Idle Lake House Floating Dockside Accommodation

A retro Californian inspired floating accommodation for guests who crave the unseen. Located on the absolute waterfront of the Gippsland Lakes, Victoria in Australia’s idyllic Far South East. Idle Lake House is a tribute to its relatively untouched location, with connection to its local environment, proximity to the locals and saltwater culture.

While it may look petite, Idle Lake House is surprisingly spacious, sleeping four in two queen-sized bedrooms. There’s a separate bathroom, shower room and a powder room and a large living room with an open-plan kitchen. The sense of space is reinforced by the use of curved walls and floor-to-ceiling glass framing the unbroken lake view. Sliding doors lead to a deck with outdoor seating, with a steel ladder providing entry into the cool green water of the lake should it get too hot, and boat mooring right out front.

Idle shares the vessel with a public floating sauna. The sauna has its own entry point and is not accessed from your accomodation.
