Located on a quiet residential street right next to town and within walking distance of restaurants and shop. When I arrived, the neighbors were sunning themselves across the street. The neighbors are KANGAROOS! I was so enchanted to see kangaroos around the neighborhood each time I came and went. My room faced a sheep pasture framed by mountains where I relaxed and watched Super Fairy Wrens around the patio. Very pretty sunset from the patio. The young man who works there was very kind and I was able to do laundry. The room is a little dated but ultimately I think it works beautifully, the Lodge is just perfect for a peaceful mountain stay.

Could greatly benefit from room servicing where they didn’t bother to even make up the bed or do a minimum clean up which was quite disappointing. Overall a good budget stay in Halls Gap. The views beat all other minor shortcomings.
