Amazing views

We stayed in the tiny house on the lake. It was fantastic. The view was unbelievable. It had a full kitchen and large fridge. It was small but very comfortable. There was no bathroom in the cabin but the shared bathroom facilities were close by and there was a very clean porta potty closer by. We were there for 2 nights and wish we had more time to stay there.

Decent campsite with glamping style tents

I will only comment on the glamping tents as that’s where we stayed. Good standard, perhaps over-priced for the standard. Friendly staff and good service. Showers on site were of a good standard Glamping tent area had a gas grill and washing up point, a central fire pit and a games tent. All in positive

Fun glamping experience!

Will definitely stay here again! Beautiful location on the lake and only a 5min walk to town. The bell tent was very comfy and clean, the kitchen had everything we needed including a refrigerator, and the bathrooms and showers were great. We loved swimming in the lake, having dinner by the fire pit, and grabbing a latte from the food truck in the morning.

Glamping!

We had a good, comfortable glamping experience at Lake Hawea. The tent was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the area is beautiful. Check in was easy and friendly. The heated mattresses were definitely a bonus!

We booked a lake side tiny cabin which doesn’t have any toilets or washrooms attached for a day but we reached late. Thought our key was given to us but since it was raining and toilets/kitchen/bathrooms were far we thought of changing it. But we kept calling the number written on the wall of the reception but no one picked. This makes us wander what if in night we need some help n these guys won’t even pick up. We didn’t have any water in our room n we had to walk in rain for toilets n water n food. Rest the stay was good, just like mentioned but we didn’t know that facilities will be this far
