Vacation rentals with lake access in Southern Tablelands

When in Canberra, Helen’s is a lovely home away from home, beautifully decorated with happy plants, lovely sunroom, and excellent in communication during stays!

I highly recommend this property as it was stunning. My husband and I went away for two nights for a wedding and from the moment we walked into the door we felt so calm and both in awe at how beautiful the property was. So much thought has gone into this beautiful home and I think it’s one of our favourite spots we have stayed to date. The outside bath was our favourite along with the fireplace to help us relax. The host was great and check in was super easy. We could not fault one thing and we cannot to book again for a weekend reset. The perfect location for anyone wanting to slow down. We stayed as a couple but this place would be amazing to go with two other couples, a family or friends! Location was also great and walking distance into town.

This house is beautiful and exactly as pictured. Lynne and Dennis were very helpful and easy to communicate with. We stayed during some not great weather but that no issue at all and it was quite lovely to sit outside with a drink and BBQ and watch the storm and Birds. The kids enjoyed using the kayaks and fishing.

What a lovely property. Great views and easy access to the waterfront area to go for walks and enjoy being outside. The description and photos were so accurate to the property. Lots of board games to keep us busy during the periods of heavy rain we encountered. Easy access to the various attractions that are in the surrounding areas.

Lovely villa with amazing views in an excellent and extremely peaceful location. We enjoyed seeing dozens of kangaroos and multiple wombats. The villa was perfect for our group of 4 adults and 2 children - plenty of space, lovely and warm with multiple aircon units, full kitchen for cooking. Eva is an excellent host - so proactive and helpful. Thankyou for a wonderful weekend away! Highly recommended and would love to come back.

Such a lovely space, especially the lovely deck with such beautiful birdlife ! Thoughtful touches eg. water filter jug, oil vaporiser and live indoor plants….felt more like staying at a friend’s home. Very personal touches.

William is a great host. Stayed with him before. Very approachable. Very thoughtful. Always everything you need. William in particular equips his places excellently. Always milk eggs cooking oil etc so you don’t have to go shopping immediately.

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.

Great location and amazing view at sunrise and sunset. Very friendly hosts The place felt very homey and the beds were super comfy Thanks!

all good ,easy to walk to wharf area for dinner,all things worked in apartment, easy stay that we had for 3 nights

This is a comfortable modern apartment in a very good position. We enjoyed our 4 week stay but slightly marred by some road , mainly from vehicles looking for parking spaces.

Great unit in a nice location, the owner always happy to accommodate our requests

Midian is a terrific host - either she or her partner, Ed, responded promptly when we had requests or questions. Her apartment is large, light, modern, nicely furnished in an uncluttered way, and the bed is very comfortable. The apartment is on the 5th floor and the view is nice. It was very useful to have a washer and dryer in the apartment. The amenities of the complex - gym and 25m lap pool - are convenient and excellent. The area is very safe.

We loved our stay in Ivy and Kevin’s apartment. It was also lovely that we could bring our dog. The apartment was clean and well appointed. Ivy and Kevin were lovely to deal with if you have any questions while you are staying.

Beautifuly appointed apartment in a great location. Excellent host and would highly recommend.

Great location for convenience to restaurants and cafes. Relaxed comfortable space with everything we needed.

A lovely private cottage in the most beautiful tranquil setting. Kitchen has everything for a lovely roast dinner in front of the open fire. We absolutely loved our stay!

beautiful accommodation both in scenery and the actual home absolutely perfect our second time Tim is a hospitable host very helpful but once your there its very private we love it!!!

Great stay, no complications and beautiful views. The place is lovely and separated enough from the house that it feels like its own little home. Aaron made the check in and check out super easy and was very accommodating with any of our needs - but thanks to the ease of the stay we didn’t need to reach out at all! Lola, their puppy, was also a lovely morning surprise when she would greet us at the door. 100% would recommend to anyone!

Excellent experience and very peaceful. Lisa went above and beyond over my expectations. Left homemade baked treats for me on the kitchen table. offered to change linens after having to extend my stay. Kitchen was stocked with essentials like coffee, salt, pepper, aluminum foil, etc. Approved my request to extend my stay promptly. If you spend a lot of time in cities I encourage you to step outside at night and take in the incredible view of the stars and sky. PS be very careful driving towards Tumbarumba especially after dark the animals are out and everywhere however it is a nice little drive when you hit the canyon!

Brendan’s shack is as beautiful and peaceful as all the other reviews describe it. The garden is particularly stunning with an amazing collection of Banksias. We also went kayaking multiple times in the river and mountain biking in Termil Forest over the highway. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to be back soon.

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!

The caretakers and Ken were extremely helpful and easy to communicate with. They were very accomodating to my family and my small children. Upon arrival the caretakers had the fire going to the house was very warm and inviting which was an amazing welcome. The guide provided to us upon booking was filled with clear instructions and things to do around the area and we will absolutely be back to stay when we have more of a chance to enjoy those amenities - we got to explore the property a little bit but running around organising wedding things took up majority of our time this trip. We will absolutely be back and are already planning our next trip to the OutPost!!

A beautifully appointed place a stones throw from the beach! Great for four adults and two kids for our Easter beach trip. Nicky and Anita were very helpful and communicative hosts. Would 10/10 recommend!
