Perfect place to stay with famy and friends for the Blue Lakes 24 hour challenge. We loved the flexible sleeping arrangements with two sleepouts. Kitchen is well equipped and the BBQ and deck was fantastic. Such a great location with amazing Bird life!
6 / 10Average·Apr 2025
We had a lovely family time here. The accommodation is a bit tired. The sleepouts are in need of repair. We were lucky with the weather - if it was wet, the living area would have been crowded. No wifi.It felt a bit pricey.
