About this property

Nelson's Lookout - Russell Holiday Home

Boasting a spectacular coastal outlook unlike any other, you'll love nothing more than watching the world go by at this breathtaking coastal retreat. Welcome to Nelson's Lookout!

The light and bright kitchen and dining spaces offer the perfect spot to ease into your morning. From here, move into the contemporary living room, where vaulted ceilings complement the spacious feel and expansive views.

For those days where a cosy moment on the couch is calling, get comfy in front of the TV with Sky, or put your feet up on the chaise lounge with a cuppa and a good book, and your favourite music playing on the stereo.

Sleeping up to eight guests across four bedrooms, Nelson's Lookout offers two modern bathrooms and full laundry facilities for a comfortable family stay.

If you're bringing the boat, you'll love the ample boat parking available here at Nelson's Lookout. Both boat and car parking is free. When it comes time to head out for a day on the water, there's a jetty and boat ramp just down the road; no need to go all the way into town! You'll also have access to the private beach in front of the house; a great way for quick passenger access if you need it.

Our Russel stay
Beautiful views in a spacious home. Bathrooms are inadequate for the size home and the stairs without rails/balustrades at the entrance are quite dangerous when trying to get to the only bathroom in the house at night.Window nets needed at Mosquitoes a problem
