Property Details

The recently rebuilt Lodge (Jan 2008) commands an absolute riverfront position on the southern bank of Arthur River, just upstream of where it flows west into the pounding surf of the Southern Ocean.

The Lodge consistently exceeds the expectations of its guests, some of whom state that this was their best accommodation in Tasmania (see unsolicited testimonials).

The Lodge can be rented as a single large property, or each Unit separately.

The unusual and stylish design of the Lodge was significantly influenced by the sprawling family "shack" from which it was developed and by the wish to showcase the view, whilst trapping the warmth of the sun. The result is a one-of-a-kind design, with interesting and varied angles inside and out. The visual impact of the unusually spacious living areas is enhanced by their high, raked ceilings, exposed beams and by the clean modern decor.

Both of the sunny living/kitchen/dining rooms and the extensive front patio look out to the north and west over the stupendous view of the ocean and Arthur River. Few properties in Tasmania could claim a better ocean/river view from both inside and out. The patio is sheltered from the south and south-west winds. Market umbrellas provide shade.

The Lodge won 2 awards:a national one for accessible accommodation (Downstream Unit), and one for the best large group accommodation in Tasmania.

Each unit is a sun-trap. Even it is freezing outside, you will be warm, as the units are well insulated and heated throughout. Both of the spacious living/kitchen/dining rooms have a wood stove for which wood is provided. Alternatively, use the reverse-cycle air-conditioning. The 2008 rebuild included completely new kitchens, quality new furnishings, fittings and decoration throughout.

The entire Lodge is ideal for 2 families, or for groups up to 12, if the double sofa bed is used in the main room of the Upstream Unit. An internal connecting door gives easy access between the 2 main rooms.
