Rodney and Denise are excellent hosts. Their home is very welcoming ,charming and was perfect for our getaway. The views from the home both inside and out on the deck were gorgeous. There are multiple levels with little nooks to settle in with a good book with beautiful views. The home was full of character and had everything we needed. Heating was available both by ducted gas or you can have an open fire. Beautiful walks are available at the back door around the lake. We would definitely go back again . Thank you Rodney and Denise.

This house is a home away from home with the most wonderful views of the lake. We enjoyed sitting on the deck every day taking in the vista. Loved the direct access to the walking path. Rodney and Denise are always so helpful (this was our second stay), leaving tips for dog-friendly places to eat and to visit. The house is very well-equipped.

The property was perfectly located on Lake Daylesford with access to the walking track from a gate in the backyard. Lazy afternoons were spent reading on the deck overlooking the lake.Everything about this cottage was cozy. The hosts kindly made some suggestions of where to eat, drink and visit. This was the perfect mid-week break to relax and unwind after the Christmas festivities.

Three of us went to Daylesford for three nights. The home was cosy and beautifully clean and all three beds were wonderfully comfortable . We were warm as toast and everything we needed was there. Location with views of the lake was spectacular, and a coffee shop just down the hill. Thank you so much.

The property was perfectly located on Lake Daylesford with access to the walking track from a gate in the backyard. Lazy afternoons were spent reading on the deck overlooking the lake.Everything about this cottage was cozy. The hosts kindly made some suggestions of where to eat, drink and visit. This was the perfect mid-week break to relax and unwind after the Christmas festivities.

Rodney’s beautiful cottage was cosy and the perfect location for a long weekend away with family. We were right on the shores of Lake Daylesford, so even when we had rain on our first day we could curl up with books on the comfy sofas, wrap up in warm blankets, and read our books with views of the lake. The sunroom was perfect for reading and relaxing.The kitchen was wonderful, with everything I needed to cook meals for my family. We had a fire one evening, and each night we could pop the provided hot water bottles into our comfortable beds. Rodney has thought of everything you might need for a stay. The cottage feels so homey and welcoming.Communication with Rodney was excellent, and he reminded us to book restaurants ahead of time, and had so many recommendations for local places to eat and activities. We can’t wait to return in sunnier weather to enjoy the deck and garden!

The property was just right for our families get together. Everything was clean and everything was on hand for us to enjoy our time together.

The cottage was lovely. 2 living areas, 2 bathrooms and a very well equipped kitchen. The log fire was fabulous and already set by the lovely hosts. We just had to light it and keep adding wood. It also had a great heating system throughout the cottage. The location was also good - not too far from town at all. Would highly recommend the Lake Cottage

The sun room was wonderfully bright and sunny in the afternoons and the early morning views were exceptional. It was small dog friendly and everything was clean.
