Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Smiths Lake

What an amazing few days at Fish Cakes. Loved every minute and will definitely be back!

Our second stay at fabulous Seal way and we had the best time. Lucked out with some fine weather after all the heavy rain and even did some stargazing on the first night around the outdoor fire pit. The only bad thing about this house is that you have to leave !!!! We will be back for sure Thanks so much

We loved our stay at your beautiful home - so eclectic, gorgeous gardens, so relaxing with the wrap around verandah and day beds, and the magic bush track down to the beach. The kitchen was fully equipped, and everything so thoughtfully presented … a relaxing home away from home! Our little dog Cliffy absolutely loved his time there too … lots to explore in the fully fenced garden, and he loved his daily beach adventures. Thank you Evelyn & Kerry for making our stay so special. We will definitely be back and stay longer next time.

We had a fantastic stay at Alex’s place! The space was exactly as described—super clean, well maintained, and thoughtfully set up. Everything was incredibly functional, from the layout to the amenities, which made the stay really comfortable and convenient. You can tell Alex puts care into making sure guests have a great experience. Highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a hassle-free and enjoyable trip!

It is an absolute fantastic place. Very peaceful with great views. Feels like heaven on earth. The inside of the house is very clean, spacious and has everything that you would need. Bev is a very nice and friendly host and it was an absolute delight talking to her. My husband and I and also our two dogs loved it so much that we will definitely come back here whenever we can. It was one of the best places that we have been to. From the check in until it was time to leave everything was perfect. We would highly recommend this beautiful place to anyone. I guess the the only part that we didn't like was leaving 😞. Many thanks Bev until next time 😊

Lovely place perfect for our stay. we were visiting family in the area. The house had everything we needed amd was very central. Robert was a flexible responsive host whom I would highly recomend the location is superb and the views stunning....Maybe don't go in the middle of a severe flood warning if you really want to appreciate the magnificicent views......Robert even offered his local knolwledge on alternate routes due to the weather. All in all a great experience except for the rain, but I am from England so it was like home from home for me... :-)

We had a lovely stay at Blueys' Beach Shack! The location is absolutely perfect — just a short walk to beautiful Blueys Beach, and close to local shops and cafes. The house had a cozy, architectural feel and was very well-equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The outlook onto the tropical garden was really lovely as well. Communication with Cameron was easy and friendly, and we really appreciated the thoughtful touches around the house, as well as the proactiveness in ensuring we had a good stay. We had a great time and would definitely love to come back!

This home is my first of three bookings here. A lovely home for a family; either weekend away to beautiful Dungog, or a longer stay while you find your feet, or explore this beautiful part of NSW.

Beautiful big apartment. Reminded me a bit of an old Queenslander with mod cons. Lots of charm. Wish we could of stayed longer.

Spotless clean, very well furnished and with an incredible view. Our family loved the stay for 3 nights over Easter. Beautiful trails right in front of the house with multiple rock pools to go for a quick dip or snorkeling. I would definitely come back here if I'm planning to go to Port Stephens. 100% worth the listing price.

The lake cabin is such a peaceful and beautiful place to stay, with direct access to a lovely walking trail. Be aware there will be no service getting there so keep an eye out for the sign, and be ready to dodge a LOT of potholes on the roads. We had a lovely stay, Phillippa was very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable about the area Thank you!

Loved the space! Great facilities in the building, rooftop and pool was a great bonus for our stay!

A beautiful place to stay. Just gorgeous. And yet still very well set up for children. I wish the pool had been a little warmer. But apart from that we loved our stay.

The apartment was absolutely stunning. Parking was easy, check in was straight forward and restaurants are a short walking distance away. Would definately reccommend if anyone is traveling nearby. The furniture was clean, kitchen well equiped and bathrooms are clean. The wifi was a bit slow however this is to be expected in anywhere that's a regional area. Douglas, the host was also very responsive and friendly too!

We loved the Bond House apartment. Despite the unusual access across the park it was well worth it once inside. Eclectic stylishly furnished spacious apartment well located for East Newcastle. A well stocked larder and great laundry space if you need it. Bathrooms very modern with heated towel rails and big fluffy towels! Beds very comfy too

Very happy with our stay at Blueys Beach. Dean was very communicative and we felt we could reach out to him if there were any concerns. We would definitely like to return for another visit.
