The stairs were scarily steep (spiral staircase), although I understand why - there would be no room for them otherwise, but I have a phobia about steep stairs with no rise! The restaurant was lovely. The check-in and check out people were great. Coffees not refilled. No shampoo, hairdryer, which I expect. Very comfy firm bed. Very uncomfy couch! Lovely view of the lake. Firewood provided - we were able to have a roaring log fire. On the whole, good value for money.

Wonderful self contained stay at lakeside Evedon. The apartment has a good kitchen, wood fire and nicely refurbished bathroom, with comfortable beds and pillows. Each apartment has its own oars and life vests to use at the kayaks. And it was great to be able to access the lovely walking trails. The only thing to note and it was not a big problem, but BYO shampoo/conditioner and hair dryer if you need one during your stay. The restaurant on site did nice wood fire pizzas and the staff are friend and accomodating.

A location for a quiet get away. Evedon is going through a few minor refurbishings. We found they have missed out on a few small things that can make a holiday more enjoyable. Tissues, shampoo, conditioner, hairdryer and door or wall hooks in the bathroom would be a great improvement. There also seems to be a communication problem. We phoned ahead to enquire if we could order breakfasts. We were informed no, and no kettle or tea/ coffee making requirements were available in the accommodation. When we arrived we discovered that yes, we could order breakfast there and yes there was a kettle and tea and coffee provided in the accommodation. It could have saved us having to pack extras. The location is isolated so you cannot just go down the road to a cafe.

Great family getaway

Wonderful location in the beautiful Ferguson Valley. Kayaks for use each day on the lake, but bring your own fishing rod. Great bush walking track from the property. Good facilities, and the apartments are well equipped, but they are old and dark and could do with a freshen up. Also not a fan of bedspreads, quilts would be much nicer. Overall a great stay though, we all loved it, thank you

The Retreat that should Retire

On arriving at the property we were advised that there were no breakfast facilities, despite this being included in the Hotels..com advertisement. The Retreat is a very long way from anywhere to \"go for brekfast\". We were also advised that the fee for our stay had not been paid and that we could pay directly. The cost was substantially less than the cost we had already paid Hotels.com. The Cabin we stayed in was was very \"tired\" Kitchen cupboards looked extremely old and doors did not close. The floor had a significant slope. The way the Retreat is advertised (and priced!!) we expected something far more luxurious. At the end of the day it's best described as a cabin in the woods, with no additional facilities for guests (apart from a walk in the forest for which \"signposts\" were virtually non-existent).
We are extremely disappointed and would also expect a refund of the price difference from Hotels.com.

Great location and perfect for family getaways

Friendly family operated business in the process of renovating several of the apartments during the Covid pandemic. Ideal setting for families to kayak on the dam, walk on the property trails and maybe even MTB as well in the future. We enjoyed having our own pot belly stove heater and the great views of distant Bunbury lights at night. Had everything we needed for a 2 night stay and waking up to view the trees through the roof window was lovely. The apartments are adjoining and noise does carry at times, particularly if young families staying. There are also cabins which would probably be a better option as they're separated. Perfect location for access to Bunbury, Wellington National Park, Collie etc etc. all within less than half hour drive in such a scenic environment.

The setting on the lake is lovely and sitting on the balcony was really nice in the evening. The pizza at the restaurant was also excellent. However, our apartment was a bit tired for the price we paid. On our second night someone lit a fire in the fire pit and the smoke came directly towards our apartment, which meant we could not use the balcony. As the evening progressed our apartment became very smokey even though we had all doors and windows closed. It turns out the unused ancient air conditioner was venting smoke into the apartment and there was nothing we could do to stop it. It really wasn't the best stay.

More of a group stay

Lovely lake setting and very friendly staff. We stayed in an apartment which is more in the bush area of the resort. Pizza on a friday night on the restaurant balcony was very nice with a bottle of local wine. As there were only the 2 of us it felt like we were in the minority as it was mostly groups around us. This meant the noise level was a bit high and inside the rooms it seemed the walls were paper thin. To sit on our balcony area meant almost having to share the neighbours conversations. The room was neat and tidy and supplied with everything we needed.

A great bush retreat on a lake

We were able to change our accommodation from two story to single story to avoid climbing stairs.
The lighting in the kitchen area needs an upgrade.
Fans in the rooms would be good.
Couldn't find a fish in the lake, but it was fun trying - the sunset was spectacular.
Was able to use the restaurant gas BBQ when the other portables were in use.
The Cabin was quiet, and comfortable and provided us good access to the Ferguson Valley - pity most wineries/breweries/ facilities were closed ( most things only open on weekends ???)

Great place to relax and unwind

Great place to get away and relax and unwind.
Whether to relax on the balcony over looking the lake with a nice beer or wine, going for a walk, swim or fishing.
You can also sit by the open fire pit (out of fire season that is.)
They have paddles and life jackets in the room if you want to go on one of their kyaks or boards.
The restaurant was lovely.
The room was great, nice and clean even had a wood fire place

Nice location However!!!

This Evedon is a great location to sit back and relax whether it be winter or summer, the rooms a big enough and the staff a very friendly and willing to help out. The down side is the rooms are looking very tied and could do with some TLC and a fresh coat of paint.

Great place to unwind

Great place to take in the scenery and unwind for a long weekend. Off the beaten track yet close to wineries and places to eat including wine tasting and restaurant at the resort. My wife and I enjoyed a morning walk before breakfast around the lake and watching the sunset to close the day off either around the fire pit lake side or on the verandah with a good red listening to the evening chorus of wild life.

A true retreat. Off the beaten track.

The buildings are very pleasing. The surrounding countryside is pretty, especially Ferguson Valley Road. It is essential to know that wineries and restaurants are closed early in the week. We had our own food with us and the kitchen in the chalet is very well equipped.
