With almost a kilometre of river frontage, the retreat is perfect for fishing or swimming in the Clyde river, bush-walking in the local forests, or for use as a launching point for exploring the surrounding national parks.

Weekend Trip to Clyde River Retreat

Our family of four had a fantastic stay at Ross and Joanne's place. We hired Carisbrook, the larger home at the retreat. It was so comfortable with everything you need. A home away from home. Ross and Joanne are great hosts and communication was excellent. Our 15 year old is obsessed with fishing. He caught quite a few bass in the river. He was very impressed! The tall trees, the birds and the serenity made our stay a memorable one. We will definitely be back. The smaller cottages look just a comfortable too with everything you need. Thanks Ross and Joanne. You have a beautiful retreat. We will see you soon 👍🎣😊
