Spending a day in Lake Macquarie is great. But staying the night? Even better. Wake up in time to catch the sunrise from the inside the ancient sea caves at Caves Beach, or watch as the sun slowly makes its way across the sky; reflecting glowing dawn colours off the glassy surface of the lake.

There’s plenty of different options to suit all budgets. Hotels, motels and resorts make for an easy escape, and range from budget-friendly through to stylish luxury. You can live as the locals do in your very own holiday house, or stay in a quaint waterfront cottage or boatshed unique to the area.

If you’re after a natural escape, camp by the lake in one of our waterfront holiday parks, or up in the mountains amongst the pines.
