Raffertys Resort

We had a Mother's Day High Tea with wife, daughter and granddaughter and it was first class with a lovely choice of savory and sweet Afternoon Tea type foods.

stayed there for 5 nights in house 605, which sleeps up to 9 or 10, we had WIFI and Foxtel , check in was great and very polite and welcoming. House 605 was great for a big family and location was a nice. shops are close by just note after 9pm its get very quite. kids loved the main pool, other pools are nice but smaller.over all good for 3 nights, and all there team have great customer service and polite. def will stay again.

Absolutely beautiful views and a wonderful place to meet friends for an early morning coffee. Mitchell greeted us with a friendly smile and was so polite when serving us coffee. Definitely coming back for a girls weekend over the Christmas break 🥂 ❤

We didn't stay here so I can't rate the rooms however we attended a wedding here and it was sensational. Great service, beautiful venue

A group of us(5 ladies) stayed this last weekend at Raffertys.
We were two days late in checking in for our 7day stay. We arrived late in the night. The manager of the resort Toni, went above & beyond. She was quick to the resort to give us access. She continued throughout our stay, along with the staff at the desk to be there to give an excellent service to us throughout our stay.
The resort is quiet & beautiful.
Highly recommended!!

Nice place close to Sydney. Those who doesn't want to travel far and have nice relaxing long weekend then you must try this place. It is on the shore of Macquarie River. Nice view. Lot of activities within resort and you can book water activities as well..

Right on the lake, we've stayed in 4 different villas over the years, all have been great (some with ovens/dishwashers and some without - so worth checking before hand). With 4 different pools, tennis courts and restaurant/pool bar, it's brilliant for a self contained holiday. Shops close by at Swansea. Highly recommended for young kids (check out Caves Beach). Great holiday spot.

Amazing place to be , very good pool and lake views

Great place to go with family. Plenty of things for the kids to do

We hired kayaks for early morning Mother's Day and had a fabulous time. The staff were super helpful going the extra mile for us and our morning on the lake was sublime. We're locals and have been meaning to do this for ages. I'll definitely be back - this time without the family so that I can immerse myself in the peace and tranquility of the lake as I kayak around Cams Wharf enjoying the views. Highly recommend.

Rafferty’s was the location that we chose for our wedding in December 2021. The day was even better then we could have imagined and we felt that both the ceremony and reception were perfect. We had many positive comments on the location and venue, and everyone thought the food was absolutely delicious! Samantha, the event manager was excellent and easy to work with and made sure everything we wanted for our big day happened. Rafferty’s also has a number of beautiful locations for photos and we were very well looked after. The bistro also has amazing dinner and breakfast options! We will definitely recommend Rafferty’s to anyone looking for a wedding venue and accommodation for their guests.

Thank you Brittany and the team at Raffertys for helping make our wedding day so perfect. Everything was so well organised and the most stunning location.

I went to a wedding which was absolutely amazing..Beautiful surroundings..Fantastic location

My husband and my 7 children have been coming here for the past 3 years. Over the years Raffertys Lake Bar Bistro continues to amaze us with their great service and food. Beautiful scenery and beautiful staff. I will definitely recommend coming here as it is very welcoming.

Bistro and Bar Sunday 18/9 for family get together. Great atmosphere, tasty food, staff were very attentive. Surroundings beautiful, outlook to Lake Macquarie unforgettable. 5 Gold Stars. Thank you.

Went here for a wedding, staff were amazing, venue was beautiful.
The food was absolutely superb, the staff served professionally and quickly with just enough updates on everything without disturbing the celebrations.

Went here for a friends wedding. The staff were professional, busily making sure that everyone was cared for in the bar and serving tables. Food was good and amazingly they were able to deliver meals to the guests in a short period of time. Great venue with majestic views of the lake and the grounds are a lovely place to stroll around in and just relax.

This is our second visit to the resort in the last 4 years and have had a wonderful time again with the kids. The food in the cafe was excellent and fresh. So good that they have a heated pool which is covered too, so perfect for those rainy days.

Enjoyed a family dinner here on 28/12 which was fun. Food was great and service attentive and flexible (important when you have lots of kids in tow). I can't remember the name of the lady/supervisor who took care of us on this night (sorry) but a shout out to her in particular for making us feel welcome and relaxed.

Great accommodation fantastic setting
