Enjoy the inground swimming pool or just take time to relax on the upstairs terrace which has a stunning view of the lake. On colder evenings, gather around the outdoor firepit and keep warm as the sun goes down. If you are a golfer, this property is 5 minutes by car to the Black Bull course at Silverwoods and a short driveto all the other wonderful golf courses.

Perfect!

Beautiful house in a great location. This is the fourth time we have stayed at The Amaroo by the Lake, which is the perfect accommodation for our group of four couples. With lovely weather for our stay both outdoor areas got lots of use with lovely views over the lake. And, when the temperature dropped at night, there was plenty of room for us all in the main living area. Thanks Marilyn, we will be back!

Fantastic Accomodation

The place was fabulous. It was clean, the pool was amazing and the ease to get to town was fantastic. Every utensil needed was available and the beds were very comfortable. With the location right next to the lake it was great to site out the back by the pool and enjoy all of the scenery at the back of the property.

We had a fantastic long weekend at Marilyn’s house. The location was fantastic, the kids loved the pool and easy access to lovely walls along the lake as well. The house was massive, far bigger than what you see in photos, it was clean and had everything we needed. Thank you.
