I stayed 3 nights at the Blue Gum Lodge. I was made very welcome, given cups of tea and glasses of wine and invited to sit with the family and join in the conversation. I was the only guest, so the shared bathroom didn't worry me. It's not 5-star accommodation, but the price reflects that. Ian and Diane and their... More

The hosts were nice people but seemed a bit busy with their other business interests of driving tourists around. The room we had did not have tea or coffee making facilities or TV and was downstairs, under the house with two other bedrooms and a shared bathroom. Like other reviews we found the smell and lack of cleaning off putting... More

We stayed for 3 nights at Diane and Ian's place. The location was excellent, overlooking the lake and the place was quite beautiful. The room is small but cosy. Diane and Ian are excellent hosts and very good company. Ian was a good guide on what to see and the smart way to do it too! We enjoyed our trip... More

We came across Blue gum lodge through a fellow traveller's recommendation and we didn't regret our choice to stay there. It's a little out from the main township, though only a 15-20min walk around the lake. This was perfect for us. Avoiding hoards of backpackers, waking up to bird song and breakfast overlooking stunning lake views was our idea of... More

My husband and I always stay at B&B's or Boutique hotels when we travel. In order to pick the places we will stay we rely on the pictures and descriptions on the internet. Lucky for us in our many years of traveling, we have always been happy with our picks because they have resembled what we saw on the internet.....until... More
