hire kayaks, SUPs or pedal boats on the lake. The ocean is also only a short easy walk away and the house is all on one level.

Cleanliness
The house is in the best location a min walk to the beach and lake . The only problem is the house was dusty in the bedroom specially the blinds on the room and underneath the beds I suffered asthma during my stay for 2 nights . The bathrooms didn’t have enough toilet paper we had to go and find shops that are open on Christmas Day to get one . The two kitchen one stove are not working every time we have to cook we have to go all the way to the front door kitchen to cook and all of the appliances for cooking are in the other kitchen .the bed is really soft and the spring make noises .

Pleasant weekend close to the beach
Great location near the beach and walking tracks . Backyard was great for kids and dog to run about. Kitchen well stocked and easy to use. The bedrooms right off the living area is not a usual layout. There was plenty of heating in both living area and bedrooms. Having two bathrooms was essential for a large family group.
