Cottage vacation rentals in Great Lakes Council

Maurie’s place is so beautiful! Had an amazing time and the location/house is perfect! Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!

lovely little place clean and well maintained in a quiet area. They left bacon and eggs and a few other goodies for us to enjoy which was very much appreciated. Spa was lovely and clean unfortunately we didn't get a chance to use it. Highly recommend for staying and exploring the Hunter Valley.

Kerry was a lovely host from booking to check out. The house was very clean with plenty of towels & blankets. Outside decking area is very private. Plenty of firewood was provided. Thank you Kerry for an amazing stay!

We are so happy we have found this beautiful gem. We will come back for sure! Our arrival was a bit stressful as we were trying to arrive quickly before the roads were closed (due to floods) and Jill helped us along the way even organizing a really early check in! We were also lucky to stay another night as the roads were still closed or just newly opened. The place is beautiful in the rain and bathed in the sunshine. We saw so many birds and loved saying hi to the chickens everyday. It is cosy, well furnished and extremely comfortable! It really feels like home! We will recommend it to friends and family when they come to this part of the world!

Had an amazing stay, the hot tub was lovely and the place was nice and clean! We even saw a little bush possum after the sun went down 🙂

My partner and I stayed in Cadair Cottage 1 and we really really enjoyed our short time here. We were only here for a couple of nights but would have loved to extend our trip. There is so much to like about this place. Firstly, the surroundings are just absolutely beautiful - you are in nature and if you’re coming from a city landscape you’ll switch off so quickly. The cottage itself was spotless and had such a homely feel. All of the amenities you’d need with a fireplace, stove top, wifi, tv with foxtel and streaming - beautiful bedrooms and comfortable linen. The hot tub is also so nice to relax in and watch the sun come down. The yard (which is fully fenced) offers an expansive play area for your furry friends and our girl Peppa absolutely loved her time here too. She had so much fun. You are visited by neighbouring sheep and cows and it’s truly magical to watch them graze and trail by. Thank you, Simone - we can’t wait to return to this beautiful property again.

My partner and I absolutely loved our weekend at Jemma’s place - we spent the afternoon relaxing in the outdoor bath tubs and taking in the beautiful view before enjoying dinner by the fire pit in the evening. The house is gorgeous - beautifully decorated, comfortable and spotless. Jemma included so many thoughtful touches that made our stay even more special - including an amazing welcome hamper, a bath bomb and bubble bath, lovely soaps, candles, plush blankets and more. It felt like a very luxurious and relaxing sanctuary. And Jemma was lovely to deal with too, a very kind and generous host. We’ll definitely be back!

What an amazing experience we had with our little ones, from waking up to feeding the horses, playing on the swing set to walking around the property. Eloise was so helpful and communicated all information that we needed. Its a perfect secluded home for getting away with the family.

Our family had a wonderful stay at Berry House. Glenn was a top host, very friendly and charming. He was on top of all communications and always had the right answer. The house was great. The indoor fire was v enjoyable and everything we needed was there. Generous supply of coffee pods, firewood kept us v comfortable. The sauna was much enjoyed though the pool was too cold.. I’m sure it would be a treat in summer. The dogs, Willow and Esther, were one of the highlights for our two boys. They had a great time. The highlight for the adults was the huge outdoor fire pit. Very special for a pre and post dinner chat.

Our stay at Tallowood cottage was lovely. The cottage was better than pictured. The bed in the main bedroom was probably the best bed we have slept in for an Airbnb. The house was roomy and comfortable. Unfortunately we stayed during an East Coast low and the backyard turned into a swimming pool so it was difficult for our dog to use. We just used the front yard instead. So great to have a dog friendly comfortable property so close to a dog beach. Susan and her team were extremely responsive to our communications and let us extend our stay until the road home had reopened after the floods a bit further south. Would definitely come back and stay again!

The Church was a gorgeous place to spend a long weekend. Lovely surroundings and great facilities.

Amazing stay at this beautiful home and the host was super responsive. The cute cows walking around was a bonus. Would love come back here again ❤️

Great house to stay in! Very spacious and close to the beach/shops and a short drive from other surrounding beaches and shops. Amazing price for what you get as well. Lovely back yard and easy to get in to.

Great cottage and location. It was clean and we felt very comfortable whilst there. It was very peaceful and Tanya’s instructions were very clear and helpful!

Once again we had a fabulous short stay at our favourite Newcastle Airbnb, Salty Dog Cottage, only 4 days this time but wish we had longer. Cute cottage, comfy beds, super clean and close to everything we needed for our stay. Next door to the fabulous Gunyah Hotel where we enjoyed a couple of yummy lunches. Although there was a bit of reveller noise late on the Saturday night, the pub was a definite plus. We will definitely be back. Thank you Joanne and Mike.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Airbnb! From the moment I arrived, the host was incredibly welcoming and made sure I had everything I needed. They went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable, offering great recommendations for local spots and checking in to make sure all was well. The property itself was stunning! It was beautifully decorated, clean, and had all the amenities I could have asked for. The space was both cosy and stylish, with plenty of room to relax and unwind. It truly felt like a home away from home. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with a fantastic host and a lovely property. Will definitely return!

We had a lovely stay at Kent and Jacinta’s! There were 5 of us and we found it a great sized place so we could all get our space. The couple in the third bedroom found the bed a bit uncomfortable but the other 2 were great and the couch felt like a cloud! It was a really well equipped kitchen and was easy to cook dinner in. Unfortunately the previous guests didn’t clean the pots and pans so we had to do that before cooking. We loved the fire pit and outdoor area. Kent and Jacinta were brilliant hosts and very prompt with their messaging. Would definitely recommend staying!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! So peaceful, quiet, full of wildlife and the perfect relaxing stay! Can’t wait to go back for a longer stay ☺️

Kym's place is exactly as described. She has chosen very thoughtful furnishings and styling choices. She is also very responsive and the check in process was very smooth.

Very good house and best host ever had meet

Lovely place to stay. Good communication. Would highly recommend!

The stay was great. Joy and Lynelle were wonderful hosts. Amazing view, the north facing balcony let’s you soak in the sunshine all day long,definitely recommend for those looking for a weekend getaway in Central Coast area!

Had a lovely stay. Heather is very well organised and precise. Fire place was alight when we arrived late. Recommended staying here anytime.

Lovely retreat from the city. Very peaceful location, but only a short drive from a range of activities and restaurants etc. house was in good condition and hosts very accommodating.
