Very good

Beautiful scenic area. Well maintained bush property. Beautifully appointed quality cabins to stay in. Meals at the Wilderness Centre lovely. Lots of short and longer walks beginning and terminating here. Very popular with hikers of all ages.
So isolated, situated in the national park with the closest grocery store one and a half hours away. Beautiful setting. Room could use some plates and cutlery but the lodge let us borrow some. Basic and clean, Molten Brown products were a nice touch. Pricey for a campground ($400 per night) but I think that may have been because of the time of year between Christmas and New Year and for the convenience of being right on Lake Sinclair.
Fitout was very Bunning / K mart Quality, all white interior with no pictures needs an interior designers touch, Kitchen had no Nespresso or Microwave far to basic, deal breaker was Lodge 15 is by the lake with a mean window in the kitchen so high we couldn't see out and no picture window facing the Lake - so I felt very ripped off!! Space was good and the bed was great, also very warm
While some may consider it a bit pricey the lodge is an excellent location to stay at, in very close proximity to wilderness especially in winter. It has very warm sleeping quarters and living amenities and excellent food to enjoy.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Great stay with excellent dining options. Lake is beautiful in morning just down from chalet. Mo and other staff were very helpful.
The food in restaurant was alittle pricey but I thought worth it. The veggies were crisp and not being a big bread eater, the entree bread was crisp and light, as was the toast in the morning. All food is organic and it absolutely made a taste difference for me.
Loved the cabin - clean, cosy, well appointed & peaceful on the edge of beautiful Lake St Clair.
I don't wish to criticize the reception & restaurant as I realise it must be very hard to get staff in such remote places at the moment, however the reception person-in- training was so out of place with such limited English & knowledge of the local area. Good on you & him for trying tho & for deferring to management when we had an issue
A beautiful destination, great facilities, a little expensive, but being in the middle of nowhere, it was value for money. The receptionist on arrival was extremely busy, and alone, but was an absolute gem~ should be commended for his patience, pleasant attitude and acknowledgement of those waiting. The gin was awesome.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Property was sold as a studio sleeping 3. Was not a studio but a bed with a bathroom - with apparantly the option of a portable bed as requested. The description of the property sold on wotif did not in any way match the reality. For $420 tariff dreadful value . I arrived there with my adult son and had to upgrade to a room with kitchen facilities and a lounge so we could at least sit down - this cost was close to $580 for the night . The couch/ sofa bed was vinyl and peeling and looked like it came from the tip shop. No dry pan, chopping board or adequate kitchen supplies . Advise anyone contemplating to give lake st clair lodge a big swerve / dreadful value for money and tired and shabby. Would never g back
