This a great place to stay between Adelaide and Melbourne . It’s for the nature lovers , rooms are comfortable and clean . The stars at night are amazing as there are no city / town lights . It’s well off the main road (15 minutes ) so you don’t get all the truck noise . George the emu is a real character to . Friendly and helpful staff and comfortable bed . Mr Le cafe in town is the place to go for food ..

We were there summer 2013-14 and enjoyed our stay a lot.- The accommodation itself was great! Very nice place, good price, (a range of areas to suit different budgets) huge area to watch birds and see wildlife right on the property (with fox proof fence) AND being on the edge of the Little Desert NP was fantastic.- In terms of current owners, it is owned/run by Conservation Volunteers Australia so seems unlikely they are bad folks. When we were there they had recently installed a new manager. We felt he perhaps didn't know as much and was a bit out of his depth. Not bad, or purposely unhelpful, but not really all that knowledgeable. HOWEVER they had also not long before hired a ranger (I think his name was Pete?) who was always on site and was extremely helpful and knowledgeable and bent over backwards to help us with everything we needed to know! He took us on spotlighting walks and drove over to the other huge 'fox free' area that Whimpey set up to look for Malleefowl and went on long walk with us there to show us the working mounds. Gave us directions to get to places in the Little Desert etc. He also showed us his amazing art work, aboriginal paintings, boomerangs and didgeridoos, very special!I would recommend the place.

The new owners here are absolutely lovely, great place to take the kids to meet and greet some weird and wonderful feathery and furry creatures. Accommodation is basic but reasonable and location is great right on the national Park to do plenty of 4wding and sight seeing around the region.

Great place to stay for educational camps. Facilities need some TLC following a couple of years of lockdowns.I'm sure this will improve over the next year. Hot water to rooms takes awhile to come through. Great location next to the national park. Heaps of wildlife within the fenced off area. The resident emu is friendly, especially if he thinks he can steal your food.

Wonderful feral-free sanctuary. Great place to stay or camp and explore the Little Desert. Hopefully the new owners keep the accommodation options open.

Helpful and friendly owners...we arrived late(8.30pm) and they happy to accommodate us. Room was spacious and clean, bed was wonderful and firm(obviously new). The down side is the walls are thin and everything from wardrobe opening and closing to toilet flushing and conversations can be heard.

GORDON RAMSAY needed immediately*** king suite=two single beds pushed together in a room that barely fits them. no tv in room. no hot water. closest food is the servo 10km away. broken white board and old vacuum left in walkway. I have spent over 200 nights in hotels in the past 3 years and this was the worst

We stayed over the weekend in a powered camp site. No allocated sites so it is just pull up wherever. Sites were ok, not the best. Rooms looked nice as to what others were staying in. Staff dissapeared on the Sunday and we were left by ourselves. Beautiful seeing that kangaroos coming in at night to graze on the lawns. Quiet and peaceful. A good place to retreat.
