Fantastic property, the pictures understate the beauty of the place. Situated next to the lake, with excellent amenities and close to nearby shops, this is the best place to stay for a holiday in Lake Macquarie.
Karinyah is a beautiful house; marvellous location and views over the lake in quiet and peaceful surrounds. A great place for time out. Great walks and local coffee shop. Our family had a truly enjoyable time.

Our second stay at this beautiful location was overall quite good, but some lack of cleanliness was disappointing and not up to the standard of our previous stay. The property itself is ideal for a few relaxing days.
