We had a fantastic time staying at Dalrose Retreat over the weekend with my wife and dog. The place was amazing — plenty of room, beautiful space, and so relaxing. It was the perfect getaway and we re...ally appreciated how welcoming and comfortable everything was. Highly recommend and we’ll definitely be back!

Amazing weekend getaway with our friends and two dogs! Lauren was super friendly and responsive. She also provided a handy booklet with local things to see and do. The retreat was super clean and it had everything we needed. Can't wait to come back!

Having moved to Gippsland nearly a decade ago, I have loved how it has a bit of everything - from snow covered mountains to endless stretches of beach. My favourite activities are any that involve being outside enjoying some fresh air and a good view, so Gippsland seemed like the perfect place to settle.

Farm Land

After having a break in the lake, we drove back to our accommodation and came across the most picturesque farm property. With the sun slowly setting over the hill it was the perfect time to have a few beers and chase the dogs around in the paddock! An easy spot to find but hands down one of the highlights of the trip.

George Creek Streamside

We explored the George Creek Streamside Reserve with the dogs, and there are a few different walking tracks alongside the creek.
Blue Pools

Blue Pools

Tucked at the base of an enormous hill, with a pebble beach perfect to lay on in the sun and have a few beers. A dog friendly lake gave the dogs a much loved play in the water whilst we all drifted on flamingo lilo's basking in the arvo sun! Rope swings, small and large cliff jumps let us test our nerves as the day went on. A secret little gem hidden deep in the east, with very few people enjoying it on a 38 degree day.

Freestone Creek

We took the dogs down to Freestone creek and explored the area, there's four-wheel drive tracks and heaps of swimming spots, the dogs absolutely loved swimming and chasing the butterflies

We made some new friends (Nova and Chloe) to accompany us on our walk as we explored the surrounding farmland and rivers.
