Just what we needed. Would probably be busy warmer months, but lovely and peaceful mid-winter.

By The Lake Cottage

Margaret - 20th March 2023

Once again we enjoyed our two week vacation in By The Lake Cottage. The cottage is very well appointed and we were excited to find an air fryer had been added to the appliances. Location is so convenient to creek,beach and shops.

Another grat stay by the lake

Liz - 22nd June 2021

We love staying at By the Lake at Crescent Head - it is a simple cottage but has everything that we need - the sun streams in all day and there is a lovely sunny grassed area out the back where we can lounge around when we are not catching waves or paddling in the creek.

Little gem

Kathy - 14th December 2020

We have been coming to crescent for many years with a group of families. The house is in a dead-end street backing onto the creek. The street has units and houses for rent so we are all together.By the cottage is our favorite. With the back of the house facing a reserve and views down the creek. Such a great spot to relax and play cards with our friends. It was a sleepy little beach side hideaway, but over the years it has become very popular.

Stay at By The Lake Crescent Head

Garry - 5th August 2020

This is the 1st time I have stayed in a property leased by Crescent Head Real Estate. I normally stay at the caravan park in the cabins. As for the future that is the end of the caravan park and I will be getting a property through the same agent for next trip. All my expectations were met and interesting when discussing matters the agent s remember things. Most unlike most agents. So I would have no hesitation in recommending this agency. Most unlike me.

comfortable cottage in a great position

Liz - 4th August 2020

We had a great week in By the lake cottage, an easy walk to shops, coffee and the beach, the house is super neat and tiday and very comfortable, it was the middle of winter and we did take our own heater which is a good idea, but they provided alot of extra blankets and we were very comfortable
