Vacation rentals with lake access in Raleigh

I had the pleasure of staying at Heather home for over 3 months while our home was being renovated under an insurance claim. Heather is extremely kind and was wonderful in accomadating our booking extensions each time, going above and beyond, to ensure we didn't have to move on until we could move home. Heather's home is beautiful and luxuriously styled, with all the modern amenities to ensure a comfortable stay, the surroundings were very peaceful with direct access to the river in your back yard, I highly recommend this property and host. I hope to stay here again in the future. Heather is a most generous, genuine and lovely woman, and an absolute pleasure to meet.

Absolutely stunning house and location. Denielle went above and beyond to help clear some issues with air bnb and resolved the issue herself. We will definitely be returning to this house, close to the beach and when you step out onto the back verandah it feels like you are completely immersed in nature. The neighbours were really friendly too. My only negative is that we didn’t stay longer. Could not recommend this property and host enough, 5 stars isn’t enough!

A warm and inviting space to relax and enjoy quality family time. We loved gathering around the fire, playing games with our kids, and taking in the stunning views of the Bellinger River.

Steve was great and very responsive with any queries we had awsome location, super quiet and the odd trains are definitely not anything to keep you awake plenty of local close by facilities or a short trip to Coffs thanks Steve

This house is really great even if quite basic. There aren’t many nice little “touches” as such, but it more than makes up for that with excellent location so close to the beach, heaps of space across 4 bedrooms, good sized kitchen and 2 lounge rooms with loads of space. Was super clean. Great value for money. I would stay here again.

We had such a wonderful time at Jody and Dan’s place! The converted church is stunning. The gardens were lush, the surroundings peaceful and being right by the river made it feel like a true escape. Everything was spotless and thoughtfully set up for guests. Jody was incredibly welcoming and communication was easy. We especially loved kayaking on the river and relaxing by the fire pit under the stars. Would 100% recommend and can’t wait to come back for another stay!

Our family had a wonderful time at Stuart’s place and would happily come back again. Stuart was very helpful, checking was easy and the house itself was perfect for adults and kids alike. Close to amenities and the beach (5 min walk).

We only stayed for one night. Perfectly right for it. Dogs were very cute but did not bother us at all. The owner is super responsive. Very quiet, green and beautiful property.

Great little spot for our overnight trip up the coast! Amazing garden and lots of living space. Thanks!

Enjoyed our stay here. The home was clean and tidy with all the things you need for a comfortable stay. Location was great, close to the beach and a great walking pathway for kids to ride their scooters opposite the townhouse. The bowling club was a great place to eat which was walking distance. The pool was nice and warm and perfect for cooling off. I would recommend staying here. Nikki was responsive and gave clear instructions.

A great place to stay with kids. Jan’s place was the perfect location for our family of 5. Easy access to cafes, the beach, playground and local shops. A wonderful balcony to watch the morning sunrise on the beach too. Fully equipped kitchen with all necessities. Easy access with a key lockbox.

Great place, great facilities and Communication.

Great accommodation and host. Thoroughly recommend.

Excellent stay. Beautiful location. The water near by was absolutely beautiful.

It was a very nice secluded place. We had asked if we could check in early and they kindly let us. The place was spotless and very inviting.

Fantastic spot to drop & fully relax in! All the finishing touches were beautiful, we found a fully stocked quality kitchen to cook in, fluffy towels plus quality furnishings all made it extra cozy & lux feeling! The high ceilings, open windows looking out onto the private deck space plus massive size dining kitchen & lounge area felt extra warm, welcoming & relaxed… the hot tub is private & easily a big feature for relax. It’s great value for money also! The only thing I wished was not there ( or so high at least ) is the hedge that blocks the views of the tranquil pond, other than that we really could not fault it at all! Well done Bec, Mark & Adele - will definitely return 👏😃

The Pelican Cottage was really nice and also very clean. We enjoyed our two nights to explore Urunga and relax with that amazing view and tranquillity. We would definitely stay there again.

We felt like home away from home 🙌 Fabulous little house lots of character lovely place to stay , definitely rate it high cant wait to return 💯

We had the most peaceful and relaxing stay at this charming cottage! The mountain views were absolutely stunning, and there was a beautiful swimming hole nearby to cool off in. We loved when the owners’ two friendly dogs came by for a quick ”hello” in the morning, which was so sweet. Overall, the cottage was the perfect place unwind and reconnect with nature. Highly recommend

What a lovely place, beautiful surrounds. It’s a shame it was so wet we would have loved to check out the gardens etc as they looked gorgeous. First time at Emerald Beach and it didn’t disappoint. The hosts recommendations on eating out didn’t disappoint either. Overall fabulous ! Extra touches by the hosts were lovely also. Thank you for a great stay!
