What a dream! Nothing short of perfect. The stunning lakeside views was the breathtaking backdrop to our magical day. David and the team went beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. The accomodation was spacious and elegant. The food was delicious. Highly recommend.

What a stunning location for an event or getaway. We had our wedding here and David’s place was perfect. David made the process so easy and went above and beyond to make the day special. The beautiful gardens, lake, accomodations and wedding setup were magical. Food, fishing, music, fire pit, good times, and even saw a turtle and a pod of dolphins! A weekend we will never forget. Thanks for having us David.

October 2023

We stayed at the property while attending a local wedding in the area. The luxury accommodation at The Moorings Lakehouse exceeded our expectations. Our bedroom had an outdoor bath on our balcony, a beautiful fireplace and a designer marble topped kitchen. We loved the lakefront sauna and swimming off the jetty. We’re planning on hosting our wedding at the venue in 2025!
