Homelea at Cottage Point

7 REASONS TO STAY.... *Private, Exclusive, Waterfront Serenity *Explore the National Park in our Kayaks or SUP's *Fish from our Pontoon or Kayaks *Take a dip in our Tidal Sea Pool *Dine on the Veranda or by the Waters Edge *Hire a Local Boat & Go Fish, or Explore Nature *Foxtel, WiFi, DVD, or Mesmerising Nature PROPERTY DESCRIPTION Rare, secluded deep waterfront cottage surrounded by the picturesque Ku-Ring-Gai National Park. Step back in time to when life was simpler, when people had stimulating conversations instead of texting emojee’s, attended elaborate dinner party’s instead of going to a restaurant then played cards or board games like "Twister" till the wee hours of the morning. Romantic. Serene. Private. Tranquil. Right on the water. The perfect getaway. The house has a beautiful lawn by the water, shaded by a Jacaranda Tree with one of the last remaining private tidal sea pools on the Hawkesbury. Relax on the verandah with the water so close, you would think you are on a boat. Facing NorthWest, gaze across the deepest fjord in the Southern Hemisphere at the spectacular beauty that is the Ku-Ring-Gai National Park - thousands of hectares of untouched, virgin bushland. Lie on the pontoon on a summers night and count the shooting stars amongst the endless starry background, unhindered by civilisations lights. This classic late 60’s Cottage will not disappoint you, with its comfortable, relaxed layout and modern conveniences. Explore the clear waters of Cowan Creek in one of our Kayaks or SUP’s (stand up paddle board). Kayak 5-10mins to The Kiosk for a delectable breakfast or lunch. Watch boats go by knowing that you'll never get seasick at Homelea... Read a book from our library or play one of the many board games at hand. Watch Foxtel IQ or the Blue Ray DVD with a small library of DVD's (or bring some with you). Fish off the floating pontoon or one of our Kayaks and catch something fresh for dinner.
