Welcomed us brilliantly despite last minute booking. Even turned pizza oven back on to serve us a pizza despite our late arrival, and brought it direct to our room.

We had problems with check in , we arrived at reception about 15 minutes early and was informed our room was not ready, we said we would go and wait in the bar the receptionist said it would be about 30 minutes and she would ring when ready. We decided to explore the town and 2 hours later she rang. The room was nice and clean. But unfortunately I found the shower was so slippery with no safety at all my Husband could not possibly use it. We had a meal that left a lot to be desired. We went into town the following night and had a lovely meal. It is not really in my character to leave a bad review but felt I needed to.

It is is unique property. With great in house facilities. Bar and separate restaurant. Restaurant offering high quality food options at good prices. Continental breakfast great. It has a indoor heated pool(over chlorined) and a bottle shop. The surrounds are brilliant, and the ducks friendly. Rooms great size and bathrooms good.. just stay and enjoy!

Pizza and Pines
I was a bit disappointed, I didn't realise I booked a standard room and it got very warm in the timbered cabin. Had I known at check-in there was a spa and pool I would have jumped in and not rang management looking for an upgrade. Sorry no we are full - so no upgrades. But the manager did offer me a pizza from the bistro and a drink as it was getting late and maybe he knew I was getting hangry. That Margherita pizza was the best pizza I've ever tasted, thankyou very much and the drinks icy cold. The bed was crisp and comfy and we made our way to the pool and spa in the morning. Very delightful.

We stayed in a one bedroom apartment for one night and we could have stayed so much longer if it wasn't booked out! The apartment was so spacious, and had a great view overlooking a little dam. The kitchen was large and fully equipped, lounge room with couch, table, desk, and TV (could do with upgrading to a smart TV), the bedroom was so big, yet cosy, with one of the most comfortable beds we stayed on in our week long travel, and lastly the bathroom with huge shower, giant spa bath, and washer and dryer was as big as the kitchen! Overall, this room was one of the best we have ever stayed in. We dined at the restaurant, which was extremely pricey. We had a pizza (which was excellent), and fish and chips (most expensive piece of flake i have ever eaten, and was smaller than that you can buy at a fish and chip shop). Both were great meals, and everyone else's meals looked great, but way too overpriced. The grounds are very well maintained, and facilities are great.

Would not recommend, Nothing for our stay was a pleasant experience. Upon arrival- 6pm the front checkin section was blocked off with parked staff vehicles & most other parks taken Arrived at the room and the main room light didn’t work so unpacked in almost complete darkness using bed lamps The menu “sounded” very good Ordered a $54 steak with $10 extra side & mushroom sauce ALL veggies were pre cooked & microwaved to save time as the 2 poor blokes in the kitchen are run off their feet & visibly flustered from the pressure The sauce was stone cold yuck The side did not come out at all until we were ready to leave and were asked how were our meals We replied better if they came with what we ordered and not stone cold sauce and microwaved vegetables There is No seating outside rooms It’s a hike to the pool No towels at the pool unless you make the longer hike in the cold through the restaurant in your swimmers to “check out” a towel to return it in 4 degree weather while dripping wet at reception and walk back to your room freezing. Beds are at a guess the original mattress from the day the place opened 30 years ago because it’s impossible to sleep well on them The outside lights are installed on the cabin wall beside your bedroom window so it feels like the sun is out all night… also great for sleeping. Won’t be back and certainly won’t be recommending.

The property is in a nice setting. However, the meals are overpriced and very ordinary. flavour in the meal was substituted by way too much salt .. that was all you could taste. recommendation, stay there but eat elsewhere

Comfortable retreat
Spacious room with king bed. Good for a couple, but not friends, cause could not have it made into twin beds. Full kitchen with high quality cookware and dining ware. Dinner menu at the restaurant was rather limited. Buffet breakfast was good value. Wasn't aware there's a heated pool until we got there. It looked nice.
