Room was nice, but nothing special. Comfy chairs which is a bonus nowadays. Bottom of shower wasn't properly cleaned. Good meal with good proportions in the Lodge's restaurant which I would recommend.

Location of the lodge was great - close to the lake and walking tracks. The restaurant food and service was also very good. However, the lodge itself felt a little tired and outdated.

Room was great and plenty of space. My son didn’t want to use the upstairs beds because it was only accessible by ladder. The staff and food were great.
