Shrouded by a lush littoral forest and neatly separated from the sea by Sandbar Beach, this is a family favourite for those eager to enjoy a spot of water-skiing, boating, paddling or windsurfing (the open lake waters making for a windsurfer’s dream!). With an impressive catchment area spanning 32 square kilometres and waterways of 11 square kilometres you can enjoy all the benefits of this unique, tucked-away calm waterway. However, should you feel a pull for the waves, the picturesque Cellito Beach can be accessed via a boardwalk at the northern end of Sandbar Beach. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Parking and transport - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - On a lake ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Motor boating nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100040000/100038200/100038197/f3fb3e7b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Montezuma - flat walk to Elizabeth Beach + Air Con Elizabeth Beach - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly - Air-conditioning 8.0 Very good 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-13&endDate=2026-01-14&selected=100038197&PinnedHotelID=100038197&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/90000000/89790000/89787000/89786903/334ada77.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Tarbuck Cabin relax and enjoy a fuse free holiday Tarbuck Bay - Washing machine - Pet-friendly - Outdoor space - Parking available 7.0 Good 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-13&endDate=2026-01-14&selected=89786903&PinnedHotelID=89786903&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Children’s area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90750000/90741000/90740982/6544bdd9.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Smiths Tree House @ Smiths Lake Smiths Lake - Washing machine - Dryer - Air-conditioning - Outdoor space [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-13&endDate=2026-01-14&selected=90740982&PinnedHotelID=90740982&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109740000/109736900/109736884/w1897h1080x23y0-27e24510.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sunset Palms - Escape to our delightful holiday home nestled in the heart of Smiths Lake, Smiths Lake - Washing machine - Outdoor space - Barbecue grill - Fireplace [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-13&endDate=2026-01-14&selected=109736884&PinnedHotelID=109736884&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/73000000/72120000/72117900/72117888/00028e51.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### From the Treetops to the Lakeside in seconds!
