First class breakfast. Cleanest motel I've ever stayed in, seriously. Very Friendly Staff. Magnificent Views. The decor has got to be seen to be believed. It's like staying inside a giant Cuckoo Clock. I loved it!

Peter Australia

Lodge: 1) I love the whole lodge including the rooms and the lounge area. It's not comfortable and warm. Rooms: 1) The room were well heated during the winter and I love the balcony. Everything is clean and beautiful! Breakfast: 1) The stay included complimentary breakfast and it's a wide spread with delicious food Location: 1) A distance from the chairlift but walk-able and beautiful sight along the way.

  • We just stayed there. There was only free parking at the bottom of the village. A long way from the lodge.

    Unfortunately, our lodge doesn't control the village roads and the village car parking. On busy weekends and public holidays, the village car parking is managed by the Falls Creek Resort Management.
