About this property

Cozy Retreat Near the Lake

  • Just 300m from the lakefront and shops, Armstrong Cottage is the perfect getaway in the heart of Paynesville. This charming two-bedroom, one-bathroom home offers a warm and inviting space to unwind.

    The secure yard is ideal for medium to large dogs, so your furry friends can enjoy the trip too! In the backyard, gather around the open fire pit (BYO wood) for cozy evenings under the stars. Plus, with an outdoor TV, you won’t miss a moment of the big events while soaking up the fresh air.

    Whether you’re exploring the Gippsland Lakes or just kicking back, Armstrong Cottage is your perfect holiday escape!
