The property is the best there is around in that area and only a 15min drive to Thredbo. Great for families and has so many amenities for all whether you have small children, teenage children or a getaway for 2 there is something at the resort for everyone.

Fantastic stay complete with wildlife, good weather and spectacular sunsets. Room very comfortable. Only dissapointment was that the restaurant was closed in the evenings (food in the bistro was very good, but more limited menu and not the same ambiance as lakeside restaurant)

Relaxing stay.

Disappointed with lack of free wifi. Not available in studio apartment and only working in cafe, so not before 10 am and not after it had closed. Was offered an hour for $10! No air conditioning and was quite hot during the afternoon.

Beautiful location; chalet itself nice but no wifi; no clothes hangers; no batteries in aircon remotes; tennis courts in dangerous disrepair- ran into falling, rusted metal surrounding/enclosure; clearly no maintenance in a very long time; breakfast was always cold (ie the ‘hot’ food; shrivelled mushrooms; cold ‘toast’; cold roasted tomatoes; dinner really average despite cost; oysters not fresh - stuck to shell.). If l were an owner, I’d be worried about the quality of services offered by resort. I wouldn’t return.
