The room was felt new and very comfortable. Loved the atmosphere around the resort. Felt like going to an adult summer camp. Very low key, happy hour, live music at night, killer sunsets. Would highly recommend.

There are really no other options for lodging in the King's Canyon area so if you want to see it, this is where you stay. The people at the resort were very nice. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom very nice. The food in the restaurant in the evening was tasty but the complimentary breakfast was a bit lacking in quality though they did offer more fruit than other similar places. We stayed in several national park lodges in Tasmania and those lodgings were far superior to this one at much less cost. I know this is a remote location so that adds to the cost, but the accomodations and food provided did not warrant the price that was charged.

This place had nice views . The room was pretty big but couldve done with a basin .wouldve been a quiet room but kids in next room were sick so could hear them coughing . Not the propertys fault . The bistro was a big space but half the meals on menu were unavailable and we went early but the meals we got were very tasty . The staff were pretty plesant and the one woman musician was good too.

Would recommend but just for one night
Room was okay for one night- tired paintwork but clean enough and toilet block and showers were clean with plenty of hot water in the showers
The bar was great- good value happy hour and large selection of food. Food was a little dry but okay.
Had the buffet breakfast which was good value
Would recommend if passing through and need a place for one night
We stayed in the basic room- double bed but not en suite

The room was ok, but we were not advised when booking that the room did not have a bathroom, but a group/common bathroom and toilet that was a 30 meter outside walk. The price we aid for the room should have included a private bathroom within the room.
