Lovely and relaxing home
Despite staying amid the ongoing bush fire situation around the Blue Mountains, our group had a very enjoyable stay at this beautiful home, the photos didn’t do it justice! The moment we arrived, the home looked wonderful and the view was the cherry on top (even though there was some smoke in the mountain area it was still lovely! The amenities available were great, we didn’t even get around to using the downstairs entertainment area as we were all comfortable staying in the living room. All the rooms were very spacious and comfortable for everyone and it was very hard to want to leave! The area was very quiet and peaceful, its perfect for anyone wanting a nice relaxing getaway with a nice mountain view

Beautiful place to stay
The house is very spacious with all modern amenities and entertainment. Close to Katoomba and surrounding attractions but if you need to escape the crowds the serenity and views from the back verandah are just devine!!

Got it all ...
This place has it all - literally. Handwash, spray for cooking, teatowels, bbq, nice crockery and cutlery, all forms of cooking utensils, beautiful bed linen, towels, pool table, games galore, books, movies (projector in bottom room and tv upstairs to amazing views from everywhere you sit and comfortable furnishings that make it difficult to get up and leave. But when you do you can walk down the road and you're in the national park and on the bush path to the 6 Foot Track or a small walk to the main centre where quirky cafes abound. Great place for a weekend with family or friends.

Amazing views
Skycrest was set up with everything you need, the views were amazing. The only negative comment was the pillows were a little thin and uncomfortable, but overall loved the stay. The games room downstairs was fantastic for the kids

We were in town for a wedding and absolutely loved the property. From the traditional comforts, to the modern high speed internet and netflix on the big screen, this was a great house.

Beautiful house in a great location
Skycrest is a true slice of heaven! This property manages to make you feel like you are in the bush, miles away from civilisation, whilst remaining conveniently close to Katoomba village. The property is amazing and comfortable with stunning views over the Megalong valley from half of the property including the veranda. Highlights for me were the view, the pool table and the dinning room table which is a true masterpiece.
