Some places are simply somewhere to stay. Lake David is somewhere you experience.

Hidden away on 44 private acres and surrounded by the tranquil waters of Lake Yarrunga and the dramatic escarpments of Kangaroo Valley, this extraordinary lakefront estate offers the kind of privacy, space and natural beauty that is increasingly hard to find.

Designed for bringing people together, Lake David comfortably accommodates up to 19 guests across eight beautifully appointed bedrooms and six bathrooms, making it an exceptional choice for extended families, groups of friends, milestone celebrations and corporate retreats.

Wake to mist rising over the lake and kangaroos grazing nearby. Spend slow mornings over coffee taking in the views, challenge the family to a game of tennis, cool off in the swimming pool or sink into the spa as the afternoon disappears into the surrounding mountains.

At the heart of Lake David is a spacious, beautifully designed home created for relaxed country living and effortless entertaining. Soaring ceilings, warm timber finishes and expansive windows frame the surrounding landscape, while generous living and dining areas allow large groups to spend time together without ever feeling crowded.

The fully equipped chef’s kitchen and large island make preparing meals together part of the experience, while multiple indoor and outdoor spaces provide plenty of choice for dining, relaxing and entertaining. And when everyone wants to do their own thing, there is more than enough room to spread out and find a quiet corner.

With eight bedrooms, six bathrooms and accommodation for up to 19 guests, Lake David is particularly special for larger groups who want to stay together without compromising on comfort. The generous bedroom configuration provides beautiful spaces to retreat to at the end of the day, with many rooms enjoying peaceful outlooks across the lake, escarpment and surrounding countryside.

You could easily spend your entire stay at Lake David without ever wanting to leave. Enjoy the private swimming pool and spa, play a match on the full-size tennis court, retreat to the games room or simply wander the expansive grounds and take in the extraordinary natural surroundings.

The property is home to an abundance of native wildlife, with kangaroos and wombats often making an appearance. Whether your perfect afternoon involves a competitive game of tennis, relaxing beside the pool, watching wildlife wander through the property or finding a quiet spot overlooking the water with a book and a glass of wine, Lake David gives everyone the space to holiday their own way.

As evening falls, gather together for drinks, fire up the BBQ or prepare dinner in the chef’s kitchen before settling in for the kind of long, relaxed meal that holidays were made for.

Lake David really comes into its own when it is filled with people you love. Family reunions, milestone birthdays, special celebrations, weekends with lifelong friends, multi-generational holidays and retreats - there is room for everyone to gather and enough space for everyone to retreat when they want a little quiet.

Approved intimate celebrations and gatherings may be considered by prior arrangement. Please contact us before booking to discuss your plans, as additional conditions, fees and security bond requirements may apply.

Although Lake David feels wonderfully removed from everyday life, the historic village of Kangaroo Valley is within easy driving distance. Explore local cafés and restaurants, browse the village shops, visit nearby wineries, discover beautiful walking trails and waterfalls or spend the day exploring the NSW South Coast and Southern Highlands.

Then return to your own private piece of Kangaroo Valley.

Perhaps the most special thing about Lake David is something photographs can never quite capture - the quiet, the wildlife wandering through the property, the changing colours across the escarpment, the stillness of the lake in the morning and the feeling of having 44 private acres where your favourite people can simply be together.

Come for the house. You’ll remember the feeling.
