Booked for an hour, stayed for two! My girlfriend and I had a great time during our visit: plenty of varied VR experiences and games to suit beginners and experienced users. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable making it easy to get started. 10/10 will be going again.

Coming from Sydney with little kids Lake Macquarie is a perfect place. Travel time for less than 2hours is a definitely a plus. Fishing, picnic area, local hotels, cafes, shopping centres, playgrounds. Countless beautiful spots, jetties and foreshore surrounding the beautiful lake. Definitely one our fave place in nsw. Plus beach on the other side- caves beach and blacksmith beach - awesome!

We were staying near Kurri Kurri and explored the Watagans National Park for two glorious days. As long as you stay on the main forest roads the gravel roads are quite suitable for two wheel drives. We did go off adventuring and found ourselves in a very steep slushy mud hole with little chance of turning around. Lucky we were in a 4x4. We visited the state forest lookouts as well as the ones in the Watagans. We really enjoyed Heaton Lookout with the views over the hinterland. I am in my mid 60s, quite fit but have dodgy knees. I really wanted to do the Gap Creek Falls walk. It is not so far but very steep especially towards the bottom. I took my time watching my footing stopping to enjoy the magnificent forest trees, the moss covered rock faces and listen to the sounds of all the birds. I was so elated to make it down, it was so pretty even though, when we were there, the falls were only had a very small flow. Going up was difficult especially in that first section from the bottom but well worth it. We had lunch at the pretty Boarding House Dam Picnic area, looked at the dam but didn't do the walk.

Stayed here 4 days - never been here before it is soo beautiful and serene. Has a beautiful well equipped play area for the children plus undercover bench seating and BBQ's. Children can easily ride their bikes along the foreshore. There is also a jetty if you don't have a dinghy to put in the lake for fishing. The Lakehouse Cafe is nearby. Approx 90 minutes drive from the south western suburbs of Sydney. And approximately 45KM south of Newcastle, close to Swansea.
