Vacation rentals with lake access in South Coast

Everything about this accomodation was 5 stars. Great communication from the host Ben. The house was a great place to entertain and was equipped with everything we needed. Very comfortable and clean and great location. Highly recommended

The Glasshouse is a amazing place to getaway and have peace and quiet. 45 minutes from Sydney. 10 minutes by boat to the marina for morning coffee. I have stayed all round the World in Air BnB's and George is the best host ever, Patrick and Liam are your contacts on the river and live locally, nothing is ever a problem. Highly recommended.

This is a one off 60's style place . We felt at really home and loved it all . It is a place which is full of books, beautiful pictures , and real touches of really fine design. Okay, here and there it shows its age BUT it is a home which has been preserved and which shows real ( rather than Faux ) class. Lovely spaces and real retro ... generous spaces subdued but elegant lighting and the odd bit of quirk . It reeks of happy family times in beautiful Merimbula. We loved it and will be back .

We had a wonderful stay that far exceeded our expectations. The house was incredibly spacious, with more than enough room for our family, and the bonus of having two kitchens made everything so much easier when catering for a big group. The outdoor play area was a huge hit with the kids – plenty of space for them to run around and stay entertained. The fire pit was another highlight, perfect for relaxing in the cool evening and enjoying quality time together. One night simply wasn’t enough—we’ll definitely be back for a longer stay next time. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a family-friendly, comfortable, and well-equipped getaway!

Leanne’s place completely exceeded our expectations — it truly blew us away. The property is beautifully designed, spacious, and thoughtfully equipped with everything you might need. All the amenities and appliances worked perfectly, though having a laundry dryer would’ve made it even more convenient. But the real showstopper is the lake — it felt like our own private, attached sanctuary. Whether you're just gazing at it or taking a refreshing dip, it adds an incredible, peaceful touch to the entire experience. The extra snacks and food items provided were such a thoughtful gesture — a cherry on top of an already perfect stay. And yes, it even has a personal lemon tree! Hands down, one of the best stays I’ve had. Can’t recommend it enough.

Eva was a fantastic host who was very contactable, accommodating and SkyView villa had everything we needed for a great long weekend stay. We definitely would love to come back and make the most of the opportunities in the area when it is warmer too!

Thank you Mandy for hosting us! The house is warm and cosy, even it's cold outside, beds are very comfy. we love the wood 🔥 fire place in the house. Kitchen is full of items that is helpful for cooking. We will come back and stay in this cottage and strongly recommend it

Comfortable and well equipped home amongst the trees. Peaceful and plenty of wildlife with visits from parrots and lorikeets. Kitchen is very well appointed. Beds are comfortable, and a 10-15 minute walk to the beach. There's a vintage sound system installed but a couple of the remotes are missing so I recommend packing a stereo input cable if you want to listen to anything other than the radio. The interiors could use a little TLC and some refreshing but these are very minor quibbles. We had a relaxing and comfortable time at Fiona's place and exploring the coast and beaches.

The place was beautiful. The bed was big and cozy. The kitchen and fridge stocked for necessities which helped with the morning coffee crave. It was lovely that there were snacks too as we haven’t gone to the shops when we arrived. Overall amazing place. Will definitely be back. Tony was also very accomodating with clear instructions ☺️

Such a lovely Airbnb in a beautiful location. Cheryl is so thoughtful!

Very nice stay & Arlene great host who leaves you to it after local recommendations. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect location and easy to get to everything. Walks and a swim at Bar Beach every morning was a great way to start the day. Stunning views of the Lake. Leonie was a great host and made our first AirBnb experience A1. Great communication right from the start. We will definitely be back. Thanks again Leonie.

Beautiful location with amazing view. The apartment was very clean and close to everything. Noel and Sally always responded on time. I highly recommend this apartment and will definitely be booking it again

cosy apartment with a gorgeous view, the place is super comfortable. amazing bed! would stay again

Wonderful and relaxing stay. Close to some nice beaches and towns with good hospitality venues. Would absolutely return.

Loved the location, Andrea’s communication was excellent. Perfect set up for family of 4 with 2 older teenagers. Cafe downstairs for breakfast, what’s not to like. Their only complaint was wifi speed! Thank you!

We received such a warm welcome from Helen and Paul and they were so helpful. The place is pristine with lots of thoughtful touches to make it a great stay. Loved the gas fire, beautiful garden and outside space.

What a beautiful and relaxing three days we had staying at the Cottage in Wildes Meadow. Your place was just perfect and unique. The cottage was gorgeous and had everything we needed. The accommodation felt like a home away from home, it was incredibly cozy and clean. The highlight was relaxing by the fire which we enjoyed every night. Truly such a relaxing stay and we can't wait to come back!

We had a beautiful weekend away at Cox’s cottage. It was so quiet and the views, especially at sunset, were unreal. It was a great escape from the city to unwind for a few days! The cottage itself is so charming and Jeremy and Annette were very responsive.

What an amazing place. The cottage was clean and incredibly comfortable. Tobi's communication was excellent & we really enjoyed the delicious home baked biscuits left for us. The house backs onto the lake and we enjoyed the basin walk alongside the lake. The house is private, quiet and peaceful. We even had the pleasure of waking up to a beautiful mob of kangaroos resting on the back lawn. We enjoyed our breakfast with them. They weren't phased by us at all. We can't wait to return for another peaceful getaway.

Absolutely loved Brendan’s place. It’s just as cosy and stunning as the photos and it’s right on the lake. An absolute gem of a place and the check in instructions were super easy to follow even in the dark at night in the rain!

Had the best time at Canyonleigh. Tranquil location, gorgeous animals and access to a river. The place itself was very well equipped, clean and tidy. The best part about the entire stay however was Mel. She was extremely responsive and available for all of our queries. She offered a farm experience to us in the morning. When we needed honey, cinnamon and extra towels she was quick to provide. Furthermore we needed a ride into Bowral and she not only offered to give us one, but gave as quite an informed and impassioned tour of the area. We had the best time and would love to revisit again. Our cup feels very full now and I am really grateful!

We had a lovely experience staying at Linda’s cottage. The location is beautiful and true to the pictures and description provided by Linda. Linda was also a great host and communicated with us promptly and provided us with clear instructions and recommendations for our stay. The cottage was very cosy with all the amenities we could need for a short stay and and we felt comfortable right away. We would definitely recommend staying here and would be happy to stay again in the future.

My Partner and I enjoyed a wonderful celebratory extended family long weekend. Where Sarah’s coastal cottage provided us with a peaceful ,warm ,charming and welcoming well appointed haven…..we could have easily stayed for the rest of the week.
