We spent our Grand Final long weekend at Rules Point and have to say it was absolutely amazing in every way. Sensational.
The site is a combination of several outhouses, within a tidy clearing in the bush, perched right above the upper reaches of Lake Tyers, at the end of a track from the main house. It is secluded, embedded, and natural.
The amenities available on site allow for luxuries well beyond those usually associated with camping. There are two cabins to sleep in with fireplaces, a bathroom with a hot shower, and a very well equipped gas kitchen with a generous fireplace enough for the coldest of winter nights. The adjoining deck to the kitchen is a highlight: with hammocks, a sensational long bench, and bar chairs provided, it overlooks a painterly view which will sweeten cold beers tenfold.
Fishing as a past time around Lake Tyers is brought to a new level at Rules Point, especially for amateurish fishermen like ourselves. Sarah and Stu have canoes/kayaks that allow you to venture out onto the lake (bring your own life jackets). And there is a pontooned platform right below the kitchen. The sandy banks, simply put, are extremely conducive to flathead.
Finally the best and fairest of Rules Point are Sarah and Stu themselves - two of the nicest, most generous people you would ever meet. We were greeted with eggs and firewood on arrival, and their gregariousness and willingness to share their beautiful pocket of the world with us is unreal.
Thank you so much!
