Before you book…

… there’s a few things we’d like you to know, because we aren’t crowned Australia’s Best Unique Accommodation for being standard! We’re a bit different, but that’s what makes us special. You’ll understand better when you get here.

  1. We have set check-in days at Pumphouse Point. Join us on either a Monday or Wednesday (for a two-night stay), or a Friday (for a three-night stay). Or, join these together and stay longer. From 19th January – 25th February 2024 you can check-in on a Friday for a 2-night stay or check-in on a Sunday for a 1-night stay. 
  2. We welcome all our guests together, and you’ll dine together too. It’s incredibly wholesome, but don’t be daunted; there’s plenty of opportunities for quiet self-reflection, a romantic row or a secluded picnic in peace.
  3. Like being left to your own devices? You won’t find butlers or stuffy silver service here, but our small friendly team will make you feel like you’re guests in their own homes. Refreshing, just like the wilderness itself.

Boats + eBikes


ON TWO WHEELS

From the saddle of our e-bikes, you’ll find secrets beyond your bushwalking limits.  Pack a picnic with Tassie pinot and find an untouched patch to lay your blanket.  Pedal slowly (if you even need to!), you’ve got all day, and the e-bikes are free.


JUST DRIFT AWAY

Row yourself into new depths on sheltered mountain waters amid pure highland air. This may be the moment it hits you… You’re somewhere you’ve never been, in a Pumphouse Point dinghy, exploring hidden coves, entirely removed from everyday life. Let the lake guide you.


CAST INTO THE DEEP

Pumphouse Point is a trout fisherman’s paradise, with world-class fly fishing on the door step – literally . A member of the Tasmanian Trout Guides and Lodges Association, we use and recommend the best guides in the business.

MEET THE LOCALS

Pumphouse Point is home to a community of furry hosts:  wallabies, echidnas, native quolls, possums, wombats, the famous Tassie devil and a wide variety of birdlife. And of course, forever hiding in the shallows is the Pumphouse platypus.


REFLECT BY THE LAKE

Let the mystique of Lake St Clair capture you for a moment, to hear the gentle lapping of water, smell the forest and breath the pure air. Our lakeside bush seats provide a calm setting to reflect on the things that are most important to you.


THE WALL IN THE WILDERNESS

Artist Greg Duncan is creating a masterpiece of epic proportions: hand-carving the history of the central highlands into massive Huon Pine panels, 3m high and 100m long. An oasis in the bushland, The Wall is unlike anything else in the world.

Bookings are required at least 24 hours in advance. Book here.


PHOTOGRAPHER’S PARADISE

Once you have filled two memory cards with photos of the Pumphouse floating over the mist at sunrise, venture off into the wilderness to discover a broad range of flora, fauna, streams and beaches to capture in stills forever.  A whole new canvas then emerges after dark, as the sky fills with a billion stars.
