Highland on the Lake An Idyllic Poolside Oasis

Experience tranquil, waterfront living on the banks of Lake Macquarie. Set across two levels with four bathrooms, this luxury, Hampton's style home offers light-filled open living flowing out to two oversized decks where you can soak up stunning sunsets across the lake while dining alfresco. Spend your days lazing by the private pool in between games of ping pong and cosy up with a movie in the home theatre come evening. Cams Wharf's waterfront eateries are just a five-minute drive away.
Spacious, contemporary and newly renovated, you'll never want to leave this lakefront oasis that feels like a home-away-from-home. Enjoy the easygoing, coastal lifestyle, starting your morning with a leisurely 10-minute stroll for coffee at local favourite, Nords Trading Post, before returning home to soak up the sunshine poolside, complete with sun loungers and an umbrella for shade.

Come together upstairs in light-filled open plan living which flows through to the front deck, comfortably furnished to enjoy an evening drink while overlooking Lake Macquarie. The gourmet kitchen and chic dining area have everything needed to cook and savour meals at home, including a 10-seater table, additional rattan stools at the breakfast bar and a servery through to a second deck, where you'll find another 10-person table that allows for seamless indoor-outdoor dining. From here you can access the grassy backyard and sparkling private pool. Dual living areas provide ample space to unwind. Settle in for casual conversation while enjoying uninterrupted views in the stylish seating area off the kitchen or kick back in the upstairs TV room, equipped with Netflix, pay TV and a gaming console. Central heating and cooling, plus ceiling fans throughout keep temperatures comfortable year-round.

You'll find the stylish primary suite upstairs, offering a king-size bed, walk-in robe and access to the front balcony, plus an ensuite with dual shower heads. Two other bedrooms can be found on this level, one offering a queen bed and the other set with a king bed, with the option of two king singles upon request. These bedrooms share the main bathroom on this level, with two sinks, a glass walk-in shower and a freestanding bath.

Downstairs is self-contained, offering a separate kitchenette and home theatre with a generous couch, beanbags and oversized TV—perfect for cosy movie nights at home with the family. A second suite can be found on this level, set with a queen bed and connected to an ultra-modern ensuite. The fifth bedroom features another king bed, which can be split into king singles upon request, while the main bathroom on this level allows you to freshen up without having to head upstairs.

In-unit laundry on both levels, Wi-Fi throughout and ample parking on the driveway add to your everyday convenience. Travelling with an infant? A high chair and cot can be provided upon request.
Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo.
