A beautiful weekend away at the FAM Newcastles place Catalina Bay in Fishing Point! The entire house was spotless and the linens and towels being supplied was so convenient. Everyone enjoyed the jetty and the beautiful view from the boathouse, and the generosity of the FAM for providing kayaks and lifejackets really elevated the stay. Absolutely loved it 10/10!!

We had a long weekend at The Fam and the stay was excellent. We were a large extended family with lots of young children aged 1-7 and the house is very well equipped for our purposes, the bedrooms were a good size, there was a multiple bathrooms and the kitchen was a good size and well equipped. The best part of the stay was the boat house which contained kayaks. It was was the perfect way to entertain adults as we brought wine and beers down in the evening and the kids enjoyed the kayaks throughout the day with the water being very calm. Would 100% recommend.

Beautiful home set right on the shore of Lake Macquarie. The house is fully furnished with plenty of kayaks and life vests to explore the wonderful lake with. We really enjoyed our stay there on the weekend and the late check out till 3pm makes a high difference. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to take a mini break.
