Toorongo River Chalets

Although I'm a Celebrant, I was a wedding guest here 05/02/22. The gardens are beautiful and the reception room & outdoor landing/dance are were lovely. The meal tasted excellent, but way too small; ie: 1 dinner plate of lamb and 1 dinner plate of chicken was served to each table, to be divided by the guests for a table of 8. Alcohol was provided by the couple and served by venue staff.Accommodation is very expensive here at $600 per room, per night and is a minimum 2 night stay. Even to camp or stay in my own caravan here with no power or water is $25 per person per night, however they did provide a driver with a 6 seater golf buggy type vehicle, to pick up the campers & take us to the ceremony area on the other side of the property.

We had a wedding there on the 20/3.One word Brilliant.The staff the food was far beyond the call of duty.I would highly recommend this to anyone.We even took our caravan and parked down the bottom, no power.Showers and toilets not far away.Thank you for being such great and friendly people.

We were there to celebrate my nephew’s wedding. It was a magnificent setting, in the open air with seating for the immediate family and shading for the other friends. The reception area setting was magical, with quirky areas set aside for such food items as giant doughnuts for both big and little kids.What was most impressive was the quality and quantity of the finger food that appeared frequently throughout the evening. Assisting in this was a high ratio of staff who were so courteous, fun, knowledgeable about the food, responsive to requests, and generally pleasant to have around. They really made this special occasion even more memorable.Thank you all for one of the most heartwarming experiences ever. I couldn’t recommend you highly enough!

Thank you so much Troy and all of the team! Our wedding was everything we could have dreamt of and more! Everything we asked for was catered to, if we couldn’t find something or get something, Troy would find it for us. Every guest said it was the best or one of the best weddings they have ever been to because of how beautiful the venue is. This is by far the best place in Victoria to get married. Will never ever forget this beautiful venue and the staff that made our day so amazing. Thank you thank you thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I cannot praise this place enough. We stayed at the Mannagum chalet for the weekend and had our wedding at the venue by the river bank. The chalet was nice and cozy with a beautiful view. The staff went above and beyond. We were shocked and amazed at how much effort everyone went to to make the day perfect. Everyone was so helpful. It was definitely worth every cent. We will definitely be returning to the chalet and will definitely recommend the venue to friends and family for future weddings.

We recently had our wedding at Toorongo River Chalets. Our day went absolutely perfectly because of the fantastic team! Troy, Cathy and the rest of their team went above and beyond to make the day go smoothly and ensured all guests were well taken care of, so we could enjoy our day and not have to worry about logistics. I highly recommend the venue to anyone looking for a wedding venue or anyone wanting a little retreat away from the city.

We stayed in the Manna Gum Chalet and it was perfect for us, as we just wanted a place to get away and relax. Very comfortable and the gas log fire was so warm it was brilliant. Full kitchen Fridge, oven and microwave, dining area, Tv lounge sitting area and bathroom with massive double shower. Lovely comfortable QS bed and a separate set of bunks. Views from the cabin overlooked the winding Toorongo River and it is positioned just a short 3-5 minute drive to the Toorongo & Ampitheatre Falls. We didn't get to try the outdoor spa due to inclement weather at night and during the day we were out exploring Baw Baw, Noojee and The waterfalls and the Trestle Bridge walks. The Chalets are set on a massive alotment of land which is beautifully kept and had wonderful lighting signage and still maintains the natural environment. Will go back in the warmer months to fish and try out the spa.

Overcharged and no refund was given. Beautiful venue, would otherwise give 4stars. 5 stars for value for money had the correct amount been charged.

Do yourself a favour and escape the rat race to this unreal landscape. Beautiful river out the front. Close to the stunning Toorongo Falls. We sat out in the spa on dusk watching the sugar gliders climb the trees and glide into the sunset. Quite magical. Beautiful cozy lodge. Super private and only the sounds of the forest. We loved it and will be back for sure.
