Fletcher House Sleeps 18 Location Views

We had an awesome stay and found the house to more than meet our expectations. Great location and well serviced. So good we have booked it again for next year.

We had a fabulous stay at Fletcher House and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The location is unbeatable — stunning lake views, an easy walk to both the lake and town and a huge reserve right across the road that the kids absolutely loved for races, duck‑duck‑goose and endless games of bat down. The kitchen was well equipped with quality gear, including plastic plates and cups for the kids and having two fridges was incredibly handy for our group of five families. It was a treat to stay somewhere that actually has sharp knives. The bathroom amenities were lovely and the shower pressure was awesome. We accidentally went to the front of the house where the host Michael lives but he kindly directed us to the correct entrance at the back and even gave us a tour. Michael was very friendly and helped us out with a couple of mishaps during our stay, which we really appreciated.

Unfortunately, there were a few disappointments for us. When we booked earlier this year, the listing advertised 7 bedrooms, a games room, 2 living areas and bathtubs (ideal for bathing the babies) and that configuration perfectly suited our group of 19. On arrival, we discovered the property had been renovated and now has only 5 bedrooms, a single living area with a pull‑down double bed and no bathtub or games room. The renovations also appeared incomplete. We had to pick up screws and nails from the driveway before we could park and some of the tacks on the stairs weren’t secured properly, which caused a few minor injuries. There was masking tape in several places where work hadn’t been finished. Although the two downstairs rooms sleep 12 people, there’s no toilet on that level, which made things quite inconvenient. With so many of us, we had a lot of washing, so an indoor drying rack would have been really helpful alongside the outdoor line. A couple of removable baby gates for the stairs would also have been handy on the main floor.
