Perfect location to get away and relax. Bushland on one side of the house and a quiet neighbourhood made it feel very private and peaceful. Indoors was spacious with different living areas for the family to spread out when they wanted to do their own thing. The balcony was large and the perfect place to enjoy dinner overlooking the bay, read or play pool on the full sized pool table. If you are looking for more action, you can drive to Nelson Bay or Newcastle but they are 40mins or more from North Arm Cove. Locally you can swim at the bay (which was within walking distance) or play tennis at the local community centre (a 2 minute drive) which also has a basketball hoop. We would definitely stay here again.
