Long dirt road to get there but dont be put off. Great hidden spot. Pete is a great host and really makes your stay. The communal fire area is very special. Just lovely. The cabins are modest but clean and the location is magic.

My apprentice and I Recently installed solar on the resort. It was the most enjoyable job I've done by far. It is a magic location right on the lake, surrounded by bush and close to pristine beaches. It was so good we took an impromptu break in the middle of the job and my family came down to enjoy the place. Rooms are basic but clean and comfortable with good amenities. Great for a young family like mine. Pete and Paula have fairly recently taken over and it's great to see the time effort and energy being put into rejuvenating the resort. They were absolutely fantastic hosts and I would recommend

Just what we were after - a quiet getaway. Situated right on Wonboyn lake with it's bushed surrounds and accompanying whistling birds and the occasional kangaroo, our cabin was rustic but quite comfortable. Multiple heaters which do a great job, ammenaties and tv are adequate for the locale and no complaints here. The owner is very personable and accomodating and is continually working on the resort and always has his hands dirty improving this, literally, hidden gem. If you're into fishing you'll be in paradise as you'll have the entire jetty and lake to yourself and it's so serene.
