The owners have just taken over. They are intending to do more in near future to their liking. They did a great job in preparing and supporting us. The residence was of very high standard. The views are spectacular. The immediate garden environement needs some sprucing up which is likley the new owner's intenrion. Lots of nature around and we enjoyed the menagerie attached. Emus, kangaroos, turkeys, peacock, deer. I was sorry to leave them. They are suitably away from the residence. Quiet beautiful peaceful stay with good supplied internet

George River Park is a self-catering, completely self-contained one bedroom unit with a separate entrance, fully-equipped kitchen and private bathroom and living area. The property sits on 100 acres of pristine pasture and bushland ready for you to enjoy. It is bounded by 1.6 mi of the George River. By day, relax on the completely private sandy beaches and refresh with a cool dip. You may spot a local platypus or hand feed the resident kangaroos, emu, white deer and other feathered friends. After dark, grab a torch and explore the property when possums, wallabies and owls are most active.

The George River offers trout, blackfish and bream fishing and you can try your hand at fishing on the property's own private and secluded part of the river. A fishing license is required and can be obtained online or at Service Tasmania in Cecilia Street, St Helen’s.

Explore some of Tasmania’s beautiful East Coast heritage areas such as The Bay of Fires, Wineglass Bay and the Freycinet Peninsula, the East Coast wineries, extensive hiking trails, waterfalls and the world-famous mountain biking tracks around St Helen’s and Derby.

George’s Bay is known as the deep-sea fishing capital of Tasmania. Try an ocean charter or visit one of the local George’s Bay oyster farms or seafood restaurants.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.1 for a two-person trip.

Thanks! You'll receive an email as soon as the property answers your question.

  • Is your private beach next to the property or do I need to use a means of transportation to go there?

    Hi, apologies for the delay in responding but I have only just picked this up. Our property is 100 acres and is bounded by approximately 2.6km of the pristine George's River. There are a number of private sandy swim-able beaches on the river that are a short walk from the house. No need for transport to get there. However, if you are wanting to go to an ocean beach, the closest is an 8 km drive to Binalong Bay on the Bay of Fires. Public transport is NOT available but there is a single taxi in town that can be booked.

We sit on 100 acres of pristine pasture and bushland ready for you to enjoy. The property is bounded by 2.6 km of the George River. By day, relax on our completely private sandy beaches and refresh with a cool dip. You may spot one of our local platypus. Hand feed our resident kangaroos, emu, white deer and other feathered friends. After dark, grab a torch and explore the property when possums, wallabies and owls are most active. The George River offers some of the best trout, blackfish and bream fishing in Tasmania. Why not try your hand at fishing on our own private and secluded part of the river. A fishing licence is required and can be obtained online or at Service Tasmania in Cecilia Street, St Helen’s. We are the perfect launching pad for exploring some of Tasmania’s beautiful East Coast heritage areas such as The Bay of Fires, Wineglass Bay and the Freycinet Peninsula, the East Coast wineries, extensive hiking trails, waterfalls and the world-famous mountain biking tracks around St Helen’s and Derby. George’s Bay is known as the deep-sea fishing capital of Tasmania. Try an ocean charter or visit one of the local George’s Bay oyster farms or seafood restaurants.

Your hosts, Hugh and Celin, are keen travelers themselves and are passionate about helping guests make the most of their visit to this beautiful part of the world. Whether it is giving recommendations on what to see and do or sharing best kept local secrets, your hosts take a personal interest in every guest. Celin speaks Chinese, Japanese, English and a number of European languages, so is well equipped to assist our Chinese, Japanese and European friends!

George River Park is situated in an area of stunning natural beauty. Nestled between the tranquility and charm of George’s Bay, only 8 kilometers from the breathtaking shores of The Bay of Fires and less than an hour’s drive from the world famous mountain biking tracks of Derby, this property offers the nature lover access to an extremely wide range of activities and experiences.
