Avon - Waterfront Retreat: Secluded lodges perfect for nature lovers
The Waterfront Retreat, one of East Gippsland's best-kept secrets, offers a tranquil escape on 20 acres of natural bushland along the banks of Lake Victoria. With 19 self-contained lodges ranging from 1 to 4 bedrooms, guests can enjoy lake or bushland views while catering for themselves in fully equipped kitchens. Just 15 minutes from Paynesville and 20 minutes from Bairnsdale, this peaceful haven is perfect for nature lovers, complete with a resident mob of friendly kangaroos.
Our two-bedroom lodges offer a peaceful family escape with lake views, a private deck with a BBQ, and modern comforts, including a fully equipped kitchen, washing machine, and cozy fireplace. Set in a quiet bushland setting, you can spot parrots, kangaroos, koalas, and echidnas, with complimentary food provided for bird and kangaroo feeding. Enjoy easy access to resort amenities like the pool, heated outdoor spa, free bikes, and activities such as kayaking, canoeing, fishing, and nature trails.
