Wonderful
The house was just as advertised, but even better than in the photos. The bedding, kitchen supplies were all very generous. The kayaks were a lot of fun for the kids. I loved being so close to the beach for long walks. It’s a very very nice house ! And lovely location.

Wonderful base for a Maria Island trip
The Lodge was a fantastic place to stay for our group of two families. Lots of room, well equipped kitchen, and even sea kayaks. We used this as a base for a day trip to Maria Island, being less than 10minutes to drive to the ferry terminal. Craig was very responsive to all communications, and I would love to come back and stay for a longer time to explore more of this beautiful area of Tasmania.

Girls over 65 Orford stay.
7 of us friends enjoyed our 2 night stay at “The Lodge”. We were expecting Bob (Hawke) to meet us !!! We enjoyed our stay, plenty of room, beds comfortable and great showers 👍 We went over to Maria Island as my father was born and lived on the Island in 1924 for 12 years. Had a lovely time. Good place to stay.

Great location with loads of options
House is super clean and spacious with all amenities available. Wonderful flat front yard to enjoy a BBQ. Also, very close to beach access and a walking path to take in the sea views. We had a great time there at the Easter holidays. While the weather wasn't totally on our side on some days, we had plenty of games to play in the large living space.
