Holiday rentals with lake access in Cairns

This was truly one of the best Airbnb‘s we have ever stayed in. It has everything and anything you could ever need. The beds are the most comfortable beds I’ve had in a hotel or Airbnb. The views and architecture of this house were phenomenal. It’s definitely a house. I would love to own and live one day. We had three great days up on the leg whiteboard in each day and plenty of space for everyone to still do what they needed to do and everyone not feel like that was stepping on each other’s toes.

The Lakeside Loft was absolutely beautiful. We stayed for my daughter’s first birthday and I couldn’t have asked for a better stay! We are locals to the region but staying at Cassi’s place really did feel like we were on holidays abroad. The house is one-of-a-kind and the location is picturesque. Cassi was an amazing host, she was very responsive to my questions and was kind enough to let us check out a little later to accomodate our little ones. The house was clean and spacious with plenty of extras! We really enjoyed our stay and made some core memories by the lake side, even being able to witness a duck migration! We will definitely be back to stay. Thanks Cassi for being a great host :-)

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lakeside property! The setting was peaceful and relaxing, and everything we needed was thoughtfully provided. We really appreciated the ample supplies; things like bin bags, dishwashing powder, paper towels, and spray and wipe were all stocked, which made our stay so easy and convenient. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and we all slept very well. A fantastic experience overall - we’d happily stay again!

Great place to stay with your own peaceful area of the lake and easy access to the private pontoon. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

A beautiful place to stay and relax. Away from the activity of Port Douglas but also close enough to restaurants etc. The gardens are spectacular and amenities of the resort are perfect. Would love to stay again.

A great little home in an idyllic setting by Lake Tinaroo. Walking distance to the Quirky little town of Yungaburra and within driving distance to many natural wonders of FNQ which are definitely worth visiting. We had a lovely time while staying in this lovely little home enjoying many a meal on the back deck, while taking in the view and watching different wildlife pass by. The home was very clean & comfortable and our host Michelle was easily contacted providing any assistance where we needed. I highly recommend visiting the area and staying at this peaceful lakeside property. We have had a wonderful time exploring Yungaburra and many iconic tourist destinations in the surrounding areas, it really is a beautiful part of the country.

We had a great stay at Kylie's place at Lake Tinaroo. It provided a great base for those who worked at the Rotary FNQ Field Days and for me it was perfectly placed to explore the tablelands. The accomodation itself was great, loved having the two living spaces for our group, we could be together, hang out, play some pool but also have a bit of space and privacy with the upstairs downstairs bedrooms. Very clean and all needs accommodated self catering wise with a great main kitchen well stocked with appliances etc. While we didn't get to take advantage of all the amenities that Kylie makes available I can see others really enjoying themselves in the local area with the bikes and kayaks. Highly recommend a stay at Kylie's and hopefully we can get back there some time.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful house on the lake at Tinaroo. The property is spacious, clean, and incredibly well-equipped—with multiple living areas, a billiard table, indoor and outdoor firepits, and so many thoughtful touches like kids’ games and a canoe for exploring the water. The views over the lake are absolutely stunning, and the outdoor seating areas are perfect for relaxing and soaking it all in. We stayed for a work event and really appreciated the chance to unwind here after the busy FNQ Field Days. The house was comfortable, peaceful, and had everything we needed. The host was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and checked in regularly to make sure we were comfortable. Whether you're looking to relax by the fire, paddle on the lake, or use it as a base to explore the Atherton Tablelands, this is the perfect place. Highly recommend!

Absolutely fantastic location, with fab food in site and the most beautiful surroundings. Huge shout out to Carmen for her attentiveness for our stay and also helping to make our vow renewal site look incredible

Gorgeous air bnb on the stunning lake barrine. Nice large room with beautiful furniture. Lovely place for a relaxing weekend. We would definitely come back!

Was a great location for a 1 night after the Mareeba Rodeo

Thank you 🙏🏾 very much for letting us stay in your house it was very nice 👍🏾 & close to where I had to go

We had a fantastic stay at Nicole’s place! The home was spotless, tidy, and thoughtfully arranged—nothing felt cluttered. Nicole was such a generous and kind host, offering quick responses and plenty of local suggestions even before our arrival, which would be super helpful if you weren’t familiar with the area. The little extras throughout the house made our stay even more convenient and comfortable. The view was absolutely beautiful, and even with a wedding happening nearby on Saturday, the atmosphere remained peaceful and there was still plenty of parking. We felt right at home and appreciated how everything was so well-prepared for a relaxing stay. 100000% recommend Nicole and her home—thank you so much for letting my family and I enjoy your lovely space. We will definitely be back again and again!

The location of the house and even just the entertainment area out back made this stay one to remember. Lots of memories made, even saw a platypus is the lake early one morning!

Very welcomed very clean and tidy. Very quiet location. Beautiful ground. Will go back and stay anytime. 5 stars from us

We had a great stay! Definitely recommend!

The Sugar Shack is a charming and truly comfortable oasis of calm and beauty convenient to much of what the Port Douglas and surrounding region has to offer. Everything about the shack is as described, clean, functional and easy to use. Importantly at this time of the year (December) when the heat and humidity have kicked in the shack is easily cooled. No surprises. Great atmospheric views of the mountains and plenty of interesting bird life around the property. Beautiful creek with clear water. An additional bonus was being able to bring along our young retriever and watch her enjoy the freedom of the well-kept paddocks and the security of a fenced cottage garden around the shack. Delicious eggs from their contented hens too! Kylie (who met us) and Nicki were efficient and friendly and very helpful with their local knowledge and the entire experience was very welcoming. Great hosts!
